Review of Dewa’s private Balinese cooking class near Ubud, with village walks, garden ingredients, family recipes, transfers, and lunch.

“Our morning spent with Dewa at his home was by far the highlight of our trip. We had a wonderful time learning to make a whole bunch of delicious traditional Balinese dishes, Dewa was an excellent teacher! He provided us with a notebook so that I could write down the recipes and repeat them at home. We also learnt so much about Balinese culture and Dewa and his family's way of living, with a tour of the local area and gardens where they grow so many of their ingredients. Even my husband, who generally doesn't enjoy cooking agreed it was the best thing we did!”

My husband is allergic to chicken, but they made sure he was able to cook and eat with no problem. Everything tasted delicious! We'll definitely come back and take another class in the future.”
