MEXX The Cooking School

100% amazing day, exceeded all expectations. Venue was mind blowing host was sensational IF YOU CAN YOU MUST

Erlinda was amazing from the start with an interesting market tour. Then onto her house/cooking school which was such a fun day with her ladies helping us all the way. We learnt so much about Indonesian cooking, made some wonderful meals, and got to eat them.. I would highly recommend this day to anyone, any age.

Local morning market visit was very informative and the hands on experience with fun staff make this a great experience away from the hustle & bustle.

Es war einfach fantastisch! Die Damen haben mir so viel beigebracht, und ich freue mich schon sehr darauf, zu Hause zu kochen. Ich kann diesen Kurs nur empfehlen und sende allen Teilnehmerinnen ganz liebe Grüße und ein großes Dankeschön! 😘

Die Organisatoren waren fantastisch, sie haben sich wirklich alle Mühe gegeben, die gleichen Gerichte wie alle anderen zuzubereiten, nur eben vegan. Die Damen, die geholfen haben, waren so lieb und nett, absolut empfehlenswert.

Wunderbare Menschen. Ein toller Tag. Gerne wieder.

Drei Worte beschreiben diesen Kochkurs: UNGLAUBLICH, UNGLAUBLICH UND UNGLAUBLICH! Im Preis inbegriffen waren Abholung und Lieferung zu unserem Hotel, die pünktlich erfolgten. Bringen Sie Appetit mit und haben Sie Spaß beim Zubereiten köstlicher Speisen.

Vom Marktbesuch über das Frühstück und die Vorstellung der Zutaten bis hin zum Kurs selbst – wir hatten einen fantastischen Tag. Super Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis und tolles Personal.

Ein toller Tag, nicht zu lang, eine großartige Gegend für einen Kurs – ihr werdet nicht enttäuscht sein.

Der Kochkurs war fantastisch! Die Kursleiterin ist sehr kompetent und man lernt unheimlich viel, nicht nur übers Kochen, sondern auch über die Kultur und die Menschen Balis! Schon beim Marktbesuch und der Fahrt zum Kurs hat uns Erlinda viel Neues über Bali erzählt. Das Frühstück im Grünen vor dem Kurs war auch super. Der Kurs war professionell organisiert, mit überaus netten Helfern, und man kocht so viel, dass man es mittags danach gar nicht mehr aufessen kann. Ich kann Erlinda und ihre Kochschule wärmstens empfehlen!

Wunderbare Zeit! Informativ, fantastische Gastgeber, großartiges Essen. Absolut nichts auszusetzen. Würde ich bei meinem nächsten Bali-Besuch jederzeit wiederholen.

Ich habe diesen Kurs mit meinem Mann und meinen beiden Teenagerkindern besucht, die (im Gegensatz zu ihren Eltern) nicht so gerne kochen. Zu meiner Freude hat es uns allen vieren aber sehr gut gefallen. Erlanda und ihr Team aus lokalen Assistenten sind äußerst professionell und hatten an jedes noch so kleine Detail des Kurses gedacht. Ich bin zwar manchmal etwas perfektionistisch, aber in diesem Fall fällt mir ehrlich gesagt nichts ein, was ich an der Organisation und Durchführung des Kurses ändern würde. Der Marktbesuch war ein tolles Extra und bot uns Einblicke in die balinesische Kultur und Traditionen. Der Kurs selbst fühlte sich an wie Kochen mit Freunden und hat nicht nur viel Spaß gemacht, sondern war auch sehr informativ und lehrreich. Außerdem war das Essen, das wir im Kurs zubereitet haben, das leckerste, das ich während unseres zweiwöchigen Urlaubs gegessen habe. Da wir in einer Villa wohnten, haben wir außerdem genug Essen mit nach Hause genommen, um uns für die nächsten Tage zu versorgen. Ich kann diesen Kochkurs wärmstens empfehlen.

Wir haben in der Zeit mit Erlinda und ihrem Team so viel gelernt. Es war sehr persönlich, sehr lehrreich und das Essen war das beste, das wir bisher auf Bali hatten.

Eine tolle Erfahrung mit sehr netten Gastgebern. Das gemeinsame Kochen von zwölf Gerichten bot uns einen großartigen Einblick in die Vielfalt der balinesischen und indonesischen Küche, ebenso wie der morgendliche Marktbesuch. Die Gerichte waren köstlich, und ich kann diese Aktivität jedem empfehlen, der sich für Kochen und die balinesische Kultur und Traditionen im Allgemeinen interessiert.

