A Slow Sunday, the Italian Way at W Bali – Seminyak
Sunday brunch at W Bali – Seminyak has always been a scene – unhurried, social, and unmistakably indulgent. On Sunday, 22 February 2026, the island icon adds a distinctly Italian accent to its daytime ritual as Starfish Bloo hosts a limited-edition brunch collaboration with Amici, unfolding from 12 PM to 3.30 PM. Set against the resort’s breezy oceanfront, the experience invites guests to settle in, slow down, and let the afternoon stretch naturally.
Designed exclusively for this one-day takeover, the collaboration reimagines Italian comfort food through a contemporary brunch lens. Amici’s culinary philosophy – guided by the vision of Enrico Bartolini, whose restaurants collectively hold 14 Michelin stars – leans into balance and precision rather than excess. The menu feels thoughtful and familiar, translating classic Italian preparations into dishes suited for relaxed midday dining by the sea.
The brunch journey begins with savory plates that are generous yet composed. A focaccina al tonno arrives layered with silky tuna tartare, lime zest, and stracciatella, finished with the subtle crunch of gomasio. House-made spaghetti alla vaccinara follows, rich and comforting, featuring wagyu tokusen oxtail ragout coated in pecorino romano DOP cheese sauce. Parmigiana di melanzane rounds out the savory selection, pairing baked eggplant with Grana Padano cheese sauce and basil cream – nostalgic flavors presented with modern restraint.
As the afternoon unfolds at Starfish Bloo, the experience closes on a sweet and familiar note. Amici’s tiramisu, crafted from house-made ladyfingers, mascarpone cream, and espresso coffee, is light yet indulgent, offering a composed finish that suits the laid-back rhythm of a Sunday in Seminyak.
More than a brunch, this limited-edition collaboration is an invitation to linger – where refined Italian flavors meet W Bali – Seminyak’s signature energy, all within the golden hours of a coastal afternoon.
