Traditional Balinese Meal in a Multi-Generational Family Compound

Putu was amazing!! Her brother picked us up (we were an hour away). She was so fun to cook with I definitely recommend this experience. Her and her husband even too us to do a zip line before her brother brought us back! She also send us the recipes after.

My mom visited from the U.S. and requested a cooking class. I did a bunch of research and found the best one… and so have you. From confirming the reservation to dropping us off, Putu and Pasta created a lifetime experience. We started by learning about Balinese culture and agriculture on the drive, arrived at the traditional Balinese compound and met the two dogs before getting a tour of the garden and temples - my mom and her friend loved that. We then cooked five meals together - laughing and having a great time while making a great meal. The drive home included more questions and learning about ceremonies, traditions, and linguistics. Stop looking and start booking. Five stars - wonderful people and incredible experience.

Putu, the chef, and her husband were excellent hosts. They were both gracious, polite and informative. The meal was excellent - Putu even offered us leftovers to take back to our hotel. Pasta was friendly and picked us up right on time. He drove us to his family's ancestral home where we met Putu. She showed us around the home and introduced us to other members of the family. There was a wide variety of dishes to choose from and the buffet was plentiful. We lucked out as we were the only guests for the night of our dinner. Putu also shared her recipes with us. Highly recommend this tour. You won't be disappointed.