Ich war total begeistert vom Kochkurs mit Erlinda. Von der Abholung vom Hotel bis zum Besuch des traditionellen Marktes war es ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. Erlinda hat uns ein einzigartiges, praktisches Erlebnis ermöglicht. Wir haben ganz einfach verschiedene Gerichte gelernt. Erlinda hatte jeweils zwei Teilnehmer pro Kochstation und einen Helfer. Auch mein Mann Vivek hat den Kurs sehr genossen und fleißig mitgemacht. Alle Vorbereitungen waren im Voraus getroffen. Vor dem Kurs gab es ein balinesisches Frühstück. Nach dem Kochen haben wir zusammen mit den anderen Teilnehmern ein köstliches Mittagessen genossen. Wir bekamen auch ein Rezeptbuch, sodass wir das Erlebnis ganz ohne Notizen genießen konnten. Ich kann diesen Kurs absolut empfehlen. Erlindas Zuhause war wunderschön, mit Blick ins Grüne. Ein wundervolles Erlebnis! 😀 Sarita Mathur

Das gesamte Erlebnis, von der Abholung an, war einfach fantastisch. Wir hatten quasi ein individuelles Kocherlebnis. Alle unsere Lieblingsgerichte wurden zubereitet, und wir haben unser Mittagessen selbst gekocht. Sauberkeit und Liebe zum Detail waren top, ebenso wie das Personal. Es wurde stets ausreichend kaltes Wasser bereitgestellt und Ventilatoren sowie die Klimaanlage sorgten für angenehme Kühle. Ich würde nichts daran ändern wollen. Es war ein fantastischer Tag und jeden Cent wert.

Das Personal war überaus aufmerksam. Die freundliche Atmosphäre der Gruppe sorgte für ausgelassene Stimmung und viel Gelächter. Die Liebe zum Detail wurde von allen sehr geschätzt. Die anderen aus meiner Gruppe, die nicht teilnehmen wollten, bereuten es nach den Erzählungen sichtlich, nicht dabei gewesen zu sein! Zögern Sie nicht, Kontakt aufzunehmen und ein unvergessliches Erlebnis zu genießen.

Sehr informativ, praxisorientiert und das Erlernen der Techniken von Grund auf hilft, sich den Ablauf einzuprägen. Die Lehrerin hat alles sehr gut erklärt und uns neue Kräuter und Gewürze beigebracht und gezeigt, wie man sie in Gerichten verwendet.

Es war von Anfang bis Ende perfekt. Freundlich und professionell, jede Menge Kochspaß (20 Rezepte!!). Ich habe viel über die besonderen Gewürze und Gemüsesorten gelernt, die die indonesische Küche so einzigartig machen.

Hervorragend organisiert, unterhaltsam und freundlich. Sehr informativ mit erfahrenen und sympathischen Damen aus der Region. Zum Abschluss ein köstliches Essen.

Der beste Kochkurs, den ich je besucht habe!

Wirklich gutes Essen und ein super Team!

Dieser Kurs war erstklassig. Unglaublich gut organisiert und professionell. Das Essen war köstlich. Alle Mitarbeiter waren freundlich und kompetent. Tun Sie sich selbst einen Gefallen und buchen Sie! Sehr empfehlenswert.

Das absolute Highlight unserer Bali-Reise! Wir haben das spontan gebucht und waren total begeistert. Beim Marktbesuch und im Kochkurs haben wir viel über die balinesische Kultur gelernt und es hat riesigen Spaß gemacht. Wir haben jede Menge gekocht und ein unglaublich leckeres, sättigendes Mittagessen genossen. Zögert nicht, das zu buchen!

Ich habe am Dienstag, den 20. August, einen Termin mit meiner Tochter.

Erlanda war eine wundervolle Gastgeberin. Die Lage inmitten der Reisfelder war traumhaft. Das Essen war köstlich (frühstücken Sie vorher nicht ausgiebig, da das Mittagessen sehr üppig ist). Ich kann es uneingeschränkt empfehlen!

Mach es einfach! Ein fantastisches Erlebnis in wunderschöner Umgebung mit einem großartigen Küchenchef und seinem Team.

