Ubud Aulas de culinária

It was quite a drive to get there, but it was a pleasant one. We had a fun and informative experience making traditional Balinese food, accompanied by friendly small talk in a welcoming atmosphere. We went to the market, where we learned a lot about unfamiliar fruits we'd never seen before. It was especially interesting to taste snake fruit, which has different flavors depending on its size. We had to prepare nine dishes, so there was quite a lot to do. It was enjoyable to chop, stir-fry, and handle the ingredients while listening to explanations, making the whole process far from boring. Highly recommended!

We booked the 8:00 AM morning session, and a driver picked us up from the hotel. In the morning, we walked through a local market, which was a wonderful experience. Upon arriving at the kitchen, we were welcomed with a welcome drink, and then we started the cooking class. The cooking class was a lot of fun, filled with happiness and laughter. We got to eat the food we cooked ourselves, and it was delicious. All the staff had a great sense of humor and had fun along with us.

We joined the market visit at 8am, interesting to see themlocal traditional markets and some of their ingredients. Back at the hotel, our cooking class was held in a sheltered place, but with padi field all around and good breeze. Chef Budi and assistant Monika took good care of us. We cooked a Balinese sauce/seasoning to stir fry some minced chicken to make a salad. The same sauce was used to season fish for steaming, wrapped in banana leaves. It was grilled to give extra flavour. Rest of the minced chicken was seasoned before putting them on sticks to grill over coconut shell charcoal. For dessert we made oandan thin pancakes with gula melaka/coconut as fillings. Overall excellent experience and enjoyed the cooking class and dining what we prepared. Strongly recommend.

Experience: Overall, extremely satisfied and highly recommended! Service: The chef provided excellent guidance on Balinese snacks, demonstrating both professionalism and a willingness to share. The manager was very conversational and humorous, and the ladies providing service were friendly and professional 🥰 The delicious and beautifully presented food portions were generous, and we were able to take leftovers home! Location: Under the eaves next to the infinity pool, the comfort level was excellent. We also enjoyed a beautiful distant view of the natural landscape.
