Balinese Cooking Class

Immerse yourself in the rich culinary heritage of Bali at Ancut Petanu’s Cooking Class. Set beside the serene Petanu River in Tampaksiring, our class gives you a hands-on experience preparing authentic Balinese dishes under the guidance of our expert local chefs.

Choose from our Vegetarian or Non-Vegetarian menu — or try both! Every dish is made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients harvested from Balinese farms and gardens. Whether you’re a first-time cook or an experienced foodie, our class is designed to be fun, educational, and deeply rooted in Balinese culture.