Das gesamte Erlebnis war einfach perfekt (10/10). Vom Marktbesuch in Tanah Lot über den fantastischen Kochkurs bis hin zur Führung durch Tanah Lot. Marktbesuch – Ein absolut einzigartiges Erlebnis: Man schlendert durch den Markt von Tanah Lot, von Stand zu Stand, und erhält detaillierte Erklärungen zu allen angebotenen Waren. Kochkurs – Der absolute Höhepunkt: ein unglaublich fesselndes, unterhaltsames und lehrreiches Erlebnis. Das Rezeptbuch beschreibt alle zubereiteten Gerichte detailliert, sodass man sie ganz einfach zu Hause nachkochen kann! Führung durch Tanah Lot – Die Führung durch Tanah Lot war das i-Tüpfelchen! Es war ein großartiges Erlebnis. Unser witziger und unterhaltsamer Guide hat an den schönsten Orten viele Fotos gemacht und uns außerdem viele Informationen über den Tempel und seine Zeremonien gegeben.

Cannot rate this experience high enough. One of the best day outings I have had.

We've taken quite a few in our travels. The full-day cooking class was awesome. Erlinda and her crew were so fun and engaging. And they were such a well-oiled machine. There were times when they would switch out for one another and you barely even noticed. There were only the two of us on our day but I can imagine it gets crazy with a lot more people. The food was incredible and we're already talking about which recipes we're going to make again at home. Unfortunately, there was way too much food for us to complete. But every but was delicious. I would 100% recommend Erlinda and her crew.

The cooking class was a very authentic experience. We were picked up at Canggu at 8 in the morning. Then we went to an authentic Balinese market, where Erlinda explained to us every Balinese ingredient, as well as traditions one can expect in a traditional market. After that Erlinda took us to her beautiful home and well-equipped cooking studio. Where we got a yummy breakfast and learned how to cook 14 Balinese recipes from scratch, without artificial ingredients or sauces, the atmosphere was terrific and we had such a good time. We also got help from her very friendly helpers. The food and dishes tasted so good. It was amazing how much we cooked in that short period. I would say this was a very authentic and non-touristic experience. I would recommend it and do it again.

An awesome experience. Great food, lovely people and very well run.

This was the best activity we have done in Bali. Amazing food and we learnt so much about the culture and customs of Bali

One of the best cooking classes I’ve ever done! We started with a market tour where we were shown all the produces that are used in Balinese cooking. We also sampled some snacks. We then went back to the cooking school where we had a delightful breakfast of Balinese sweets we had never seen before! Every need was taken care of! I highly recommend this cooking class, it was an incredible experience!! Thank you so much!!

Erlinda was lovely and we made so many delicious Indonesian dishes with her!! This class succeeded our expectations. We loved the temple and market visit! Thank you Erlinda!

Excellent experience. Good driver, excellent host and very friendly ladies helping in the kitchen. Wonderful location for the class. Both educational, fun and filling!

Erlinda and her lovely ladies run a very professional clocking school but at the same time you feel like you are learning to cook Balinese and Indonesian cuisine at home It is hands on at your own station with help from the lovely Erlinda and house ladies. Be ready for lots of cooking after you attended the local traditional produce markets to learn about some of the ingredients you will be using. Also you have your own recipe book of all the recipes and techniques also to make your own notes if wanted

Erlinda you are a chef and teacher of 5-star distinction!!! The day was spent learning not only about the Balinese culture and cuisine but also extend to preparing authentic dishes from other regional parts of Indonesia. Erlinda breaks down the seemingly complicated exotic tastes and mouthwatering flavors of Indonesian dishes into bite-size lessons that are immersive, dynamic, and fun—starting at the local traditional market, then moving on to her vegetable and herb garden, proceeding with prep work and cooking of multiple dishes, and lastly devouring what was just created. Ibu Astrid and Ibu Abi were most helpful. They assisted in the entire cooking experience helping to teach and demonstrate the technique of using the Ulekan (mortar and pestle) to the general cleaning that makes the entire experience seamless. Erlinda only uses help from the local unsung heroines “Ibu rumah tangga” (housewives) of the neighborhood. MEXX Cooking School will have you leaving the day equipped with new knowledge and skills you can immediately implement into your daily cooking routines. I learned a ton while having a blast. What a treat! I would highly recommend this school.

