They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day and I couldn’t agree more. In Bali breakfast is usually included in the hotel prices but eating eggs on toast or the same breakfast buffet every morning will get boring after a while. That’s why we are lucky to have so many wonderful restaurants serving healthy, hearty and varied dishes to start your day with. Here are my choices for best breakfast in Bali 2016:
1. Betelnut – nutritious food with a view
Betelnut is set in a two-storey thatched bungalow overlooking lush rice paddies. It is a favorite among Canggu hipsters and surfers, located just a minute’s drive from the beach. They serve yummy breakfast bowls featuring granola, yoghurt and fresh fruits and delicious set menus accompanied by freshly-blended juices and smoothies.

4. Sisterfields – the favorite cafe/juice bar
Sisterfields’ smashed avocado with feta, lemon and lime juice and semidried tomatoes on grainy toast is a legend in Bali. They also serve breakfast bowls and great cold-pressed juices. The restaurant gets really crowded during breakfast so if you get tired of waiting you can always sneak over to Grocer and Grind.
