Considered by some as a modern day Buddha, Dewa is a host who gives you an immersive understanding of the food and culture of Bali. Visit Dewa's traditional Balinese family compound consisting of several open pavilions around a central courtyard. Here, nestled in a village in the terraced foothills of Bali that is home to Dewa and his extended family, is where you will enjoy a meaningful Balinese food experience. Begin with a garden tour and discover exotic Balinese fruits, herbs and spices such as galangal, cacao and nutmeg and learn about their medicinal properties. Then, join Dewa's wife in their open kitchen and learn to cook authentic, home-cooked Balinese dishes over a traditional wood-fired stove. Learn to cook dishes such as pepes Ikan (grilled tuna in banana leaves), bumbu kuning (chicken in a fresh turmeric and coconut milk sauce), and bregedel (handground corn fritters). Enjoy the delicious meal you helped prepare while experiencing the life of a local family in the lush greenery of their compound walls. This is a unique opportunity to get a glimpse of authentic Balinese culture and cuisine with truly special hosts. Leave with family recipes and lifelong memories.
