Lombok, Indonesia,
March 2001 .... Sheraton Senggigi Beach Resort in Lombok takes
you on a culinary time trip back to the days of colonial Batavia,
queen city of the Far East, when the ships of the East India Company
sailed the entire ocean. This was a vibrant city where
Arabs, Chinese, Portuguese, Indians, Dutch, Germans and British
came to make their fortunes.
The new Sheraton Senggigi Spice Market, built like a Hollywood
stage set, provides the atmosphere to enthrall anyone wanting
to partick pate in the truly opulent but cozy atmosphere of a
Far East wining and dining experience. Surrounded by old antiques
and artifacts, colonial
style glass windows and soft creamy curtains, the feeling is old
world comfort. But let's not forget exquisite cuisine - the real
focus of an evening in the Spice Market. Done traditionally but
with a western touch. The Sheraton Chefs have created a menu of
Asian specialties that would have been in demand when Sir and
Madam with their exacting tastes dined out in Old Batavia. Full
use is made of traditional recipes and exotic herb and spices
to prepare tantalizing dishes.
One special night is devoted exclusively for Restate - created
by the Dutch that is a series of dishes presented much like family
style menu served at a long table.
You have of course rice accompanied by a host of other dishes
such as currips, dates, sautéed prawns, sterner fish, and
to assist, waiters and waitresses in truly colorful Batavia construes.
A promise of a therne night to remember. A menu of legendary creations
has been carefully clesigned to please even the most discerning
tastes. Included are, for example teasers like lumpia made with
Lobster and field mush room with peach, green chili and ginger
chutney or seared beef tenderloin cinnamon flavored curry sauce
with poached potatoes. Or how about crisp honey-infused breast
of duckling on coriander, sweet chili noodles and onion jam. Sheraton,
