I really enjoyed my time with Putu, and I highly recommend this experience! I heard about this from a friend, who highly recommended it to me and said that it was lovely way to spend an afternoon near Ubud with Putu and learn how to cook Balinese food. Her family member picked me up at the place I was staying near Ubud (and dropped me off later) and arrived at her family's home. She was very warm and welcoming, and gave me some fresh young coconut water and Balinese snacks to enjoy while we chatted. Putu has many years of experience cooking for her entire family and Indonesian restaurants. The cooking class was awesome! She has great English and was a great teacher! Everything was super organized and clean! All of the ingredients, including vegetables, meats, and sauces, were portioned out beforehand and she was really clear in explaining how to prepare and cook each dish, and giving me adjustments and encouragement! I enjoy cooking at home, and I gained confidence cooking some of the Balinese dishes that I had been eating in restaurants. After cooking, I enjoyed eating all of the dishes for a late lunch, and some of the versions of the dishes that we made were more delicious than what I had eaten in the local restaurants. I took a box to-go to enjoy later for dinner, and I was happy to be eating that compared to the food offered at the place I was staying. If I have the opportunity to go back to Bali, I will definitely want to take another cooking class with Putu! She said that if you cook with her more than once, she changes and customizes the menu so that you are learning new things. This is a memorable and comfortable way to spend an afternoon in Bali!

We really enjoyed the cooking class! They were so helpful during the stay. It’s a very interesting experience, if you like to learn about new cultures. And if you like to cook, you will learn some fun tips and tricks in the kitchen. For example, we’re very excited to make our own peanut sauce from now on. The host is very knowledgeable, and helpful. She speaks excellent English. He’s husband Pasta is very nice. We highly recommend adding this experience to your Bali checklist.

We did this class as part of our honeymoon and really enjoyed it. Putu’s English is excellent and she was really clear in her explanations. She’s an incredibly impressive woman who has built a business from nothing, and it was amazing to hear her story too. We were shown around her house and family temple, learning a lot about Balinese culture and religion, as well as getting to try new fruits and herbs. Most of what you cook with is grown in their own family garden, which is really nice. The food was plentiful. We made five savoury dishes - rice with sweet potato, fried tempeh, a salad, satay and corn cakes. We left incredibly full and with takeaway boxes! I don’t eat chilli but my husband did, and this was catered for, which was the big plus for us over a larger group cooking class where food is shared. She also sent us really thorough instructions via WhatsApp to recreate everything we’d made at home. Ladies - to note, you will be asked if you’re menstruating before you enter the family temple (as it’s not permitted by their religion for women to enter on their period) which I wasn’t expecting! Not an issue, but just something to be aware of. The class is expensive for Ubud and there are plenty of cheaper options, but it’s absolutely worth it.

This was hands down one of the best things we did on our Honeymoon, and one of the best cooking class we have ever done. This is so much more than a cooking class, we spent the whole day with Dewa and his family learning all about his life, his village, and life in Bali. Dewa is so incredibly kind, and knowledgable you will love spending time with him. The food we made was delicious, and healthy, and Dewa gave us a handmade journal for us to write the recipes down in. We got a full look at Dewa's village, and got to see exactly where all of our food was coming from. We loved this and cannot recommend it enough. Thank you so much Dewa for all your kindness, we loved spending time with you and your family!

Putu welcomed us into her family home on the last night of our trip to Ubud. I didn’t think our trip could get any better but she gave us a night we will never forget! We thought it was a simple cooking class but it was so much more. It felt like coming home. She gave us a brief tour of her family, garden and her home, which is STUNNING. Then to the cooking class, which was so much fun. Putu should have her own cooking show, she is funny, kind, and extremely clever. We were a group of 8 friends, she asked us our names once and never had to be reminded, she remembered them all night! She and her family could fit right in comfortably with any group of people. She really made us feel like family. And the open-air kitchen, with its open grill and wood fired stoves was charming and comfy. And the food we made… oh my goodness it was the best meal we ate in Bali!! I learned about so many new fruits, vegetables, and spices that are all apparently available in my local Asian market. I can’t wait to recreate Putu’s recipes back in the states. I could go on and on about how perfect this experience was. We will definitely be back to visit Putu and her husband Pasta when we return to Ubud. 10/10 Can not miss!!!

