This was a very special day. This cooking and culture class is incredible and is for people interested in learning about how Balinese people live, their religious traditions, AND learning how to prepare the amazing foods. You will do a lot of the cooking and prep and the result is the best food I’ve had so far on our trip. The chef speaks great English and he is full of knowledge he shares! It was a wonderful experience in his family home.

An unforgettable culinary and cultural journey!
Beyond the cooking class, which was very well explained step by step, with the discovery of local ingredients, it was a true culinary and cultural journey that was offered to us.
The location, a traditional Indonesian house, the kindness and patience of the chef and his family, the tasting of the prepared dishes... an unforgettable late afternoon with recipes to recreate at home!

Culinary day
Magnificent day with Made who picked us up from the hotel , then took us directly to the market , frequented only by Balinese . Far from the tourist tumult. Market with a thousand colors. We discovered the different spices, fruits , grilled pig , thanks to Made's patient explanations . He welcomed us to his superb home with coffee and delicious banana donuts. Very precise, patient, cheerful , it allowed us to cook a full meal that we then enjoyed . Surrounded by his family who work all along, we spent a day that will remain a beautiful memory. Suksama Mady!!!

Incredible experience
Book this! It was an amazing experience. We thoroughly enjoyed the market and felt privileged to be welcomed into the beautiful family compound.
The warmth and professionalism shown was wonderful. The class was extremely well organised and we learnt much about the culture, too. Lunch was incredible. Highly recommended.

Valuable experience
What a wonderful day we've just had at the Lobong cooking experience.
We were picked up from our hotel at 8am and taken to join our classmates at the local markets. All the time while driving then guiding us through the markets, Made shared life in Bali. Happy to answer all our questions we learnt so much!
After the market trip, we arrived at his family compound.
Beautifully landscaped gardens show the pride they have in their home and it was a pleasure to share it with them for the morning.
The cooking was taught in a similar manner - with generosity and kindness.
Our group had a wide range of ages and all felt included.
Made was supported by his family who were also attentive and kind.
The menu was delicious with far more food than we could eat. The group voted the chicken curry the winner.
Our drive back to Ubud was full of more background and information. A truly valuable experience and great way to learn more about this island

Highly recommended! Deep experience in Ubud life
This experience has been unforgettable! Sang Made Merta share his experience about cooking and about how is life in Bali with us and we appreciated it really. I would say that it’s a mystic experience that I highly recommend to all people that visit Ubud. The food was amazing definitely and we ate what we cooked together before. Thanks Sang Made for making us collecting new memories 🙏🏿
