HI! WE ARE
LEMBONGAN COOKING
A cooking class is a fun way to learn how to prepare different dishes with guidance from a chef. Participants get hands-on experience with ingredients, recipes, and cooking techniques. It’s great for beginners or anyone wanting to improve their skills and enjoy delicious food.
OUR STORY
In Indonesia, cooking is more than food — it’s family, tradition, and community. Recipes are passed down through generations. Meals are often eaten together on banana leaves or around low tables, especially during celebrations or religious events.
Nestled between Bali and the open sea, Lembongan Island breathes a slower rhythm. Here, where turquoise waters kiss white sands, Chef Puspa K Moechtar has quietly built a reputation—not just for food, but for preserving a heritage.
Puspa didn't come to the island for fame. She came for flavor. Born in Java and raised in a family where recipes were passed down like heirlooms, she learned the value of balance—sweet and spicy, soft and bold. After years working in bustling city kitchens, she chose the quiet soul of Lembongan to bring tradition back to the table.
In her open-air kitchen, the sizzle of sambal meets the perfume of kemangi leaves. Her rendang simmers for hours, infused with nutmeg, galangal, and stories. Tourists come for a taste of Indonesia, but leave with something deeper.
