Potato Head Beach Club makes its grandeur mark at one of
Bali's prestige location surrounded by some of the best restaurants, bars, and
retail. "We wanted to create something original from Indonesia that could
be seen and enjoyed by the Indonesian and international audience. As a local
venture, we wanted to make our presence felt within the international scene and
Bali seems to be the perfect stepping stone," says co-owner Ronald Akili.
"There is definitely a personal touch to what we do.
The menus in Potato Head bistro are based on nostalgic home recipes and
personal memories from our travels. We put our own collection in the
restaurant, from the artwork to the furniture. We want people to see that we
put our soul into each projects and that we've invited them into our
lives," added Ronald.
Since introducing PHBC in 2010, both owners has successfully
gained numerous international recognitions from various publications and
medias. Known for its multi-cultural blend of gastronomy, libations and
entertainment which imbues music, art and fashion at the same time, PHBC has
given Bali and its visitors the best of island living with a memorable and fun
experience.
Designed by acclaimed architect Andra Matin as a modern take
on the Coliseum, the towering elliptical facade is crafted in Potato Head's seminal
trademark of mismatched 18th century teak shutters collected from across the
Indonesian archipelago. The beachfront bar and 500-square meter emerald lawn
leading to an infinity pool is all housed inside a state-of-the-art
amphitheater.
Drawing focus on the ground floor is the Potato Head bar;
designed using ideas from the owners' personal collection of vintage midcentury
furniture. The selection of handcrafted cocktails offers a cool and opulent
fusion of both old and new inspirations carefully combined with cutting edge
mixology techniques. Like its counterpart in Jakarta, the continually evolving
artisanal cocktails at PHBC are a high point.
Beyond the lounge-bar space, PHBC houses three restaurants
where each of them presents its own distinct personalities. Potato Head Bistro
serves comfort food inspired by international home cooked recipes. On the other
hand, Lilin offers a tapas selection of South East Asian cuisine and choices of
exotic live seafood as its main highlight. The journey is not complete without
savoring Chef Take's dishes mad with passion and love, at the elegant, yet
homey, chandelier-lit restaurant that is Tapping Shoes.
