If you are a fan of Netflix’ Chef’s Table, you may have heard about this place. Room4Dessert is the brainchild of Chef Will Goldfarb and has seen a surge in popularity due to his episode on the Netflix series. In a lot of ways this place a mix between your classic Michelin starred restaurant, and a casual island eatery. While the restaurant is beautifully laid out, with expensive looking fixtures and tableware, there is…
One of the things I try to do in every country I visit is a traditional cooking class. I didn’t go to culinary school, but I have done hundreds of hours of classes from chefs all over the world. To me, this is one of the best ways to learn a country or region’s culture. I look forward to finding awesome and unique cooking classes everywhere I go. Most recently I found a…
We were first inspired to stay at Song Broek Jungle Resort because of their fantastic pool. It is a bit like a discount version of the famous Hanging Gardens of Bali, and as we weren’t trying to spend $500+ a night, this place worked out perfectly.

The most incredible places nature has created in the middle of the island are what you definitely need to see if…
It was our second week in Bali and we made it to Ubud. Since we didn’t want to pay for a fancy place but still wished to stay somewhere cute, Cody rented a room at Rumah Erwin (Gekko poolgarden studio), a nice guest house 10 minutes walk to the main street. On the photos this place looked small but clean, and it had a pool; What else do you need in Bali. And on…
