About this tour
Learn to cook authentic Balinese dishes in a four-hour class that begins at a local market in Kuta. You'll select fresh ingredients alongside your instructor, then prepare classics like satay, lawar, pepes ikan, and fried rice from scratch. After cooking, sit down to eat what you've made, and leave with printed recipes to recreate these dishes at home. Complimentary pickup covers central Kuta, Legian, Seminyak, and Jimbaran.

What to expect
Your instructor collects you from your accommodation and drives to a local market where you'll browse stalls, learn to identify quality ingredients, and chat with vendors. Back at the cooking space, you'll prep and cook four signature recipes whilst learning why certain flavour combinations matter in Balinese cooking. The class moves at a relaxed pace—this isn't about speed, but understanding technique. Once everything's ready, you'll gather to eat together, sharing stories with other participants. Expect to be on your feet for most of the morning; the kitchen is casual and social rather than formal.
Good to know
Pickup is included within central Kuta, Legian, Seminyak, and Jimbaran only; return transport is your responsibility. Not suitable for those with spinal issues, pregnancy, or serious cardiovascular conditions. Wear comfortable clothing and closed-toe shoes for the market and kitchen.
