Balinese Cooking Class & Market Tour in Seminyak

Theodore was delightful. He made the class very enjoyable.

Informative, entertaining, delicious, and overall well-presented and delivered. Had a fantastic time and thoroughly enjoyed the day.

Such a fantastic cooking class from the visit to the market to learning all the different dishes. The class was so well organised and being in groups of 6 meant lots of hands on work. The food was delicious!

We were picked up from our hotel and on way picked up four more people . One of them said there were over 50 people doing the course . We nearly pulled out there and then . So glad we didn’t as it was an excellent cooking school and can easily cater for that number as they break down the groups to much smaller and we only had the 6 of us who arrived together . We cooked 9 dishes , did a wonderful market tour learning lots about Balinese ingredients and sat down to lunch with all the food we had cooked . Each group had their own station and chef with very efficient helpers in the background . We came away with a wonderful memories, a cookbook and a certificate .

Tommy, the chef, made it a great time. Lots of hands on and delicious food to eat at the end! Tommy was gracious enough to email a recipe of the dish we were served before starting. All in all a really fun experience.

Good range of dishes, great humour from the instructor, overall had a really great time

Very interesting and had a great time

Great group of people, enjoyed every part of it including attending the market.

I had a great time. Tommy, our chef, was entertaining and knowledgeable. The class was well organised. The venue was great.

He a great time at this class. It was nice to spend a long while there and the food we cook was delicious. The staff and teachers were all very nice.

What a great time. Learnt heaps and had fun doing it. My friend was very reluctant to go but she thoroughly enjoyed it. Tommy made a great host and all the staff were friendly and accommodating.

The cooking class was absolutely amazing. I had the pleasure to have Tommy as my chef. He is a very entertaining guy who speaks fluent English. His energy radiated of the class. It was a very packed schedule with lots of dishes and they are explained very well. The only negative point is that something went wrong with my booking and they didn't pick me up. I joint because of this halfway during the market tour. Even this small negative point wouldn't down rate my experience.

We had a great day at the cooking class. Our chef/cook was fun and made the day very enjoyable. We learnt about a dozen dishes and got a recipe book at the end to take with us. We all sat together and tried the food, and there was heaps to go around. Also the hosts took many photos throughout the session then sent them to us via WhatsApp so we had memories of the great day. I thought it was very good value and would do it again if I was looking for something to do. The only hitch we had was we were forgotten to be picked up from our hotel in Canggu to the Seminyak class but that was quickly sorted out when the host sent a taxi to us to pick us up. So if you're thinking about a cooking class I wouldn't hesitate to do this one.

The class at Warung Nia was excellent! It was fun, informative and everyone had a chance to cook and prepare the food and what a delicious feast it was! Chef Komang was a great guide and teacher and we learned a lot throughout the class. Also had the best group on our table with lots of laughs and good chat. Would do this again! Highly recommend to everyone who goes to Seminyak/Bali

5h course in which we prepared a lot of tasty dishes which we got to try all together at the end of classes. Top quality in all details.

The class was great! “The chef” absolutely top notch. Had a wonderful experience

Impressive number of recipes covered. Very well run and achieved a lot in the short time. Food yummy assuming you don’t mind some chilli. My 10 year old joined in and was made feel very welcome. Highly recommend to anyone and not too hot as in shade with fans.

I was one of a group of 6 ladies. We enjoyed everything about the the cooking class. Tommy, the staff, the setting... And end result was fantastic. Who wouldn't love great food and laughs with your closest friends. Highly recommended.

We started with a market tour. Learnt a bit of balinese culture. Tommy, the chef and tour guide was awesome. He was funny and informative. He kept the class entertaining. We made 12 course dishes. Every food was so delicious. We were so full in the end. Wish we could eat more!

This cooking class was an amazing experience. I joined the class with a friend, and we enjoyed it very much. I would recommend this class to everyone who is interested in an introduction in the Indonesian kitchen. Although we could not visit the market due to the heavy rain, we learned to make many dishes in an interactive way, and afterwards were able to try them all. We had a great cooking instructor who made the class extra fun. This was my first class via Cookly and will definitely book again.

Was a terrific class, very engaging and Tommy kept the group laughing and learning

Ease with pick up. Educational and fun host / chef in Komang. Tasty food and recipes to take away. Interactive & inclusive session with alternatives for me who is gluten free.

Thoroughly enjoyed our day cooking with Tommy and learning a lot about Balinese cuisine , culture and customs We were picked up from our hotel which made the whole experience easy Would definitely recommend

We booked this class because of the reviews, and we weren't disappointed. The experience of Tommy, the owner and chef, was incredible. He had us engaged from the time we met him until the end. The traditional Balinese menu was amazing to eat at the end, made by the class. I would recommend this class to anyone.

It was really nice participating in the cooking with small groups. The hosts had great English and knife skills and made sure to include everyone in the cooking. The host was sure to explain all the ingredients their history and compare the dishes to other cooking styles, including Javanese and Thai. It was a really enjoyable time with more food than we could ever finish! I would highly recommend the class and would take it again!

It was great fun, informative and the food was amazing! So cool that we get our own cooking book!

the chef was funny the products were top quality the place was clean and pleasant, I'm not a great cook but I loved the experience and I liked that everyone left with their little recipe book

I would highly recommend this cooking class. We had a great morning at Warung Nia from 8am till 1.30pm. The cooking class was so much fun, all the steps were clear what to do and of course a lot of tasting. After all the cooking it was time to enjoy the food together. We had so much food and it was so nice! Definitely worth the money.

