Marking a milestone in its journey, Ikan Restaurant unveils a menu that brings together the essence of fire, smoke and coastal heritage,
Marking its second anniversary, Ikan Restaurant at The Westin Resort Nusa Dua Bali introduces a refreshed menu that reimagines Indonesian coastal cuisine. Drawing inspiration from fire, smoke, modern techniques, coastal heritage and sustainability, the new offerings highlight the rich culinary traditions of the archipelago while embracing contemporary influences.

The latest menu evolution goes beyond classic interpretations, presenting an engaging dining experience through bold flavours, locally sourced ingredients and innovative cooking methods.

Using locally sourced ingredients and innovative techniques, they aim to present familiar flavours in a new light.
The menu introduces an array of new dishes designed to take diners on a culinary exploration of Indonesia. Nusantara Bites features small plates such as Lawa Bale, a white snapper dish with green chilli and coconut dressing, and Lampung beef tartare with sambal ijo and salted egg yolk. broth & spice brings comforting flavours with signature soups like Bogor Laksa and Soto Ayam, which showcase Indonesia’s time-honoured culinary traditions.
Daging Nusantara highlights premium meat selections, including Babi Guling, Balinese spiced porchetta and Tongseng lamb, a spiced lamb chop prepared with a balance of classic spices and modern techniques. For dessert, Sweet Traditions offers contemporary takes on Indonesian classics, including Klepon Cake and Molten Bali Chocolate Volcano.
