1. Cooking Class Basics: This is a good opportunity for beginners in Indonesian cuisine. And for experienced cooks as well, because in every region in Bali the recipes are different – so try ours! You will learn about the Balinese way of cooking, in a basic kitchen.
2. Advanced Cooking Class: This class shows you more secrets of Balinese Cooking, but it is not more difficult than other courses and suitable for beginners, too. We offer this special class, because we think the Balinese kitchen is so rich in interesting dishes, that one day is just not enough ...
