2011 March - Bali Spices & Spas retreat
About this blog
A wonderful mix of 5 days and 4 nights of cuisine and pampering. We learnt the delights of authentic Balinese style cooking in the village style kitchen. In the mornings, walked to the gardens and surrounding farms to gather some ingredients and then try our hand at the mortar and pestle to grind the spices. Our favourites include cucumber and coconut salad, lemongrass sambal, chicken coconut satay, spicy steamed fish, black rice pudding. Every dish was served on a banana leaf, which makes everything look so much more delicious. Afternoons were spent at the favourite spa in Ubud and there some time for shopping at the art inspired markets and stores in Ubud. On the last night was a celebration of our stay by lighting the gardens with candles. Went home feeling refreshed and relaxed and show off my new cooking skills!
