DESIGN your idyllic experiences during your visit in Bali. Spending holidays does not necessarily mean only visiting favorite destinations, taking adventure or watching cultural shows. Explore also the other fascinations offered by the island.
Numerous ways can enable you to get in touch with local culture. One of which is by having a closer look at the flavor through interactive cooking class of the Indonesian or Balinese food. Other than getting involved in person from the preparation, at the end you will get the opportunity to taste your own creation. Absolutely, it is a wonderful experience.
By and large, the class will start from the purchase of ingredients and spices to traditional market nearby. Visiting traditional market is just like a morning market tour while observing the uniqueness of local market and distinctive products on sale. Directed by well-experienced F & B instructor or chef, you are able to ask questions about the food to be prepared and the spices to be used. Sometimes, the purchase of ingredients to traditional market is not necessary because everything has been prepared by hotel.
After arriving back at hotel from shopping in the market, it is resumed with cooking demonstration and practice. All participants are invited to select and grind the spices. Step by step of the preparation is taught by friendly and helpful instructor. When everything is okay, it is ended with lunch at restaurant.
This kind of cooking class is widely offered in various hotels and villas in Bali as optional activity. If you happen to stay around Ubud, this activity is also offered at The Lokha Ubud. It is a luxury resort, villa and spa located among the beautiful and verdant cliff near Wos River, Bangkiangsidem, Keliki village, Tegallalang. Here the cooking class is held at restaurant near poolside. (www.thelokhaubud.com)
