Top Ubud Dining Experiences

Real authentic cooking experience in Putu’s open air kitchen. Very well explained and excellent food. Great experience. Family Van Delm

My friends and I had the best time with Putu!! The market tour and cooking class were probably one of our favorite Bali experiences. We are so grateful to Putu for opening her home to us. She introduced us to Balinese food and recipes, and also gave us a glimpse into family, personal lives, and religious and cultural traditions. I would absolutely recommend this experience to everyone. If I come back to Bali, I would definitely enjoy another visit with her!

Amazing time! Will definitely be back

Putu, Pashka and Made hosted my wife and I to a great cooking class. To be welcomed into the family compound was an honour. Putu described the compound layout and architecture aswell as diving deep into the gods which Putu offers everyday. We prepared six meals which all tasted fantastic because of the depth that Putu taught in traditional techniques. I seldom review anything on the internet. I genuinely recommend this Balinese cooking class.

Market in Ubud opposite the King's residence. Market characterized by the usual asking high prices and then maybe offering you the same goods at the very low price. A huge amount of clothing sponsoring Ubud and Bali.... good sandals and comfortable shoes for walking...In the countless tents are almost all women who sell with kind and attractive ways.

Had an amazing experience with Putu and her family! Putu is very warm and hospitable. She also taught us to make amazing Balinese food. It felt like hanging out with family. Her garden is absolutely lovely. Would highly recommend to anyone who is visiting Bali.

Everyone gives Putu a 5 out of 5. But she should get a ten. We learned a lot about Hindu, Indonesian culture and lots about food too. I have taken food tours all over the world. The only other one that comes close is Chaing Mai’s farm cooking school. Get ready to be thrilled by a genuine classy lady.

We had an amazing time with Putu at the market and then back to her Village and home. Thank you so much for the informative class Putu. The kids and ourselves truly appreciate all the hard work you and your family have put into providing such a special cultural experience, one we will never forget. The food was delicious! Having a tour through your farm was also a highlight with our son being able to harvest his favourite, a mangosteen.

From pick up to drop off, this experience was filled with warmth, charm, culture, great food, hospitality and generosity. Putu's house was amazing and wonderful to taste real Balinese life. It is a cooking lesson, but so much more! The market tour, the walk around her wonderful garden and home as well as the knowledge she shared will be remembered long after we return home. This is an absolute "must do" ! Suksma Putu, from Rosie and Kerry

This was the best thing we did while in Bali. We would highly recommend doing the market tour and cooking class together as gives you a wonderful insight to local culture. We also got to enjoy a delish market breakfast! The home and garden tour was incredible as we learnt more about village life and how they nurture the land and grow their own food! Having a private class was great as it gave us the opportunity to learn every step of the cooking process and ask many questions. And ofcourse the food was incredible. Thank you so much to Putu and her family for sharing their home and culture with us.

Putu has been both a wonderful host and friend. She was warm and friendly. At the market, she gave a very good rundown of the ingredients and the culture behind the food. At her food, she was gracious in the sharing and was very generous with guiding through the culinary steps.Our 5yo boy absolutely loved the experience, chasing chickens, ducks and dogs at her backyard.The food was amazing, and our having cooked it made all the more sumptuous! Highly recommended.

On our last day in Ubud, we had the joy of booking this experience and it truly became the highlight of our time in Bali. Putu and family welcomed us with warmth and kindness, opening their home to us.She guided us through the process with such patience, especially with our teens, making the entire experience feel both fun and meaningful. Every dish was prepared with the freshest ingredients, and the flavors were simply delicious.This wasn’t just a cooking class; it was a glimpse into Balinese culture, hospitality, and heart. We left not only with full stomachs, but with full hearts, and memories we will treasure forever.If you’ve never tried something like this, I can’t recommend it enough. We can’t wait to recreate these dishes back home and be reminded of this special day. Thank you again, Putu, for opening your home and sharing your world with us.

A heartwarming dive into Bali’s vibrant colours, scents, and flavours in the beautiful, inspiring home and organic garden of a lovely rice farming family just outside of Ubud.Our day began at the bustling market in Pejeng where we met the wonderful Putu to explore local produce and traditions and taste local cakes and fruits.Putu makes an excellent host - kind, patient, eloquent, knowledgeable, particularly good with children.Next we headed to Putu’s peaceful, warm and welcoming home and kitchen for a blissful day of cooking. We learnt so much from Putu as we chopped, ground and grilled. The kitchen buzzed with laughter and steam, with chickens roaming around Putu’s impressive garden.Needless to say, our feast was absolutely delicious. This was one of our favourite experiences in Bali.

Putu was so welcoming into her home - prior to the class she gave us an explanation of Bali houses and designs, where the ingredients are grown and how they live. The class was in English and easily understandable. Food was so tasty & entire experience was amazing. Strongly recommend this!

Everything was lovely, the private cooking lesson was an awesome experience! Learned a lot through talking about the Balinese experience. The campus is beautiful, the engagement was pleasant and I felt comfortable throughout!

We had the most amazing time with Putu exploring a local market and then joining her in her home to cook an amazing meal! We were picked up at our hotel and toured a local market that was off the beaten path, learning much about local fruits and veggies. But the highlight was the delicious 5 entree meal that we made with Putu. The outdoor kitchen and friendly tutelage were great, and we really appreciated that most of the ingredients came from her own gardens. No previous kitchen skill required, but everything tasted like it was made by a chef, and the recipes were all things that you could make at home. A brilliant afternoon and super highly recommended
