Monique Brown & Andrew Duckworth

One of our favorite places to go for a delicious dinner and some cocktails made to perfection!

Andrew took Monique here for her 30th and man was she blown away. A beautifully intimate and cosy restaurant with possibly the most fanciest BUT filling menu. We will be honest when we sat down to eat neither of us knew what half the menu was (it was THAT FANCY) but my Gosh did this Australian head chef blow us away. Monique came home looking like she was about 20 weeks pregnant again. Highly recommend this for a lovely date night out. 

Another favourite breakfast spot of ours. Monique swears by their smoothie bowls and andy can never keep away from their Big Breakfasts. They also do a great coffee (Which is essential for the both of us!) For those that have kids- they have a cute little lawn with a mini (super safe) play house for the kids and often have kids activities (face painting, drawing ect.) available too! We recently took Mali and he sat beautifully in his high chair with his watermelon watching the kids play! 

A Brown family favourite! A hidden little gem with an incredible Indonesian menu and possibly the friendliest service in all of Bali. Mali also loves their thrones (aka. highchairs)! 

Possibly the coolest boho beach club located literally right on the beach. Amazing pools to dip into- a perfect place to spend the day grazing on delicious food while you lounge by the pool. Also perfect for an afternoon drink to watch the spectacular sunset! Bookings are essential to ensure a spot (In particularly for dinner), so give them a buzz or download Whatsapp (Text/Calls through wifi) and call them through this to book in a table.

Located in the heart of the famous black sand Canggu beach- this is the perfect little beach lounge and is what Andrew and I call "Instagram approved" due to its fame on the gram! Perfect for sunset drinks and a little dance!

Another fabulous restaurant located in the heart of Canggu (Along Batu Bolong Road). This unique restaurant is a rooftop sensation that gives you the best views in all of canggu of the beach and sunset! Perfect for sunset drinks! The menu on the terrace is Japanese, however they do have a downstairs restaurant which features japanese and famous indonesian dishes if you would like more variety. We recommend booking a table for incredible sunset drinks on the terrace then heading down for your meal if you are not the biggest Japanese cuisine lover :)

Located in Seminyak- This is one of the first places Andrew and Monique went together the first time they came to Bali (photo to check out how young and cute we once were!). Absolutely amazing architecture as you enter and features yummy food and drinks- great place to head to for some afternoon drinks on the beach watching the sunset followed by some good food.

Bali is such a foodie Island and they have really embraced different dietary needs! There is a ridiculously HUGE selection of restaurants that cater to all dietary requirments! There is no shortage in vegan/vegetarian options as well! Kynd Community is a fantastic vegan little restaurant that even Andrew (the biggest meat lover of all time) approves of! They have put together a 54 page Vegan guide for Bali! Feel free to check it out by clicking the link below so you can plan in advance some must go/order from restaurants! 

Affordable and gorgeous set up- the place to be if you want to feel like a queen/king! They offer awesome couple massages as well! Is also right next door to Starbucks so is obviously a favourite of Monique's.

Incredible spa/massage options as well as all your medi/pedi needs taken care of! Another place that does fabulous couples massages and truly take care of you! Expect complete relaxation and privacy- its AMAZING!

The best Spa in Bali. The Brown girls have been coming here for at least 10 years and it is such a luxurious, special and absolutely to die for spa. It is situated closer into town in between Seminyak and Kuta but my goodness it is simply amazing. 

Feel like a million dollars at this beautiful chic Lounge. Known for its innovation in beauty, impeccable service, spa lounge setting with resort wear boutique and of course its unique 24K GOLD Facial.
