Editor's note: The recipe below is part of a healthy and delicious spa menu developed exclusively for Epicurious by Chris Miller, executive chef at Como Shambhala Estate at Begawan Giri in Bali.

In this streamlined dessert, summer berries are served atop grilled polenta with a simple garnish of strained yogurt and pistachios. The key to success here is using high-quality ingredients: ripe fruit at its seasonal peak, a full-flavored honey (Chef Miller prefers rambutan, a Javanese variety with a fruity, citrusy flavor and amber color), and delicate orange blossom water. If you'd like, try garnishing the dessert with a chiffonade of fresh basil or mint.
