Bali Cooking Experience — The Complete Balinese Cooking Class Day

Your Bali cooking experience starts with hotel pickup from the Ubud area. You will be taken to the local morning market, where a guide explains the ingredients and shows you how locals shop. Then you walk through the green rice paddies to our village kitchen. Once there, you wash your hands, make a Balinese flower offering, and get started cooking.

Over roughly four hours you will grind the spice paste, prepare 10+ dishes, and sit down to eat everything you made. The experience ends with a recipe booklet, a certificate of completion, and photos to take home.

Many cooking classes in Bali are held in commercial kitchens and focus only on cooking. Our experience includes every element of a Balinese food culture: the market, the rice fields, the offering, the cooking, and the shared meal. It is designed to feel like a day in the life of a Balinese family, not a tourist activity.

We also keep group sizes small — a maximum of eight guests — so everyone gets hands-on attention from the chef.

Everyone. Whether you are a complete beginner, a foodie with years of experience, a couple on honeymoon, a family with kids, or a solo traveller — our cooking experience welcomes all. Vegetarian and vegan menus are available on request.
