Bali, Indonesia: Ubud – Cooking at Casa Luna
One of the more famous restaurants in Ubud is Casa Luna. They have one of the worst web sites I’ve ever seen, but their food is something out of this world. We headed their for dinner a few hours after our arrival in Ubud, where I have to confess, I ordered a Main Entree for dinner. That wouldn’t have been such a big deal, except that I ordered a second one about 20 minutes after I finished the first. I had no idea how else I was going to be able to try everything. They served up super cocktails, and delicious fresh-baked bread, and an Avocado-Coffee milkshake that was absolutely killer.
They offer a cooking course as well, which we signed up for for the next morning. The picture below is a Hibiscus flower and a glass of iced Hibiscus tea, which was served up at our cooking course the next morning buy the pitcher, and tasted fabulous.
Below we have a few photos of a ton of fresh ingredients we used in our preparation of Nasi Goreng, Chicken Satay and Peanut Sauce (from scratch!).
I don’t recall if this photo was taken before or after we did the cooking / eating. By the looks of how happy we are, I would guess it could have been after. Note that this is probably the first and last time you will ever see Jeffery in an apron.
This was the huge pile of nasi goreng that we made, along with a big yummy bowl of peanut sauce and a pile of chicken satay. And man was it awesome.
We must confess that we returned to Casa Luna a few more times to eat. They serve up an unreal Sunday Brunch where we scored some Corn Meal Pancakes with Blueberries and Palm Sugar Syrup that Carly says is the best breakfast she’s ever had. I don’t think I’d disagree.
