Bali cooking class
We had an amazing experience with Chef Kadek and assistant chef Eri. The market visit was fantastic to start the class, would highly recommend to book this as well. Chef Kadek explained all of the recipes very well and the food tasted fabulous. Eri cooked the satay skewers to perfection. The tuna from the market was delicious, even my non fish eating husband and son loved it!
Would highly recommend this experience, well above 5 stars!!

Fun and relaxing
Very friendly staff who looked after us nicely. A fun evening afterall. The setting is in tranquil and lovely place with a memorable experience. Dessert was delicious!
Steamed fish was overcooked unfortunately.
Cocktails were not that great. Prices are steep but I guess we pay for the venue.
