Bali Cooking Class with Culture Experience

We had the most fabulous morning / afternoon spent at the Lobong Culinary Experience with Made and his family. Everyone absolutely loved it and the food was simply divine. Made picked us up from our accommodation in Ubud and drove us first to Sayan market where we learnt a little about the local delicacies and treats, sampled some fruit and took in all the sights, sounds and smells! We then headed to Made's family compound where we enjoyed Bali coffee (or tea) and banana fritters which were a sample of the beautiful food to come. The cooking class is VERY hands on and we made a whole menu from scratch. No pastes or bought in mixes. It is authentic, delicious and a lot of fun. Highly recommend you do this when in Ubud!

My partner and I really enjoyed the cooking class, the trip to the market was wonderful. We have done cooking classes in a few countries and this was by far the best. We learned a lot about Bali and the culture from Sunday, your welcoming host. He speaks perfect English and is able to describe lots about food and Bali, always checking if you have any questions. The food was wonderful and everything was very well organised, I would highly recommend this class.

Still wondering if you should do a cooking class while in Ubud? Just do this one. You will not regret the decision. Yes the cooking is the main star, but the time spent with Sang Made travelling to the market and then to his house, is a activity by itself. He shares lots of information and answers questions you may have. The house compound is an oasis with beautiful gardens and a wonderful setting for the cooking class. Now to the cooking class - very easy to follow and replicate and the meal at the end is wonderfully presented and of course super delicious. Hospitality at its best!