We had such a wonderful experience during this class. Erlinda was very knowledgeable and informative. She took the time to teach us about the local customs and explain the ingredients and different cuisines with us. The staff were all so amazing and helpful as well. We had an amazing time!

It was the best day. The girls explained everything to the T, They were amazing and so much fun. They made us feel like royalty. The food we cooked out of this world. Loved every minute of it.

I enjoyed the small group experience and felt totally at home in this well thought out homely kitchen. Would recommend to anyone looking for that personalized experience.

This class was so fun, engaging and informative. Erlinda and her staff were all so lovely, funny and knowledgeable. There wasn't a minute where I was bored. All of the dishes were easy to follow, the class was seamless and well organised. Can't wait to cook some of these dishes back home. I would definitely do this class again and recommend to anyone coming to Bali!

From start to finish, the whole cooking experience was fantastic! We started our morning with a 7:30am pick up via our host from our hotel with a visit to the local market. We then headed to our hosts home and we were welcomed with a breakfast and coffee before heading downstairs to an excellent professional kitchen where we made some absolutely delicious food with the help of two additional lovely ladies who were on hand to assist us with the dishes. We then headed back upstairs with a welcome beer or a choice of cold drinks , the food that we cooked was presented to us in beautiful dished which we were then able to enjoy! What a truly fabulous experience!! Thank you ever so much

Erlinda has a wonderful talent in making everyone (despite the skills) enjoy their time around food and cooking while introducing at the same time some parts of the local food culture and every day life. It was a privilege to meet the local ladies she works with and we enjoyed the kitchen “chat”. Erlinda has a beautiful setting for the kitchen class at her home and the recipes are professionally prepared and thanks to her international working experience she also can explain how to prepare the food in the recipes at home (e.g. replacement ingredients). Can recommend wholeheartedly!

the class exceeded our expectations! They are recipes that we can really reproduce in our country. We were on our honeymoon and it was a unique experience on our Indonesian trip. They are very professional and friendly.

One of our favorite experiences when traveling in foreign countries is to take a local cooking class. This experience was exceptional, professional, and memorable. Perfect in every way. We cooked a variety of local favorites including Mie Goreng, Nasi Gorden, Soto Ayam, sambal, and several other items. Erlinda and her team were amazing and delightful to spend the afternoon with. They do some of the prep work of measuring portion sizes and chopping up some small items in advance so you spend your time in the kitchen doing the more interesting / rewarding work. The setting is pure tranquility and a lovely space to enjoy the feast you just cooked!

I don’t cook, but Erlinda made me cook and yes I loved it! Traditional Bali and Indonesian favourites shown simply. Knowing how to cook Mer Goreng noodles and Nadi Goreng properly is great! It’s so simple and we learned the special tricks that make it so much more tastier! We will be back and bring our friends! And DON’T eat breakfast!!😂

From the minute we were picked up from our hotel the team were awesome! The market visit was short and informative, the Bali breakfast, coffees and views were amazing and the team was so welcoming. We had great fun in the kitchen learning lots and all “ hands on” which was just what we wanted. 10 amazing dishes cooked. A fabulous easy to follow recipe book and inspiring and basic Bali dishes to cook when we get home!

We really enjoyed all the delicious food we made and the staff were exceptional in their help and explanation of everything. Ir was a most enjoyable time at Mexx the cooking school and I will highly recommend it to my friends.

We really didn’t know what to expect. All the staff were beyond excellent, especially Asterid ( class leader , not sure of her name spelling) Bob and Abby. The lesson was outstanding and the materials to take home were super and appreciated. The quality and taste of the food was 5 star quality in food and service. Beyond that they accommodated a 5 month old baby while we were cooking. There driver met us after the class with an item we forgot in his car. This was one of the main reasons we came to Bali, all our dreams came true. Thank you so much.

The class was fantastic. Erlinda and the other staff were so friendly and so welcoming. The class was very well organised. The pick up was on time, the tour to the traditional market was very interesting, and the cooking class was marvellous. We did the full-day class and made 19 dishes! The menu changes annually; we will be back for more classes in the future. I recommend this class to anyone visiting Bali.

