Culinary Journey in Bali
What food/drinks are included?
Included in the price are 3 daily meals plus water and tea – in Amed we smalls have morning smoothies. However, on free days and on trips, food & drinks is at your own disposal. That way, on those days, you can eat exactly what you like.
All resorts offer fresh from the market or their own farm local ingredients, cooked the Balinese or Indonesian way.
Nutrition is very important to us and we consider proper nutrition a very big part of yoga. We make sure that all food is fresh from the market, of highest quality, washed with the best water and preferably organic.
We also see this training as a culinary journey with a focus on “new experiences” (introducing Indonesian and Balinese specialties & ingredients, delicacies that you may not yet know, superfoods, etc..).
We only use olive or coconut oil, sea salt from Amed and organize extra superfoods like raw Balinese cocoa, Chia seeds, etc..
The BCCE offers local ingredients straight from their farm into the table cooked by an excellent Balinese Chef . It’s simply delicious and nutritious. They are famous for their kitchen. 3 times a day plus an afternoon tea.

Can I drink the tab water?
You can actually drink the tab water in Batu Karu – but that is the only place I bali that I know!
Otherwise No!! Only bottled or filtered water is drinkable. Please bring your own re-useable non-plastic drinking bottle!
Please fill up your bottle constantly with the water supplied and drink A LOT, because we sweat even more in the tropics! Dehydration risk.
If you experience dehydration we suggest drinking coconut water and at times add Oralit (small sachets for rehydration) to your water and sip it slowly.
