The Class
This is the authentic Balinese cooking class in the most spectacular view. You cook five dishes from scratch with a friendly, patient expert cooking teacher — grinding the spice paste, wrapping the satay, learning why every dish starts with the same base gede — while the sun drops behind the mountains in front of you.
We offer a variety of cooking class options to enhance your satisfaction, so you can explore the pleasure of cooking with our wide range of classes. Three hours in the kitchen, then one hour of dinner: everything you made, eaten in a romantic and peaceful evening mountainous view. We pick you up from your hotel and drop you back after.
Pick five from soup, grilled, steamed, deep fried and dessert — vegetarian works too.
The kitchen faces west over the valley. Class starts 05.30pm so you cook through golden hour.
A friendly Balinese cook who explains every step in English and never rushes you.

Balinese Menu
Everything below is on the table. Pick five dishes across the groups — most guests take one soup, one grilled, one steamed, one fried and a dessert.
Soup
Where every class starts. You build the base gede — the spice paste behind almost everything Balinese — then turn it into soup.
Charcoal work. You mould satay onto lemongrass sticks by hand and wrap fish or chicken in banana leaf before it hits the grill.
Steamed
The vegetable side of a Balinese table — grated coconut, long beans, and a peanut sauce you grind yourself. All three work as vegetarian.
Deep Fried
The easy crowd pleasers, and the ones children in the group always want to make. Crisp outside, soft in the middle.
Welcome drinks are poured the moment you arrive. Finish the class with something sweet.
Banana in a light batter, fried crisp and eaten hot. The classic Balinese dessert.
Green pandan crêpe rolled around coconut and palm sugar. Made by hand, one at a time.
Bali coffee, Bali tea, or spice tea — included, and poured before the knives come out.
Optional arak or local beer with dinner. Just say the word when you book.
How Long It Takes
Starting 05.30pm, so you are grinding spices as the sun sets in front of you. Five dishes, hands on from the first cut to the last plate.
Then you sit down and eat everything you made, in a romantic and peaceful evening mountainous view. No rush, no next seating waiting for the table.
Approximate times — the pace follows you, not the clock.
Collected from your hotel, then Bali coffee, Bali tea or spice tea as you arrive.
Meet your teacher, walk the ingredients, and grind the base gede as the sun drops.
Soup, grilled, steamed, fried and dessert — every step hands on, at your own pace.
Eat what you made under the mountains, then we drive you home.
