課程介紹

When you book this Private class the total price is for 1- 4 guests.  

Tresna means "love" in Balinese. Our school is built out of love. It would be a mistake to see us as “just another cooking class”. We are NOT an afterthought in a hotel’s restaurant or a table set up in someone’s family compound. We flipped the concept on its head and built our cooking school from the ground up.

Imagine chopping and mixing in a dream kitchen that’s clean, hygienic and functional. You'll pick the freshest ingredients in an organic garden that Adi’s planted. You'll learn recipes - not found anywhere else in Bali - unique Ceremonial and home-cooked dishes. With our shared love of food and cooking, you will delve into hands-on lessons that feature your hands, not ours.

Authentic Balinese Home Cooking
Real Balinese food is a well-hidden secret from tourists. Why? Real Balinese Food is elaborate Ceremonial Food. Or it’s the simplest food cooked behind the walls of a family compound. Our menus are Adi’s original recipes of traditional favourites - honed over decades of cooking for loved ones. We have 38 Recipes where you’ll learn 14 of them in one morning! You’ll cook authentic Balinese Ceremonial dishes as well as family home-cooked dishes. You’ll personally taste and pick the freshest of ingredients from our gardens!

Riverside Gardens

Our riverside land is pure virgin jungle and completely organic. You can practically taste the goodness in everything you pick! Look up and you’ll see towering coconut trees and mature tropical fruit trees such as durian, jackfruit, and rambutan. Beyond our beautiful location, we’re systemic in our approach. Having organized some of the most exclusive weddings on the island, we are applying our event expertise to our passion – authentic Balinese food and traditional living culture. Join us in our riverside garden where you pick your very own organic ingredients, using it in the freshest dishes moments later. We redefine "plant to platter" with food, grown steps away from our table.

Your experience

Our class menus are a celebration of the freshest ingredients of that season and that day. Adi will teach you his step-by-step recipes that he’s honed over 3 decades. You’ll be immersed in a hands-on cooking class, learning 15 authentic Balinese recipes, not found anywhere else. You'll get an "inside" view of real Balinese life – learning the secrets of Balinese ceremony and the special role of food in Temple offerings.

Start by gathering unusual ingredients from our organic gardens. Each of you will have your very own cooking station for making spices, and shared stations for the dishes. You’ll cook 2 salads, 4 mains, 2 sides, 1 dessert and several spicy sambals. We guarantee that you can repeat all of our dishes at home if you have access to Asian supermarkets with fresh ingredients.
