roughly how much $$$ i need to budget for a decent dinner for 2 person?
*
their crispy duck is the 2nd speciality, their main speciality is smoked duck. it usually comes in a set with vege. the set will cost u 175k + 5%(service) + 10%(tax). The portion is enough for 3 pax even is stated for 2 pax. If u stay in agung raka, you are entitled a 10% discount for the dinner and they can drive u to bebek bengil. The smoked duck need to order one day ealier, while the crispy duck no need.

here is the menu

anyhow...avoid VERONA SPA in ubud at all cost. Its dirty and their service is bad and massaging is not good at all. Go look for Sang Spa, its far way better.

Up to now, i have been to 3 spa's. Sang Spa, Murano in Legian, Verona...Verona is the worst among all mad.gif

I called verona for pickup, and they say ok. so they pick me up. after the spa and collect the $$, they say.."oh, we only provide 1 way transfer from hotel in ubud"..WTF doh.gif , i have to walk 2km under the 12noon sun yawn.gif . The masage eveything suppose to last for 2 hours base on the menu, but the whole process was just 1 hour and 20 minutes. To room is dirty and old, especially the shower area. the massage miss alot of area of your body, same goes with the scrub and mask. The towel that you use to wipe ur body after shower is old as well. I am not sure how on earth that some of you guys recommended this place. First time experience you may find this place value for $$ spa, but once u go survey more places. You will know that this is just another overrated spa with lousy service, stingy in mask and scrub, dirty shower area and lousy masseuse

It was way much different from Sang Spa. They pick me up, after spa send me back. the massage was full body(except u know where brows.gif ). The scrub and mask they use was way more then Verona. Even when u go shower to wash off the mask, the masseuse will wash for u. thumbup.gif

will update the pictures later.
