Great cooking class - learned loads! - A really well organised class. Informal, friendly, lots of participation, and led by a chef who was clearly an expert. Thank you Made. We cooked 9 dishes, which later became lunch. The group was broken into three tables of four and each group cooked the same dish. Had a couple of beers as we cooked, warm and comfortable (lots of fans). Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic Morning! - This experience was great value for money. We had a lovely time learning about the types of food used, the Balinese culture and how to make 9 different dishes. Our instructor Made was a surely knowledgeable and interesting and all the staff here made us feel welcome - they ever brought out a cake and music to celebrate my birthday that day! The class was only 10 people and everyone had a turn at the different stages of food making. We got to try samples along the way before sitting down to a gigantic lunch of all the dishes we made. We were given a recipie book to take home as well as great memories and photos!

Fantastic Workshop - The Best Balinese Cooking Class. This was an amazing workshop class accompanied by Jimmy, balanese chef. We started at 8 am visting the local market, where we learned about indonisean fruit, veggies and spices used for cook. Then we got back to the restaurant named ChefWarung Nia to start our learning. In total we learnt to prepare 8 dishes including different Spice Paste for chicken, seafood and pork. Also incredibles and tasty salads also. Dishes were Ayam Betutu-Bali, Be Celeng Base Manis, Sate Ayam, Tum Ayam, Lawar, Pesan Be Pasih, Pecelan, Mie Goreng, Nasi Goreng Ayam & Urab jagung. Now excited to get back home to put in pratice all these recipes. In fact now, I obtained new knowledges how to obtain new flavours and tasty food with the combination of garlic, echalot, different types of gingers, tumeric, limo, lemon grass, peanuts, wallnuts and red hot chillies. Fantastic !

Fun and informative - The class was fun and informative! We enjoyed touring the food market and learning about local ingredients. We cooked many Balinese dishes and they turned out delicious! Our class guide did a great job explaining things and showing us how to cook the food. We would highly recommend!

From Market to Table: A Delicious Balinese Experience - Loved this cooking class! As a solo traveller I felt completely included—the chef was fun, welcoming, and created a great atmosphere. Well-organised, spotless kitchen, and so much laughter while learning. A real highlight of my trip!

Don’t waste your money or your time - Very rushed and they wanted to do all the work for you rather than showing and letting you have a go. All ingredients were pre prepared. Not even sure if the meal was the ones we made at the end. Charged surcharge on the drinks as well as another way to get yr money. Be careful. Definitely not worth doing. If your motel offers it do it there. And the market tour was woeful
