I had an amazing experience at the Batik workshop with Leksa Ganesha! Everything was incredibly well organized, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming from the moment I arrived. The people were kind, helpful, and made the whole process enjoyable—even for beginners. They give you all the time you need. I learned a lot and had a great time being creative. The food prepared in the cooking class was delicious and served in the cute coffee shop attached. Highly recommended!

At the end of our amazing afternoon spent in the lovely garden and the lovely kitchen, I asked to Wayan, our guide of the day, what’s the meaning of Anandinii, and he said “happiness”. It perfectly described our experience, we loved everything from the beginning until the end. All has been so genuine, ingredients and smiles, that we can just be greatful to meet these passionate girls and boys who tirelessly helped us meeting more Balinese culture at its most inner heart. Terima kasih to all of them

Perfect organisation - we had a small group, cooking in pairs. First it was a tour around local market, where the guide explained some ingredients, and bought some fruit for us. The class itself took place in the farm - beautiful and quiet place. All ingredients were preprepared, fresh and tasty. We were given instructions and enjoyed the process of cooking with degustation. Great experience!
