Run Forrest Run

Bubba Gump Shrimp's Word of The Day

everyone who watched Tom Hanks' most famous movie "Forrest Gump" knows indeed what those
with my friend, Vincent
words refer to. in the movie, Benjamin Buford "Bubba" Blue and Forrest Gump had an idea to manage a company, named "Bubba Gump Shrimp Co" after the end of their service in the Army, but Bubba died in the line of duty in Vietnam, which left Forrest Gump to be the only member of the company. this Forrest Gump movie inspired Viacom Consumer Products on 1996 to initiate what happened on the movie. and after almost 20 years in business, Bubba Gump are all over the world. one of them is opened in Bali, Indonesia, and becoming the most visited restaurant in Bali. 

SeaFood Plater & Juice

Bubba Gump offers large choices of seafood, prawns, king prawns, shrimps, squids, fishes and other combinations which make you surely want to have all those things. the prawn is so juicy, the cocktail tastes great, what else though? 





the restaurant entrance was very animated with lots off funny signs & license plates like "Stop Forrest
the lucky birthday girl
Stop!", "Shop Forrest Shop!" and some cool stuffs they put on the window. a very clever idea to drag everybody in. with their camp environment, 1950's classic style and "Forrest Gump" movie quotes, you will surely feel, this place has no matches.







cheers in the place
the staffs were often yell happily to cheer & greet you. they will often force you to be in a fun game with the other visitors. when I came in, there was a lucky visitor who had a birthday, with no hesitate, the staffs danced and sang the Birthday song, sung by the whole people in the restaurants (what a birthday??!)
there's some quite unique rule in this place to order your meal. if you want to order and ask the staffs, you have to say it loud "Stop Forrest Stop" or you turn the sign on your table to "Stop Forrest Stop". and if you have done with your meal, you have to say it loud "Run Forrest Run". if you don't do it, they drag you into their games, and all people in this place will surely stare your red crabby face. :D
easy to find

this Bubba Gump is so easy to spot, it's just beside the Waterbom Bali or across Centro (you won't surely miss this place), if you can't find it, so.. Run Forrest Run!!!
