I know we all get a bit stingy at times and complain of being ripped off but I must comment on our last visit to Jimbaran.
We selected a large fish to be grilled and watched the man put it on the scales. It seemed to weigh a lot (2 kilos). We had a litre water bottle with us which weighs 1 kilo plus a bit for the bottle. When I weighed the water bottle the scales said 2 kilos (approx). This happened several times and become quite amusing with many laughs from the sellers.
Eventually one seller said "sorry but scale must be broken, will charge you half price". More laughter but meal agreed on, which also included 8 large prawns. After a few beers on the beach the meal was served. The fish was cooked to perfection, the potatos and salad was excellent as were the 6 not 8 prawns. More laughter. As they or we say 'only in Bali'. Enjoy Jimbaran and its sea food and sunsets and smile at the small indiscresions.