Erlinda and her team run an excellent class. Erlinda is a passionate foodie with enormous local knowledge and great taste in food! You won't leave hungry but you will be full of food and new knowledge of herb and spice profiles of Indonesia. Thank you for a wonderful experience

Fantastic hands on class with a informative market stop first. The sessions were so well prepared and presented. A great day out.

From the time that we were picked up at our hotel, everything was fantastic. Loved everything about the class. Will definitely be back.

We had so much fun and the food we cooked was so fresh and delicious. The group is small so you get a lot of attention and they answer all your questions. Their school is in a more rural area of Bali so that makes it even more fun. Erlinda is super passionate and you can tell! Loved it!

The class was really well run and we made so much food !

Erlinda's bright nature lifted the atmosphere at the start. She shared her knowledge of the area making the trip to her home enjoyable. Sitting on the veranda for traditional breakfast while looking over the countryside was more than we anticipated and we had not even begun our class. The class was so well organised and we were all involved at all time in making the lunch we were to eat. I would definitely attend this class again especially as Erlinda changes the menu each year. Thanks so much for a wonderful experience. Cheryl

Very well co ordinated class. From the market experience to the sit down with other class mates to enjoy the final results, was just amazing. The grounds of the class room are amazing.

Out of 5 star rating, we’d give Erlinda a 10! She has created such a great experience from shopping in the market to learn about food, spices, and Indonesian culture to tasting a typical local breakfast. All this before beginning to cook a range of Indonesian recipes to create a true feast for lunch. The kitchen is set up so well, it allowed everyone to cook every recipe and learn technique, spices, and food combinations. She was so also able to accommodate dietary restrictions without problem. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this program

The whole package, collection, chilled water, market tour and explanations, breakfast, cooking and lunch. Very attentive staff, excellent staff to visitor ratio. Good quality facilities. Warm and welcome. Knowledgeable and funny. Well worth the slightly higher price .

Thanks to cooking class, my understanding of all meals in Bali has since increased. Cooking classes were informative, as well as making and tasting various Indonesian foods. The quality of food was better than any subsequent restaurant. The place where you eat is also nice and the course progress is very systematic and neat. If you are thinking about a cooking class in Bali, I highly recommend it.

The class was hands on,very well prepared and the staff friendly and knowledgeable. Learnt a lot and the food was fantastic.

Such a bright and welcoming atmosphere. Fresh ingredients and wonderful menu of a decent variety of Balinese cuisine.

A very full menu, a wonderful setting and a lovely day. Highly recommend this to anyone with any interest in cooking or eating!

Erlinda and her team were friendly, good fun and informative. We had an amazing experience and learnt such a lot about Indonesian and Balinese food and their cooking techniques. We would highly recommend this cooking class combined with a market tour and would have no hesitation in repeating this tour when next in Bali. Thanks to the welcoming Erlinda and her great team for a most enjoyable day.

The cooking class with Mexx Cooking Class was a great experience. Well planned and easy to follow. Staff were very patient

We had a great day with Erlinda and her staff and learnt so much. The cooking school setting is beautiful and relaxing. Enjoyed going to the local market in the morning. We were collected from our hotel by Bob who explained different things as we drove along. All in all a fantastic day and well worth it. Thank you Mexx cooking school.

Erlinda was incredible and the ladies helping her were all great teachers, what a wonderful experience

Erlinda was fantastic, the way she explained the fruits and veg at the market and tasting of some was awesome. Their preparation was great and selection of meals were so tasty. The garden tour with explanation was very informative and gives an incite to the way the balinese live. Their staff were the most polite people you would come across. Would do this again and happliy pay more. We had an awesome day. Thanks Erlinda and team.

Erlinda was very organised and knowledgeable. The setup for cooking and the deck we ate the meal was beautiful!

We started with the market tour which was fantastic as we learnt a lot about local fruits and vegetables. The class was very hands on with a local housewife watching over us as we cooked. Time went so fast and the food we made was amazing. We made 9 dishes and feasted on what we made at the end and sampled some of the other students meals. The work stations were well set out. The only downside to the class was not having more time with the chef as 98% of her time was spent with the vegetarian couples in the class. We were a little disappointed as her knowledge would have been invaluable to our experience. I recommendmend this class.

We had a great morning. Very education and informative while still being fun and entertaining. Five star experience. Will definitely do it again and reccomend it to anyone. Thanks to all involved

Great class, friendly and professional staff. We had a great morning! Would recommend anyone coming to Bali to get a little culture and great food.

