Gourmet restaurants in Asia

  1. A

    Kokomo

    Unquestionably top dog on the Gilis, Kokomo has really raised the bar in the culinary stakes and is the only genuine fine-dining restaurant in town. Standards are very high indeed, using hyper-fresh local seafood and select imported meats. Lots of fresh salads, wonderful steaks and pasta, but for the ultimate treat opt for a seafood or sashimi (with Atlantic salmon and yellowfin tuna) platter. Eat on the beachside terrace or in the air-conditioned dining room.

  2. Boso

    Gastronomic adventurer? Come to Boso for a more-than-you-can-eat banquet. Tourists don’t frequent the place, and the food is uncompromisingly Korean, including raw fish, raw prawns, eel and ray. There’s also galbi, a whole pumpkin cooked with sticky rice, nuts and a sweet sauce inside, japchae, soup, porridge, salad, vegetables, stuffed peppers, octopus, fruit, tea… Oh yes and steamed egg, dubu jjigae, mini- pajeon, mul kimchi… The helpful owner speaks English.
