Learn to cook local dishes at a cookery course in Bukit Lawang!
Good food – good mood. Do you love cooking and/or Indonesian cuisine? Then our cooking class in Bukit Lawang is just the thing for you.
The best way to experience the subtleties of Sumatran cuisine is with a local. Attending a cooking class in Bukit Lawang is therefore a great experience for many travellers. You have the opportunity to immerse yourself in Sumatra’s rich culinary tradition. These courses are not only a great opportunity to familiarise yourself with the island’s cuisine, but you can also get to know the culture and life of the locals better. A cooking class is therefore a fun and educational way to explore Sumatra’s local cuisine and better understand the culture at the same time. It is also a relaxed way to socialise with the locals.
Our cooking class is led by a local woman. Either at her home, in a warung or on a farm. We will pick you up by becak (tuktuk) and take you there directly. She will tell you a lot about the ingredients and spices of the local dishes, show you different meals and prepare them together with you. After the cooking class, you will of course eat all the delicious meals together.
The cooking class lasts around 3-4 hours. On Fridays, you will also go shopping together at the local market.
