What a fantastic experience. This was our first cooking class and we’re already planning our next cooking adventure with Sticky Rice. Yukio is an excellent instructor. The menu was well planned. We had a lot of fun and learned so much. Thank you Yukiko and Daniel for all your hard work.

THANK YOU PEEL STREET
Despite the 40 degree heat our degustation Dinner with Peel Street Chef Jordan Theodoros was such a great night and we thank everyone for coming.
For these events we transform our dining room into an intimate restaurant setting for 30 people and each dish then becomes a cooking demonstration class while you sit back and watch and sip your matching wines. We invited Ben Warren from Som wine merchants to educate us on the best wines to match the food and Jordan’s food once again spoke volumes about his talent.
Our next dinner event is in 3 weeks with Africola Chef Duncan Welgemoed and Hentley Farm wines and we can’t wait to do it all again! Here are some pics of last night.
We have a 2 night break just waiting for you in our Bali Villa and it could be yours for free.
Check back into our Facebook page this Friday 22nd Nov and enter our pre Christmas competition and you could be spending a much needed 2 night break in our very own Bali Villa.
Here are some great ideas for your stay.
Spend the day exploring part of the scenic Heysen trail or hike Mount George both of which are on our doorstop, then come home to the villa and have a long soak in our Balinese tub.
Visit a few of the 50 cellar doors in the region and bring home some cheese and wine to enjoy under the stars in your very own ambient lit Bali Hut.
Take a 15 min drive to the historic township of Hahndorf where you can enjoy a relaxing afternoon strolling through the main streets and then picking your own strawberries at Beerenberg Farm. Plan a picnic high tea for the afternoon at the Mount Lofty Botanic gardens 5 mins from the Bali Villa. Pick up a few gourmet foods along the way and come home to enjoy your top of the range kitchen.
Take a short walk to Stirling and have a coffee and chocolate treat at Red Cacao Chocolatier. Bring some home to enjoy while lounging in front of the TV on the enormous Balinese day bed.
Plan lunch with friends at the Mount Lofty Ranges Vineyard or the The Lane Vineyard for stunning vistas and award winning cuisine. Invite your friends back to the Villa for teas, coffee and chat.
Book a private master class for two with us at the cooking school and enjoy having expert tuition from a professional chef all to yourselves. We offer a 3 course lunch class and you chose the menu! Enjoy the matching wines without the need to drive home!
Pamper yourself at Cocos Hair and Day Spa in Stirling or book a private couples massage in the Villa. We can also organise Champagne and chocs or a gourmet platter to accompany this!
Head out for breakfast at FRED Eatery in neighboring Aldgate and on the way back pop into Aptos Cruz Galleries and gIft shop. Hire some bikes for the afternoon and head out to Woodside and meander the easy Amy Gillet Bikeway which takes you through stunning counrtyside scenery. For the braver adventurer go downhill mountain biking through the Mount Lofty ranges with Will Ride tours!
Or for even more ideas, golfing, wildlife, zoos, markets and more head over to our Adventure in the Hills page of our website.
Details will be posted Friday 22nd Nov