Words cannot describe how amazing this experience was. Putu brought us into her beautiful home and was so incredibly hospitable. The cooking class was super fun and what’s really cool is that she sends you the recipes after the class is over. Don’t think twice, just book the class! You won’t regret it! Just make sure you come hungry because there’s a lot of food! 😄

Phenomenal experience! Putu & her family created an unforgettable evening. Opening their lovely home to us. Sharing their culture & cuisine. A truly farm to table dinning experience. Do yourself a favor and book your course now!

My cooking class with Putu was an amazing cultural and culinary experience. From the pick up to drop off everything was well organized and explained. Putu made me feel like family and showed me step by step how to prepare the ingredients and create an amazing meal. Almost all of the ingredients were grown on the family farm. I especially enjoyed the tour of her family home and garden. They even provided to-go boxes to take home all of my extra food. If you are looking for an authentic cultural Balinese cooking class this is the one for you!

Do not hesitate to book this “cooking class.” Yes you will make several incredibly tasty and surprisingly simple Balinese recipes. But the experience is so much more than food based. Dewa is a kind and intelligent man who also teaches you about history, his village, their spiritual beliefs (not religion) and family home life. It is totally fascinating and presented in a generous and open manner. Dewa graciously answers all questions and allows you to photograph his absolutely beautiful home with its temple, plant life, koi and living areas. Spending time in their village home is a highlight of this amazing experience. The food we created under their guidance was delicious and we were given a notebook where Dewa told us all the ingredients and methods so we can try to duplicate these dishes at home. Absolutely book this. It was one of the very best experiences we have had while traveling and that is saying a lot.

This was an absolutely stunning experience. Visiting Petu's family home and seeing her garden and rice fields, then cooking a 5 course meal, absolutely made my holiday. I've been to Ubud 3 times and this was the least touristy thing I have experienced. I was even shown around the family temple. Petu provided great cooking instructions and guided me through every dish. Her niece helped do prep and cleaning etc so everything was very organised and we made excellent time. I can't recommend this enough. The food was so good and recipes are provided via whatsapp at the end of the experience. There is so much food. Make sure you go hungry! And you will be given take away leftovers if you're keen.

This was an amazing cooking class with Putu! She is an amazing host and great at taking the class creating a relaxed environment! The food was so tasty and making five dishes was great as we got to taste a full range of flavours! We left feeling very full! Highly recommend!

This was such a fun experience for our group of 7 friends! We all worked together chopping, mixing, frying, laughing and drinking beer! We all took turns at the grill and even the vegetarians could not resist trying the chicken satay! Highly recommend this as a last meal to round out your Bali trip. Food we delicious with ingredients from the garden! Corn fritters and sambal matah were my favorite! Would definitely go back! Thanks Putu and Pasta!

This was the highlight of our trip. Putu made us feel like family even though we were so far away from home. The recipes are something I will take home with me and make for my own family. It was such an amazing experience learning Balinese culture through their delicious food! I would recommend this to anyone in Ubud. They even provided transportation!

visiting places of animals and natural foods, Visitors enjoy more places on the beach, jozani national park, serengeti and national park and so on.

Putu and her family were so amazing! It was great to feel so welcomed in her home. There were 7 of us in total and the class felt so easy to follow despite being a larger group. Putu was gracious, patient and so accommodating. This was especially necessary in our diverse group! I’m grateful to Putu for fully immersing us in Balinese culture and cuisine. This was the highlight of my trip and I cannot wait to return to Bali, just to experience this again! 10/10, 5 stars, 100, A+ We love you Putu and Pasta! -Will D.
