Penebel Aulas de Culinária

A caminhada foi perfeita, as vistas eram deslumbrantes e aprendemos muito sobre a natureza e como as coisas funcionam nos arrozais. A comida que preparamos estava incrível. Meus filhos de 8 e 11 anos, que são bem exigentes com comida, experimentaram tudo! Eles ficaram muito animados depois de colherem os ingredientes e prepararem tudo. Made, Desi e sua família foram muito acolhedores e felizes em compartilhar sua cultura. Adoramos e recomendamos mil vezes.

Meu parceiro e eu tivemos um dia incrível nesta aula de culinária. É realmente uma oportunidade dois em um: ver de perto os terraços de arroz de Jatiluwih e aprender mais sobre a culinária indonésia. Como outros já mencionaram, a família é adorável e tudo é super fácil, incluindo o transporte de ida e volta. Foi um dos pontos altos da nossa viagem e eu recomendo muito para quem busca uma experiência mais autêntica em Bali.

Uma aula de culinária fantástica, ministrada por uma família. É uma ótima oportunidade dois em um: conhecer os terraços de arroz de Jatiluwih e ter uma introdução à culinária indonésia. A família é extremamente simpática e acolhedora. Gostei muito do ambiente de grupo pequeno e da conexão pessoal com a família. Recomendo fortemente.

Uma experiência realmente incrível. Muito mais do que cozinhar, você passeia por vilarejos, caminha pelo jardim, pelos terraços de arroz e aprende muito. A comida que você prepara é fresca, saudável e deliciosa. Os anfitriões Made, sua família e Karma foram ótimos, tornando o passeio interessante e com paisagens deslumbrantes. Recomendo sem hesitar.

This Balinese cooking experience was truly one of the highlights of my trip. We were welcomed so warmly and taught about the herbs and spices grown throughout the surrounding villages and rice terraces, which made the experience feel deeply connected to the culture and land. During the class, we cooked traditional Balinese dishes and enjoyed everything on site. The food was absolutely delicious, and we were even given a take-home cookbook with the recipes we prepared, which was such a thoughtful touch. What made this experience even more special was the host and his assistants, some of whom were family members. They were honestly some of the most hospitable people I met during my time in Bali. They shared not only cooking techniques, but also meaningful insight into Balinese culture, including how rice is a staple at every meal, how families often cook once a day, and how warungs play such an important role in daily life. This was more than just a cooking class — it was a beautiful cultural experience. A must-try while in Bali. It will not disappoint!

We were picked up from our hotel and driven to Jatiluwih by Karma who talked to us about the areas we drove through and gave us information about the impending festival in a few days time as all the villages were putting up decorations. At the UNESCO Jatiluwih rice fields we were greeted by Made and we had a leisurely walk to his organic rice and vegetable farm, while he pointed out different trees and told us about the Subak system farmers are a part of. Once at Kuba Terrace he switched into chef mode and we walked on his farm to collect ingredients for our dishes. In the main kitchen his wife and assistants were busy grating and chopping and we were doing the same in the workshop kitchen. Altogether we made 2 starters, a couple of key sauces such as Bumbu bali and satay sauce, four or five dishes for main and to finish off fried bananas and coffee. Made and his wife were excellent hosts and our meals were delicious- and whats more we feel confident in replicating them at home. This is highly recommended for those who want an authentic experience of food, culture and amazing landscape.

Made and his family are great hosts. After walking through unesco listed rice terraces, we harvested vegies and herbs from the garden then cooked 7 dishes for lunch / delicious!

Could not recommend this cooking experience high enough. Starting our day picked up on time ftom our accommodation, we travelled in air conditioned comfort to the start of our personal guided walking tour through the rice fields to our final cooking destination. The walk was suitable for most levels of fitness, and there was plenty of opportunities to take in the breathtaking visa. Arriving at the organic farm/kitchen our host guided us through the garden to sample and hand select herbs and vegetables for our meal. In the kitchen we were carefully guided to create a three course meal of decadent flavours and textures. This experience has been a highlight of our Bali adventure. .

Beautiful location, lovely host/s and so nice ot be invited into their house

We got picked up at the hoptel and had a wonderful day cycling through the rice fields with Arie and then learning how to cook traditional Indonesian food. You first go and collect most of the food out the garden so you know its super fresh, just the meat we didn't collect ourselves. After cooking the food you get to eat it in the most idilic surroundings possible with true authentic food. We also cooked a number of satés on the BBQ which tasted amazing. Then to finish it all off fried bananas for pudding. Then you are bought back to your hotel with a book of the recipes so you can cook them at home. Our hosts Made and his wife were wonderful and the best hosts you could possibly have. We would recommend this experience to anybody on Bali

An incredible experience!!! Made met us at the top of the terraces and we wandered down to his family home at the bottom. Along the way, we learnt so much about their agricultural practices, how and when they harvest, how they deter pests and get the best out of their produce. At Kubu Terrace, Made and his lovely wife Debbie hosted us for an authentic Indonesian cooking class. 6 courses, all imade by us!!! We. Collected herbs, vegetables and fruits from their garden and slwith their expert guidance cooked up a storm. The flavours were vibrant amd just next level. Highly recommend this experience.A wonderful combination of multi-generational knowledge, tradition and culture. Dont miss this one!!!!

The hotel pick-up was perfectly on time, and we were taken to a stunning UNESCO World Heritage organic rice field. The scenery was breathtaking. The cooking class began with harvesting our own organic vegetables, and from there we learned to prepare seven different traditional Balinese dishes — all hands-on. I was deeply impressed by the process of making coconut milk from freshly shredded coconut. The flavors were pure, wholesome, and different from the processed tastes you often find in restaurants — delicious in a way that made my stomach feel happy. Our host entertained us from the drive to the class itself, serving as both the instructor and even playing traditional xylophone music for us. I would love to join again the next time I visit Bali.

Great people, wonderful location and genuine in their endeavours to give an experience. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

A fantastic hands-on experience in a beautiful setting. Made and his team are very professional and entertaining at the same time. The recipes are very clear and delicious . Don’t hesitate, just go and enjoy!!

We had a really enjoyable day with Made (Mahday) and his family - the Jatilwah rice terraces are truly stunning. We picked what we then cooked and were able to set up a little competitive cooking between family members and then all sat down to eat together. We felt real members of their family and it was a truly exceptional life affirming day - thank you Made ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
