Fabulous experience - This was a wonderful experience from start to finish. I was the only booking on the morning I chose, so I had a private tour and class. It was fabulous - toured a morning food market and tasted different fruits, drove through some beautiful countryside to the cooking school, had coffee and sweets in a local family home before the cookingin a beautfiul setting. Ron (the chef) gave great insight to Balinese culture and traditions (and he has a wicked sense of humor). The class itself was hands on and the food was delicious. I would return here without hesitation when I come back to Bali. Thank you Ron, Aldo and Ketut- you were wonderful!!

Authentic Balinese Experience - Brilliant day with Ron and his colleagues. Food preparation and cooking was enjoyed by all the family. Great also supporting a local operator who was passionate about his business and sharing the local culture. This was an authentic experience.

Great cooking class with amazing balinese host. - Booked cooking class for a family with 3 teenage children. Started the day with a visit to the local market which was really interesting to see where the locals shop. Had a short drive to the purpose built kitchen. Started with a very special visit to a local Balinese home which amazing. We felt very privileged to be welcomed in and see how locals live and learn about their customs and beliefs. This was a highlight of our time in Bali. We then learnt to cook six delicious dishes and finished getting to eat what we had a cooked which was delicious. A great morning out. Our hosts were excellent, a really enjoyable morning that I would highly recommend.

Amazing and authentic experience! - The experience we had was invaluable…the day began with a trip to the authentic Balinese farmer’s market where we tried various island fruits. We walked around the market and learned about how the small marketplace works—a great glimpse into the daily life of a Balinese person. We then went to a traditional family compound with a family temple and enjoyed tea and Balinese cake. We learned about the family life, traditions and ceremonies, the family temple and daily offerings, and we were able to ask questions and take pictures. The adventure then continued to the outdoor kitchen where we cooked 6 different Balinese dishes and sat down to enjoy our meal together. Our college age daughters thoroughly enjoyed the day. We enjoyed every minute of the experience and the people involved!

Great experience - This was so much fun! We loved being able to go to the market and see all the different things there. We were able to try fresh fruit that we can't get in the U.S. and the guide explained a lot about the local traditions. Once we got back to where we would be cooking, we were shown a family compound and were informed about how the family compounds work. We were able to cook all the dishes fairly easily and everything was delicious. We were so full that we couldn't finish it all! Great job to everyone that participated in this experience for us!!

Great experience! - Amazing experience which included a market tour and cultural tour. Our teacher/guide Visnu was knowledgeable, patient and a joy to be with. He and his partner Ketut were great! We cooked 6 delicious meals that we will cook again when we get home!

Cooking in ubud - Really enjoyed the experience-learned a lot about Balinese culture and history. The cooking was full on but our efforts were rewarded by a lovely lunch (come hungry as we couldn’t finish it)
