Vida Cafe in Canggu, Bali

If you go to Canggu for a short visit, make sure you're staying somewhere near Batu Balong for the first few days.

It's where a lot of the main stuff is, and if you're too scared to ride a motorcycle (I finally got the guts to rent one today...if you don't hear from me again it's because I'm a bad driver haha) you can walk to a lot of places.

I love to just hop from place to place, and order a drink in one and food in another. That way I get to experience more places in less time.

One of the places I aimlessly stumbled upon while walking down the road was Vida Cafe. It's a great place to eat an hang out, but maybe don't plan on working there because it's usually packed and would be super distracting (plus it may not be so nice to take a table for 4 hours when so many people are trying to eat there).

I ordered the healthy food bowl, and all I have to say is...it was so freaking exciting to eat because the colors kept blending together like you blend paint on a paint palette.

I felt like I was experiencing the true meaning of food art just by eating it.

See how the orange from the pumpkin blends in with the magenta from the jackfruit and makes some kind of beautiful orange-magenta mix that looks like a sunset? Isn't it soo cool? Maybe I'm just way too easily amused. 😆

I gave you the ugliest picture first so that you set low expectations for the rest of this post haha.

Why do adults tell kids they shouldn't play with their food? I definitely think you SHOULD. It's way more fun that way.

Here's what my food looked like before I devoured it like a ravenous hobo who hadn't eaten for days:

While I was eating, a flower fell into my bowl! It felt like a gift from heaven. Like, yay! God got me a flower! Do you see the flower in there?

There was this cool skull made out of seashells. I'm gonna have to google what that's all about...I thought skulls were just a Mexican/Guatemalan Day of the Dead thing.

Not only is the food beautiful, but the cafe/ restaurant is beautiful, too.

Definitely come here if you have a chance! If you have any food allergies, they'll let you swap out anything you want for no extra charge! I took out 3 items out of the bowl that I was allergic to and added 3 other items at no added cost.

I guess they don't mind high maintenance here! I hate being one of "those" people because I'm typically the most low maintenance person ever.
