Experience
Crafted exclusively for one couple per day, this extraordinary dining experience will take you to the ancient pre-Hindu era village of Tenganan in East Bali, home of the indigenous Bali Aga who have retained their unique culture and customs over the centuries. Meet Pak Gede, one of the village residents, as he welcomes you into his high-walled garden compound and well-preserved home. At its heart, you will find the bale sekenem, an open-air roofed platform with six massive pillars made from ulin wood, and traditionally used for weddings and festive celebrations in the Balinese calendar.
Enjoy an authentic Bali Aga dining experience seated at a low dining table set in the bale, complete with earthen tableware and traditional oil lamps. In the kitchen next to the bale, Pak Gede’s wife will prepare traditional delicacies on a flaming coconut husk fire pit, assisted by a butler and chef from Alila Manggis. Savor a homemade Balinese family meal, including soup, a selection of five family-style dishes, and dessert. Wine and champagne pairings, along with a musician serenading you by rindik, a traditional bamboo instrument, completes the one-of-a-kind dining experience.