We only had 3 days in Bali and SO happy we decided to do the cooking class with MEXX. It was a great hands-on experience, and very educational. The trip to the market prior to the class was insightful, and Erlinda's home/cooking school location was beautiful!

What an amazing cooking class! If you are looking for an activity that we delight not only your eyes but also your tastebuds, then you have come to the right place! This cooking class combines traditional Indonesian food and Balinese cooking techniques. They picked me up from the hotel and we had a visit to the local market to get our fresh ingredients. Then we went straight to Erlinda's kitchen. The ambiance was relaxing, clean and organized. It was a picture perfect scenario of traditional Indonesian experience. At the end of the course, we were able to learn 9 Balinese dishes, shared it with one another and had a great time, conversation and laughter. I will definitely be back!

We had a great day... It went a bit longer than originally planned but a great spot and learned a few things.

Well organised and passionate host/owner. My parents were happy with the arrangements. Very hands-on experience and with help from some assistants, they were able to learn 9 dishes in half a day. Mum was pointing out the dishes that she learnt when we had Bali-nese meals the next few days after the lesson:) Thanks host!

We went on the 13th of September to MEXX cooking school. Erlinda (host/chef-instructor) picked us up from our hotel, to go to the traditional market. Great explanation of the herbs, spices and vegetables. The Cooking itself was at her home in a specially designed area with plenty of room. We cooked several nice courses, which actually was fun to do! After that the self made rise-table was served and tasted really good! I would recommend this culinary cooking class to everybody who's planning to go to Bali!

The kids and I really enjoyed the cooking course with Erlinda. The food and drinks were delicious. But it is not just about the cooking - the full package left me with a memorable experience. The story of Erlinda and Markus, and how they built their life in Bali is fascinating. Their wonderful home in the middle of herbal plants and fruit trees is a great location for cooking. After the cooking course the visit to the Tanah Lot temple with Erlindas personal attention was great! Pick up from and drop back to Seminyak was very comfortable.

Really well organised. Great host and teacher, lovely facility and superb food!

Great day, lovely people and excellent recipes.

Erlinda the host was engaging, warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. It was a complete privilege to spend the day cooking and then learning about Tanah Lot. We visited the temple with her and were treated like family. Her school is neat Tanah Lot in the middle of rice fields. Peaceful and beautiful. Her driver was very safe. Once in a lifetime experience- but we will be back to do it all again.

Incredible experience with Erlinda. She goes beyond expectations.

Onwijs vriendelijke mensen die graag vertellen over Bali, de specerijen, groenten en andere dingen die je tijdens de workshop tegenkomt. Wij hebben de full day workshop gedaan, met een bezoek aan een traditionele markt, een ontbijt, een lunch, een les over de kruiden, een proeferij van lokaal tropisch fruit, een diner en het maken van een eigen offermandje. En dat alles op een mooie locatie!

We enjoyed this cooking class a lot! Great chef, amazing food, great atmosphere, and a wonderful villa with a gorgeous view of rice fields and the ocean! It's a must for everyone visiting Bali and looking for a suggested cooking experience.

Erlinda was an amazing host! Everyone that comes to Bali this is definitely a must do before leaving.

This is the best cooking class I have done and I’ve done 3 others. My second time there. It was a different experience again. Very informative and the staff are wonderful. Hands on and the food is delicious . Awesome time had by all. I would recommend doing this class.

Great class fun and informative. Enjoyed market tour and the ladies involved in the class were helpful and fun to share the morning with. Have some great knowledge to go home with and recreate. Thanks to all.

