We walked up on this small coffee shop and bakery looking for a Latte Machiatto early on a cold…read moreSunday Morning. Not much is open in Arbon at that time. We were pleasantly surprised by the delicious coffee and array of baked goods we had never seen before. By this time in our trip, we were accustomed to the highly developed baking game in this area of Europe. We tried a couple of items and found them characteristically sweet an refined. New to us was the table reservation in a coffee shop. In the US tables are always first-come-first-served in a small cafe like this. Several tables were unoccupied, but had "reserved" signs on them. We asked and all had been reserved somehow. We chose to sit outside on seats that had furry pads on them, which were amazingly warming. We were quite comfortable, enjoying the warming effect of the drinks and the chairs in the chilly lake air. This place seemed like a chain, but I'm not certain. Would definitely recommend and repeat if we are in Arbon again!

We arrived in Arbon for a one night stay while on a bike ride around Lake Constance. Hungry and…read moretired.. We found it to be slim pickings for restaurants around our hotel. Yelpers didn't have a lot to say about the local fare, but we did find this place here. It's good that we were able to read some reviews because we had to pass many places to get here. Glad we made it. We sat in the sunroom (glass enclosed) and were relieved by the air conditioned comfort.. It had been a long, hot day. We started with an order of bruschetta. This was done in a different manner than we are used to. Thin crusty breads topped with ripe sliced/seeded tomatoes, oil and fresh herbs.. Simple and delicious.. Balsamic on the table. My wife ordered a spinach/ricotta ravioli with a meat and mushroom sauce that she really enjoyed. I had Penne pasta with bolognese sauce and got a healthy sized portion.. Pasta was perfect.. Cooked al dente and the sauce was delicious. We were too full for dessert, but noticed on the way out that they looked pretty delcious. The restaurant was a nice walk (about a mile from our hotel) and they offer a parking lot for those that are driving. Indoor and outdoor seating and very friendly service.

From the owner: Rita und Fransiscus Laksdi haben sich vor 30 Jahren am Arbeitsplatz in der Schweiz kennengelernt…read more Rita ist kaufmännisch ausgebildet, arbeitete viele Jahre auf Schweizer Banken und in der Privatindustrie. Fransiscus hat die Hotelfachschule in Bandung, Java (damals unter Schweizer Leitung) absolviert. Er hat internationale Erfahrung (Indonesien, Königreich Emirates, Amerika, Schweden, Schweiz). Es war immer der grosse Wunsch von Fransiscus, ein eigenes Restaurant zu haben. Nach langer Suche haben wir in Frasnacht unseren Platz gefunden. Das Restaurant war erst 1.5 Jahre vor uns in Betrieb genommen worden. Hier haben wir gesehen, was man daraus machen kann und haben unsere Ideen umgesetzt. So entstand nach kurzer Zeit das Bali Restaurant. Ein Traum wurde wahr.
