Ubud

If you are looking for a perfect organised, traditional balinese cooking class in a very clean kitchen at a family house, you are absolutely right! The evening was more than we expected, no rush, not too long, super friendly, perfect english und so tasty! Try it!

We absolutely loved our cooking class! The whole family was involved and it was such a unique experience from a full market walking tour with explanations of each fruit and vegetable to cooking in their home and enjoying seeing a traditional Balinese home. Our guide even brought us to the coffee plantation nearby for an extra treat! So keep in mind they offer you beer but you need to pay after so make sure you bring cash / are prepared to pay for things there! Great experience!

Highly recommend! Would absolutely book again! I am so glad I booked this cooking experience in Bali! It was beyond anything I could’ve ever imagined from start to finish. I booked the morning cooking class and we began by going to a local market to learn about local foods so there that we would use in her cooking later. We were also lucky enough to stop by a coffee and tea plantation/rice fields where we tried some of the best coffee NT I’ve ever tasted. Then finally we were off to the home of a very lovely family showed us how to cook many traditional Indonesian dishes. We also learned how to make coconut oil. The entire family was amazing – so accommodating, welcoming, friendly, and just all-around lovely. My favorite experiences in Bali and I would 100% do it again. If you’re thinking about booking a cooking class I highly recommend you book this one.

the staff was amazing! they were super kind and they took a lot of care of us. they shared experiences with us and we could see where and how they live. they taught us everything in the kitchen and the food at the end was very very good :) we had a very nice time! 100% recomendable :)

The best experience I've made in Ubud. So friendly people and so much fun. We were just two guys in the group but is was still nice and so delicious. I love the fact that the cooking class is not in a restaurant but in a real home from a really happy and helpful family.

I am really suggest you should do this program. When I arrived at Taro village, the man gave me so beautiful Salong, which was really good. and he explained so nicely, gave me a welcome drink, young coconut juice. Also I can look around many fruit trees and animals. also he drove me by motobike, it was really safe and I can look around rice filed. It was the best time since I’ve stayed in Bali.

Such a wonderful experience! Nyoman is so knowledgeable and I've learnt so much about Balinese food and culture. I would highly recommend it! Thank you!

We had a wonderful time at the Paon Balinese cooking class. The instructors were so fun and helpful and the meal we all helped prepare was fabulous! We would definitely recommend this class to anyone interested in taking a cooking class in Ubud!

This was such an amazing experience, my whole family loved it and I am so glad we did it. From the market, walking through a beautiful rice field, to the fantastic cooking class and of course the eating. Thanks for letting us be part of this.

My partner and I did a cooking course in Bali and we had such an amazing time and I just can’t wait to try out the recipes we learnt during our time there

We attended this cooking class last week and it was one of the highlights of my trip! I am very big on cooking and love learning about different countries ways of using ingredients and staples. The market tour was a perfect start to get an insight and taste some of the different ingredients we don’t have in Australia, from there continued back to our private cooking hut where we had a very hands on class with our hilarious and lovely teacher ‘Water Scoop’. His English was awesome and explained everything in depth and showed a real passion for cooking! The scenery/view from our private hut was incredible and gave us a real sense of feeling we were in the middle of Ubud. To finish off we ate all of the cooked dishes in the restaurant and every dish did not disappoint! My favourite was the fish cooked in banana leaf with tomato and the yellow paste which we made from scratch. I cannot wait to cook the menu for my family when I am back home in Sydney!

There are no words. It was fantastic and well organised from beginning to end. We ran on time, we ate like kings, we laughed, and our instructor Darren was knowledgeable and informative. I went alone as a birthday present to myself as i love to cook...... Best way to start my day. The farm and school are beautiful and i hope they continue with their amazing work. Staff were terrific. This was more than a 5 star experience.

The market tour was so good, we had a little history lesson and played guess the fruit and vegetables, durian is still yukki but each to their own. We then went to the farm/home and played with the animals, 5 very cute buggies and many more. After that we then went to the kitchen where the aunties were prepping the food we would've cooking and learning about, we talked and leant about all the wonderful properties and uses of the spices and ingredients we were going to use and tasted some of their home grown roasted and brewed coffee. We made 5 different traditional dishes with great instruction and laughter with our guide, I would recommend this to anyone who likes food and is interested in learning about how to make it all when you get home.

