The Real Bali: An Exclusive Insider’s Journey through Intaran Market.
Description
Step into the heart of local life at Pasar Intaran—a hidden gem virtually unknown to foreigners. While the tourist markets of Sanur and Denpasar sell souvenirs, Intaran sells soul.
Guided by Chef Glenn, you’ll navigate the vibrant Market Street and the bustling main warehouse. This is where the real Bali happens: from the scent of fresh-grilled Sate Lilit and handmade Balinese offerings to the vibrant colors of tropical fruits and local farmer’s produce.
After our market discovery, we return to the sanctuary of Red Chili Bali for a hands-on cooking session and a chance to explore Widya’s Treasure Trove—a curated shop of unique Balinese finds.