What a great class!! Jimmy’s market tour was informative with plenty of jokes and coffee recommendations. Tommy’s cooking demonstrations were so much fun, the menu highlighted traditional delicious food and plenty of laughs to go around! All finished with such an amazing lunch! A great day out and great value for money!!

great intro into Balinese cooking, even for beginners! the market tour showed us the ingredients that are regularly used in Balinese cuisine as well as alternatives if they are not available at home. the menu was well laid out. we learned basic techniques and preparation of ingredients for common food items like nasi goreng/mie goreng, satay, and papaya salad. the instructor was very knowledgeable and even if we were in a fairly large class (about 24 students) made sure it was fun and interactive learning experience for everyone. all in all a much recommended experience for anyone wanting to learn about Balinese cooking, or just wanting to try something new.

It was a fun activity for me and my fiancé! Our tour through the market was great to get to know many local ingredients. Our chef explained the different fruits and veggies we were going to use perfectly with comparing the flavours to typical things at home (even though we came from 6 different continents!). All together we prepared 9 dishes with help from the kitchen staff, to speed up the process and in the end we had a delicious meal! We even got a little cook book and pictures at the end. Thanks for making it a great experience!

We had a great trip around the local food market learning about Balinese cooking ingredients. Our guide was knowledgeable, answered our questions, and above all had a great sense of humour. We returned to the restaurant and participated in an engaging cookery session, producing many local dishes. We met some other travellers during the class and at the end of the session shared an absolute feast for lunch, everything had been cooked by us. Two people in our group were vegetarian and the chef adapted some of the recipes to suit our dietary requirements. Definitely a great way to spend a morning if you love food!!

I thoroughly enjoyed the class. Fun entertaining and delicious. I would recommend any one going to Bali to participate.

Really enjoyed the class! The teacher of the class was really friendly and a lot of fun. Was great learning about Indonesian food also which we knew nothing about. Would definitely recommend!

Tomy the chef was amazing !! We had a good time with him , I was alone but have made good friends right away with everyone! The food was excellent, and the quality of course impressive!!! I recommend it to everyone!!!

Our cooking class is fun, good explanation and if u had question the cook take time. Good atmosphere and jokes as well. The market tour is good with tasting some fruit and see spices such as Laos. Our multi culti group (Australia, Japan, Philipinnes, Canada, Chech Republic and the Netherlands). Most like dishes for me are papayasalad and sweet corn snack. All of us take part of preparation of dishes. Perfect to learn Balinese kitchen. Recommended!

Enjoyed the experience and learnt great tips. Food was delicious and staff were friendly and helpful

Great class we had 12 people separated into 2 groups. That was a comfortable size. We all cut ingredients and shared the preparation. So much food left over. I highly recommend taking a pen to make notes on the recipes.

The chefs were very humorous and spoke good English. The visit to the traditional food market was a good addition to the cooking. The food we made/ate was amazing...maybe also because of the hours we put into making it🙂 The chefs also told us about many things to think about while cooking in general as well.

A professional and fun cooking class, with a large variety of meals and patient and friendly chefs.

We really enjoyed the class!

We started with a market tour where we looked and tasted/smelled at lots of different fruits and vegetables and given info on cooking and suitable replacements if we couldn’t find things back home Then went back to the restaurant to prepare and cook many dishes. The chef was really knowledgable, gave us loads of tips and made the day fun. The food was delicious and can’t wait to try cooking some more when I get home

Great day at this cooking class Toured markets first and was given great explanation of all ingredients we were to use. The actual cooking was great fun and very interesting Huge lunch afterwards enjoying the fruits of our labour Highly recommend

The tour started with 7 of us at the market, it was a nice numbee of people and everyone could hear and be included. When we arrived at the cooking class destination there were two large groups operating at the same time, large groups that consisted of 36, they tried their hardest to ensure everyone had a go but it was too big which made the class go for longer. They were very accomodating to dietary needs, however they were completed online with the booking and then made to explain and justify the dietary needs in front of the entire group being probed with questions of why.

Would be great if you could individually cook, instead of group cooking.

For this price at leas one drink for the lunch should be included...

Instructor was fun and funny and kept everything interesting. Anyone would enjoy it!!

The class was well planned and prepared. It was fun and informative and I definitely learned new things about cooking. The Chef was polite, good natured, encouraging and helpful. I felt it was money well spent

We had a really great time with a super bunch of people from all over the world. Chef was very knowledgeable and our tour to the market gave us a great insight into the local culture. It was a great introduction into the basics of Indonesian cooking. We learned a lot, laughed a lot and had a lot of fun. We highly recommend this class.

Great food and a lot of fun. I would highly recommend the Nia Cooking Class for everyone from beginners to food enthusiasts and experienced cooks. If you don't get a chance to do the cooking class, definitely find time to go have a meal at Warung Nia. We started at the local markets where our guide/chef explained local Indonesian ingredients and we tried some local fruits. Our guide/chef offered suggestions for alternatives if not available in our home country and some products OK to take back through immigration. After the markets we had a refreshing lemon ice tea and sweet dumplings in a sweet caramel-like sauce with coconut cream for morning tea. We then started out cooking class with the owner of cooking school. We each got a printed recipe book, so we could take notes on the pages. The chef was knowledgeable, easy to understand, funny and made us all feel very relaxed. During the cooking class there were parts everyone participated in and parts only some people did the cooking and others watched. The chef made sure everyone got a few turns to cook. It worked well because it gave you some time to take notes, have a drink, take photos and sit down for a bit. The chef asked if anyone had any special dietary requirements and was very careful to take these into consideration. At the end we sat down to a feast of amazing foods, some we had cooked and some extras to try. There was much more than we could eat. We were each given a certificate of participation. At the end I forgot to take home my recipes so I emailed the cooking school and they very kindly sent me a copy by email.
