HOME CAFE & BAR
Shopping on Jl Laksmana, Seminyak
Goodness me, this long stretch of road is really firing! Many new boutiques are up & trading, so on with your walking shoes - visit Dinda Rella for pretty fashion, next door is the shoppette, Bouddha Bazar with sample trinkets displayed on a wall, which are actual charms for bracelets & chains, D’oR by Kerry Grima introduces more flirty fashions for the younger set. Across the road, noticed a DeLighting sign, obviously they see a niche for some of their fantastic lights & then Milo’s is also moving in! And finally, sks - simple konsep store where an eclectic mix of fashion, design & entertainment items is waiting to be purchased.

Moving further down Jl Laksmana (past all the restaurants) on the left hand side is a new shiny place called Home –coffee & bar. Another new coffee stop that will give you the pep to continue around the Jalan. Delicious pastries, cup cakes, sandwiches & jars full of sweeties. Apart from the quiet luxury to sit & work on your laptop in aircon comfort (free internet service) you could choose the back deck area to lounge. The lovely young owners tell me that HOME will be open for a regular Sunday BBQ Sizzle from 4.30pm to 10pm. Home is clean & fresh, white with chartreuse & some walls handpainted with modern motifs. Have a very good feeling that this café will do very very well. Jl Oberoi, No 3 Seminyak.