It was so nice to arrive at this cooking school after being picked up from our accommodation. The food and cooking skills all really well explained. With loads of fun we were taught methods of cooking and after putting several dishes together we sat down and ate our way through a delicious array of beautiful food. Something for everyone including dessert. Vegetarian option available. Met a lot of fun people as a bonus. Would recommend this class highly!!

The instructor (Made) was very patient in answering all of our questions. The overall experience was enriching and fun. Made even taught us to cook dishes outside of the set recipes so we can get the most out of this cooking class. (We made 12 dishes in total and had to pack takeaway) You get to pick your own ingredients from the organic farm. The kitchen lady (Wayan) was extremely helpful and made our cooking experience easy. The cooking farm promotes plastic free by providing bamboo straws, banana leaves wrapping and paper wrapping.

As we were a bit early the experience started with a quick tour of the paddy fields. The whole experience was managed and organised so well. Although we had 9 dishes to make, at no point did we feel rushed. The dishes were easy enough that I feel confident that after making it once I could easily replicate this again from home. I could not recommend this highly enough.

I've done tons of cooking classes all over the world, and this one was extremely well done. Professional instructors taught me how to make 7 authentic Balinese recipes, which was awesome since I always need more recipe content for my website. I wrote an in-depth review https://cookingtoentertain.com/bali-farm-cooking-class/ with tons of pictures. I loved the fact that almost everything was farm to table, so as we picked herbs and spices on the farm the guide told us exactly how they would be used when we started to cook. I found the English level of the instructors to be sufficient, and especially loved the fact that they offered pick up and drop off service. If I was staying in Ubud longer I would have loved to do their more advanced class since some of those dishes look good as well.

We are very grateful for the experience which we enjoyed so much! The setting is so beautiful. The class is very informative and done is such fun way. Our Master Chef was fantastic.We learned so much about Bali, its people and cooking traditions. The lesson about the spices and cooking preparations was great and we can recommend to anyone wishing to learn to cook Balinese food. Alex and Shane Mace

The Staff was excellent, very nice an communicative! Everything was perfectly planned and executed. The food was great and I learned a lot. The venue is beautiful and you have an amazing open kitchen with jungle view. I definitely recommend taking this class!

Apart from the fact we believed we’d be taken around the market and we weren’t! It was an amazing and fun experience, cooking together and they made sure our vegetarian needs were fulfilled. The food was so delicious and they even let us take home the rest!

not only does one get a cooking class you get a look into the homes and culture of the Bali people while enjoying the most delicious food. Plenty of instructors to guide you and near perfect English leave you satisfied beyond your stomach.

We highly recommend this cooking class to everyone loving food, Balinese culture as well as having a blast. The whole event was very well organized from pick up to drop off. We had such a great time chatting about culture and the life and practicing traditional Balinese cooking. We cooked different meals from soups to desserts and enjoyed all of them. Above all we were lucky to be just the 2 of us so we could use it as an romantic dinner on top. This event is worth every money and you should not miss it on your stay in Bali!

The teacher was super friendly, funny and happy to accomodate to different dietary requirements, as myself and my friend who I booked with are vegetarian. I loved how the course integrated traditional methods of cooking, and particularly taught us how to make an array of different dishes from one base. I also enjoyed taking the afternoon course because there were only four people including myself doing it, which felt like a more intimate group. They provided us with a recipe book at the end, which I can't wait to use. Thanks for having us!

I can't praise this experience enough. Everyone from the drivers to the guides, teachers and support staff were kind, friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and had the patient of saints. We were part of two combined groups of very mixed ages and abilities, but they took it all in their stride. No-one was left behind, everyone was given support and attention during the cooks so we all ended up with some beautiful dishes to enjoy. A really relaxed, enjoyable and informative - not to mention delicious! - experience. Thank you so much!

