Remembering a Balinese Feast

I could rant a bit about the lousy customer service at Alain Mikli at the Short Hills Mall, or the retina specialist whose staff is so inept they took 4 days to respond to my request for more information, or ... oh bite me!  I may have missed last night's Taste of Montclair (which a colleague tells me was very tasty indeed), but that does not mean I have to miss Montclair Restaurant Week while kvetching about things ocular.
However, in my woulda, coulda, shoulda list of new restaurants I wish would open in Montclair, #1 would be something Balinese.  Probably the best two meals I've had in many a moon were served up on the island this past January (yes, that's why I had guest bloggers!).
The first, a homemade traditional meal made and cooked by my amazing guide's mother in a bale overlooking the Ayung River Gorge.  Those are rice baskets we wove (well, ok, the mom wove) that day.
The second, at French chef gone native's amazing Mozaic, a gourmand foodie destination located a stone's throw from where Eat Pray Love was filmed outside Ubud.
