位于巴厘岛乌布附近的Begawan Biji餐厅将农业生产、自然保护与餐饮体验融为一体。[1]这家餐厅由退休侨民夫妇Bradley和Debora Gardner创办，隶属Begawan基金会，该基金会成立至今已有25年历史。[1]餐厅采用农场到餐桌的经营模式，使用有机食材烹饪，同时为基金会的保护工作提供资金支持。[1]
基金会自1999年起开展巴厘岛椋鸟保护与繁殖项目，迄今已繁殖并释放超过135只鸟类到野生环境中。[1]这一工作至关重要，因为岛上仅剩约600只巴厘岛椋鸟，而全球圈养繁殖项目中存活1000至2000只。[1]餐厅于两年前开业，由建筑师Conchita Blanco设计，其灵感源自传统巴厘岛万塔兰亭的建筑风格。[1]农场到餐桌的三道菜套餐含饮料定价约为每人60美元。[1]
Begawan Biji, a farm-to-table restaurant located near Ubud in Bali, combines sustainable cuisine with endangered species conservation.[1] The establishment, which opened two years ago, was designed by architect Conchita Blanco of Blancostudio, drawing inspiration from traditional Balinese wantilan pavilions.[1] The venue serves a three-course farm-to-table menu with beverages for approximately 60 US dollars per person.[1]
The restaurant operates under the Begawan Foundation, established 25 years ago by retired expats Bradley and Debora Gardner.[1] The foundation has been running a breeding and release program for the critically endangered Bali starling since 1999, successfully breeding and releasing over 135 birds into the wild.[1] Today, approximately 600 Bali starlings remain in the wild, while 1,000 to 2,000 survive in global captive breeding programs.[1] The farm-to-table restaurant serves as a funding mechanism for the foundation's conservation efforts while demonstrating sustainable agricultural practices through organic farming on its grounds.[1]
