Garlic Lane is not an "Aussie name".
This street was known as Garlic Lane to locals and tourists alike when it was just a dirt track, so rough it was a 'no-no" for taxi drivers to enter.
You carried your luggage from either Jl.Melasti or Jl Padma.
Until just a few short years ago these streets carried two-way traffic. (Three-way if you counted the parked vehicles!)
I spent many a restful hour in Bali Qui (spelling?) restaurant as the traffic resembled a car park.
To see two huge tourist coaches attempting to pass in Jl Padma without colliding with parked vehicles was a sight to behold!!
