Immerse yourself in the rich culinary heritage of Bali with Tanah Gajah's new Balinese Kitchen Culture experience. Learn to prepare dishes like Balinese Sate Lilit (fish satay), the spicy condiment Sambal Matah, and a local dessert Dadar Gulung (coconut pancakes).
Guests will learn about purification rituals, including a blessing with holy water to wash away negative energy; proper clothing and proper plating. Making a specific type of canang saiban, an offering that is prepared after cooking a meal, is also part of the two-hour workshop. Through conversation and hands-on experience guests will learn the importance of these gifts that are bestowed upon the gods and how this practice nurtures a sense of gratitude and devotion within daily life. At the end of the session, guests may enjoy the fruits of their hard work overlooking a soothing view of the swan pond.
The experience is offered daily and is available in two-time slots:
11:00 am - 13:00 pm
13:00 pm - 15:00 pm
*Green rice paddy view is not guaranteed as rice paddies follow a natural growth cycle