Finally a cooking class where you actually get to cook everything yourself, 100% hands on. So glad we chose Ketut's cooking class. What a wonderful morning we had! Great driver for pick up & drop off & friendly guide for the market.(would have preferred to have skipped the market part as not particularly pleasant) The whole team throughout the cooking class was Fabulous. Everything very well coordinated and organised. Fun and entertaining and food was delicious. Skip breakfast! Always taken care of with cold bottled water. Very accomodating for Vegetarians & recipes to take home a bonus.

We had a great day! Visited the the market where the local people shop then to Geralds home for the class. Walked through the Organic Farm and picked produce needed for our lunch. We all chopped, cooked and learnt how to make some amazing dishes. Thank you Gerald and your family . From Maryanne and Michelle

One of the best things we've done in Bali! Classes are run by passionate people, smiling and willing to answer all your questions. It's also organised by the local community, helping local people to find a job that they can enjoy. The food we've cooked was delicious! Picking up and trying fresh ingredients on the market and on the farm was both fun and educational. We went with the vegan option, which was basically the same as the vegetarian one - we just didn't use eggs in our recipes. We also got a small booklet with all the recipes we've cooked plus a few more. The groups aren't too big, and the overall organisation is very smooth - they definitely know what they're doing. You also get a chance to meet (and cook with) people from around the world, which is also a great plus. If you have any doubt whether you should opt for it - have no more. You won't regret any minute or penny spent on it.

I would highly recommend booking this class! My friends and I had loads of fun cooking up indonesian dishes and learning more about the indonesian culture around food. I have barely any cooking experience and the food still came out amazing! This class was one of the highlights of my friends' and I's trip to Bali.

This class is not to be missed! The chef explained all the ingredients in detail and gave us very clear instructions on how to prepare the food. The food was delicious!! It was also an unforgettable experience to cook in a Balinese home, we loved learning about the culture!

We really enjoyed the class and learned a lot. Everyone was very professional and fun. The experience was excellent! Leah and Alan

My husband and I took this cooking class during our honeymoon in Bali. Overall, we had a nice experience. The family who runs this class is warm, patient and welcoming. They happily shared details of their culture, traditions and recipes, and were patient in answering everyone's questions. Our only "complaint" is that the class was WAY overbooked -- there were about 15 students in this class and it made the class feel impersonal and rushed. We were split up and told "do this, now do that..." but didn't really have time to absorb the things we were learning. Also, my husband and I didn't spend much time learning to cook these Indonesian recipes together because we were split up. The class also started late because we were waiting for many students to arrive. Perhaps the late start caused the rush, or maybe it was the number of students in the class; but either way, we wish there was a slower, more hands-on and togetherness vibe for the class. It was worth the price though, because the recipes were delicious, but we wanted to share our honest review. Thanks!

OK, I highly recommend taking this class. The drivers, guides, and cooks are all so helpful and kind. They will even call you brother or sister when you are cooking. It is one of the cheaper cooking classes in Bali, and you can definitely notice that. There is nothing in this class that is absolutely astonishing or mind-blowing, the class is all about family and fun. They assist you throughout the whole process, making sure you are making the dishes tasty and more importantly correctly. It is just wholesome fun and good cooking. I 10/10 recommend taking this class if you want a cheap but amazing cooking class!

The class was very well organised and run by Mate and Rudy the teachers. All dishes were delicious and we all had clear instructions while we made each dish, and assistance along the way at any time. My husband and I really enjoyed all the dishes, and plan on making these now we are back home. In fact, just today I googled to check if we could buy tempeh here......great news, we can! So that and Gado Gado are at the top of the list on my cooking new dishes this weekend! It was an absolute pleasure to meet all staff at Pemulan Farm Cooking School, and would highly recommed it to anyone who is thinking of doing a cooking class while in Bali. Kind regards, Di and Geoff

I would highly recommend this class to get out of the touristy things in Ubud and really experience traditional Balinese culture and cooking. Made is so generous allowing us to come into her home and cook in her kitchen with her cousin and husband. The atmosphere was food and food was delicious!

Absolutely delighted to have picked this course out of the many advertised. We were collected and taken through the door rice fields and local markets which gave us a real taste of local Balinese life and culture. We arrived at the home to find out we were the only two in the class for that evening! Perfect!! The day was truly organised and good fun. We learned how to make some delicious recipes and received a copy of each to take home. Thanks for the lovely experience!!
