Our Balinese chefs arrive at your villa with the ingredients, the equipment and the recipes. Two hours later you’re sitting down to six dishes you cooked yourself.
Our local chefs bring an authentic, hands-on cooking experience directly to you, sharing the flavours, ingredients and stories behind Bali and Indonesia’s favourite dishes.
It’s more than following recipes. It’s about cooking together, having fun, learning something new and enjoying a meal you’ve created yourselves.
Whether you’re with family, friends or your partner, we want your experience to become a special memory from your Bali holiday.
Take home your recipe book and recreate a taste of Bali wherever you are.
Send an enquiry with your date, villa area and how many of you there are. We confirm on WhatsApp — usually within a few hours, and nothing to pay to hold it.

Our chefs are Balinese and Indonesian
cooks who grew up with these dishes, and
they teach them the way they were taught
— by putting a knife in your hand. Circlecropped portraits, first names only,
one sentence each. Never a corporate
team grid.

Absolutely! Children are welcome to join the experience and get involved in preparing the dishes. We can make the experience fun and suitable for the whole family. Their safety is our priority.