My Mum and I chose this cooking School because they have a full day program with a tour of the markets. We were not disappointed. I have been to cooking schools in Thailand, Myanmar and Cambodia and this was by far the best one. The day consisted of being driven from our hotel, market tour with explanations, traditional breakfast, herb explanations, tour of their own home garden, cooking entree's and then eating them on the balcony overlooking a divine view. For the rest of the day we cooked main courses and desert and then ate even more. Not just three dishes either....we cooked 17 dishes!! Erlinda, Abbi and Mega were just delightful with traditional stories of Balinese culture, interesting Hindu facts and a lot of fun and laughs. Interestingly Marcus (Erlinda's husband) is starting another business which just looks amazing - called the Bali Fat Bike Cycling. This is a fat tyre electric bike tour along the rice terraces and the beach with breakfast and lunch cooked by Marcus who was a chef on a large cruise liner. Afterwards they even have a beautiful pool on their property you can swim in. The new business starts on Monday 21 May 2018. If we were staying longer I would definitely have done that to experience more of this families charming hospitality. 5 stars from me. A must do in Bali. :)

The best cooking class I have ever been on. Erlinda and her helpers were amazing from the time we were picked up until we got back to villa was amazing. We learned so much and cooked and ate food better than any Indonesian restaurant we have been to. Highly recommended!

This is the best cooking class I have been to...

Awesome experience

From the minute we were collected from our Villa we had a professional, educational and fun day. Erlinda was knowledgeable, friendly and very professional. The cooking school is extremely well laid out in a very quiet, picturesque and calming environment. What can I say about the cooking experience?... AWESOME, interesting, delicious and enjoyable. I have been to cooking classes in many countries but this was the best by far.. DO IT..... A FANTASTIC DAY OUT

Going into this program I hadn’t any idea what to expect as I hadn’t read any reviews or had done much research at the time I booked. MIND BLOWN. The experience was especially impressive as I am a solo traveler. Erlinda is by far one of the most interesting, knowledgeable and grounded humans I’ve met. She’s personable, attentive and really goes above/beyond. Tour was beautiful. Erlinda picked me up at my hotel after dropping her two kids off to school and we rode to a local market. She stopped to explain every sort of fruit/vegetable there was - smelling, feeling, etc. Everything we reviewed was built into lessons I learned later today when we got into the kitchen. The actual kitchen space is a part of her house. It’s location is remote and peaceful among fields of vegitation (she actual grows a number of ingredients you use in her own yard!). The class was entirely hands on and even came with a recipe book I could take notes in - perfect. At the end of the experience I was extended the opportunity to stuff my face with the smorgasbord I had created (photo attached). We rounded out our time together with a trip to Tanah Lot temple. Erlinda was so well versed and had answers to every question I threw at her. On my next trip to Bali, I will most certainly be returning. Thank you again Erlinda!!

Everything about the class was amazing, from the pickup, to the market tour, the lesson on herbs and spices, the cooking itself as well as the lunch overlooking the beautiful green paddy fields. Erlinda even showed us the traditional way to cook rice and to blend the spices using a mortar and pestle - indeed an eye opener for a city dweller like me.

Booked the full day Cooking Class and had the most fantastic day! Erlinda and her team took great care of me and I learned a lot. Not only about cooking Balinese & Indonesian food from scratch, but also about herbs & spices used in the kitchen and exotic fruits most of them grown in their own garden. We started off with a traditional market tour and afterwards had yummy Balinese breakfast on their spacious terrace overlooking the beautiful rice fields. All of the dishes cooked were delicious, but my favorites the Balinese Spicy Green Papaya Soup & the Beef Rendang. Thank you so much again for an unforgettable day! I can highly recommend this cooking class to everyone!

MEXX The Cooking School was wonderful! We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Erlinda and her staff. The market visit was very informative. I really enjoyed the fruit tasting and spice demonstration. We cooked a feast and we’re able to enjoy the delicious meal. I will be using the recipes and techniques when I go home. Bring your appetite and camera!

Best cooking class we could imagine. Great guidance, deep knowledge, amazing food in a perfectly modern place. Our best day in Bali sound far :)

Our great experience commenced at our pick up time, being greeted by the lovely Erlinda and her very professional driver in her impressive cooking school van. Visiting the local market was a fun experience you can not enjoy truly unless is done with a knowledgeable local and Erlinda gave us great information on local fruits, vegetables, coconut grinding etc - all ingredients purchased fresh for our cooking class. Back at her cooking school we were greeted by her lovely staff and a very refreshing Papaya smoothie made from her home grown produce. The actual class was fantastic and the end result was very generous and succulent - we couldn’t fit one more rice grain in to us! We even left with our own recipe book!! We recommend Erlinda to anyone visiting Bali as a must do!!

The best I have been to in Bali. Have been to three others but this one was the best for everything

I have tried three other cooking classes and this would have to be the best cleanest, friendly and her teaching skills are the best
