Crunch. Colour. Character. Each mouthful of the Alchemy raw salad was a revelation. It was like tasting and swallowing morsels of Ubud’s verdant vistas. Vegetables in various hues and textures tossed in a sparkling dressing.

I could not stop eating. A hazard, surely, at the Ubud Food Festival which took place over three days at the tail end of May.
