A word from
Gaetan Biesuz
"Every day should be a celebration, a chance to toast with a glass of this bold, radiant champagne and be thankful for life."
Gaetan Biesuz - Executive Chef
About the Ambassade
Rumari is set between sun and sea at the highest point of Raffles Bali Resort. Here, at the first Krug Ambassade in Indonesia, Chef Gaetan Biesuz creates authentic, bold flavours, presenting Southeast Asian cuisine in an organic, contemporary way. The name Rumari means "the house of the sun and the full moon," a place of true celestial beauty right on the cusp of Jimbaran Bay on the island of Bali.
About the Krug Lover
Executive Chef Gaetan Biesuz joined the culinary team of the Accor luxury hotel group and discovered the world while working at restaurants in the United States, Dubai, Thailand, Malaysia, and finally, Indonesia.
How would you describe your culinary philosophy?
My philosophy is to never compromise on flavour and the freshness of ingredients for the appearance of the dish. At Rumari, 80% of our produce is sourced from the archipelago.
How would you define your cooking style?
My style is a classic technique whereby I match unique ingredients to delight the palates of my guests.
How does the location of your restaurant inspire your cooking?
Our restaurant seating is mesmerising with surrounding vegetation and an unmatched view of the ocean, which helps connect all the senses evoked by the menu we are creating. Bali and Indonesia are our main sources of ingredients, allowing us to be as responsible and sustainable as possible.
What is your ultimate dream meal?
Very difficult, there are so many to choose from. Maybe to have eaten at El Bulli, as I have never been able to try it.
Where are you when you feel the happiest?
In between the kitchen and the restaurant, the balance between my culinary team and joyful guests is my happiness.
What makes you a Krug Lover?
Krug is an inspiration. I look to the Maison with admiration and honour Joseph Krug’s vision of uncompromising quality.
What is your favourite Krug food pairing?
One of my favourite Krug pairings at the moment is Krug Rosé 24ème Édition with braised short ribs, sous vide with rendang spice. The fat and spiced balance of the beef wonderfully complements the champagne.
