Five stars. Amazing 10 course degustation - a tour through the finest Balinese local produce in the most beautiful of locales. Congratulations to our waiter Arya and Chef Eka for a wonderful experience.

Amazing experience. Made my birthday celebrations special. We booked the cocoon at last minute thanks to Nersi! The 10-course meal was outstanding. We went for the local wine and the service was exceptional!

We were staying at the Mandapa and had enjoyed Kubu during the day for balinese cooking classes. But the dinner experience here was a whole new level. On a beautiful rainy evening, our host Narcy got a us the famous "bamboo cocoon dining pod" by the river front. It was so nice and cozy. Shimmering candle lights, tropical rain, running river and incredible 10-course tasting experience with yes - Balinese white wine (close to a sauv blanc). What an experience! Loved every bit of it. A special thanks to Savitri for managing the tasting experience to our speed.

Highly recommend dining here when in Bali, even if you are not staying at the Mandapa!
