Asian street food, crafted cocktails, remarkable setting.
MAMA SAN, SEMINYAK, BALI
Mama San Bali, a two storied three-in-one kitchen bar & lounge serving lunches, dinners and evening tapas. The word Mama San is an old term denoting a woman in a supervisory role within South East Asian gentlemen’s drinking establishments.
CONCEPT
“The dream has always been to open a place that is more than just a restaurant” says Will Meyrick, the executive chef and innovator behind Bali’s success story Sarong restaurant.
“An environment where people can feel comfortable”, Mama San is for anyone who likes to lounge in style and eat quality South East Asian food without it being too expensive.
THE MENU
Will Meyrick has developed a mouth-watering menu. Expect authentic dishes from the Indonesian archipelago, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Thailand, Cambodia & Vietnam, served in layered tiffins, on banana leaves and thali trays.
Signature dishes include beef rendang braised in coconut milk, crispy “confit” pork hock on the bone with nahm jihm jaew & nam pla prik, slow cooked lamb shoulder rogan josh with garam masala, tomato, nutmeg, black pepper & coriander and a range of incredible salads, dim sums and wok-frys.
THE PLACE
Caroline Usher is responsible for the interior design of Mama San. The unique purpose built warehouse interior blends vintage and retro eras, with tan leather oversized Chesterfield sofas, chairs, mirror walls, oriental side lit screens and quirky one off art pieces, including a 10 x 4 meter retro inspired wall mural wallpaper “Mama San”, created by textile designer Justine Missen.
A range of black and white pictures showcasing Will Meyrick’s food travels around Asia adorn one of the walls in the ground floor dining room and scatter cushions help to create a homely feel on both levels. Respecting the Mama San tradition the entire upper floor is open plan accessing the terrace bar, his/her toilets and a 1000 bottle wine retail room allowing consumers to buy wine by the bottle or case.
