My favourite when I visit in Bali is eating Ayam Betutu or in English, we call as “Betutu Chicken” (but if you don’t want to have chicken, you can change to duck meat). The spiciness taste and full of spices make this menu the best menu and a distinctive feature of the island of Bali. So for cooking, chicken or duck meat that will be cooked is filled with spices first in the stomach, and then wrapped in banana leaves. After that, meats will be burned with fire for 24 hours. In the end, betutu meat will be tastes very tasty, spicy and delicious. This is what makes me fall in love with the betutu menu. Oh it takes about 60.000 rupiahs per piece of betutu chicken or about 4USD. My favourite is eating Betutu chicken with hot rice and drink coconut water. It tastes so good! Usually my parent prefers something different like betutu duck or grilled pork meat … and all those so delicious too.

@Janet357 Personally I do not know how much income I need to live comfortably. But with my current salary I feel enough. Maybe it depends on your lifestyle too.
