Summary:
We are so very glad we did this class! The combination of the cooking class itself (multiple fun techniques and recipes taught - very tasty!) and the home tour was great! Our hosts were friendly and welcoming and it was so interesting to learn much more about the complex Balinese culture than we otherwise would have without doing this tour!

Summary:
I came here solo with what I think are very little cooking skills and Ron and Putri were great at explaining things and very kind and respectful. I got to learn more about Balinese culture and the family home which I hadn’t gotten a chance to from other tours so it was very interesting. Everything is set up well and there’s lots of help whenever you need. Thank you guys!!
