One of the more exciting new openings in Bali, Electric Eel is a two-storey beach house overlooking the scenic Echo Beach in Canggu. Another brainchild of Tai “Buddha” Graham with Adam McAsey, you’ll be able to feast on no-nonsense cuisine elevated with premium ingredients. Take the cured Iberico coppa paired with classic servings of rockmelon and gremolata (green herb sauce), or the steak frites with grass-fed organic tenderloin, hand-cut fries, herb butter and black peppercorn gravy bring the charm of the Parisian bistro to the beachside. Graze on a charcuterie board while sipping on a cocktail or natural wine.
