Food, Culture and Conversations

Ubud Food Festival

May 27 – 31

If you’re a foodie, this one is for you. One of the most anticipated Bali events in May, the Ubud Food Festival brings together renowned chefs, food lovers and culinary creatives from around the world. With this year’s theme being Farmers: Guadians of Land & Sea, this four-day festival showcases Indonesia’s rich flavors through masterclasses, food markets and thought-provoking conversations.

Tumpek Uduh

May 23

If last month’s Tumpek Landep is about blessing metal objects, Tumpek Uduh is a ceremony dedicated to honoring trees and plants, a unique highlight among Balinese cultural events. As part of the Balinese Tri Hita Karana philosophy, locals decorate gardens, rice fields and greenery with offerings. Guests at Risata Bali Resort & Spa can witness this tradition throughout our luscious hotel garden.

Vesak Day

May 31

Celebrated across Indonesia, Vesak Day is a sacred Buddhist holiday that commemorates the birth, enlightenment and passing of the Buddha. In Bali, you’ll witness an intersection of cultures — local Balinese nuances woven into Buddhist traditions. Guests planning to visit temples are advised to dress appropriately and observe the festivities respectfully.

Have a Taste of Indonesian Flavors

For those inspired by the flavors of the Ubud Food Festival but prefer to stay in at Risata Bali Resort & Spa Kuta, our restaurant offers a curated taste of Indonesia’s most beloved dishes — no long drive required! Here, you can have a taste of staples like Nasi Goreng and Mie Goreng, two classic comfort dishes loved by many Indonesians. The gentle sweetness characteristic of Javanese cuisine, layered with a subtle smokiness from the rich soy sauce and fragrant spices — every bite offers a glimpse into Indonesia’s culinary heritage. 

For a heartier, more traditional pairing, savor a warm bowl of Soto Ayam alongside perfectly grilled Sate Ayam, served with fragrant rice and savory accompaniments. Soto Ayam, a deeply aromatic, turmeric-based chicken soup, serves a contrasting flavor to Sate Ayam, a sweeter dish consisting of chicken skewers drenched in peanut sauce. This classic combination offers deeper connection to Indonesia’s culinary heritage, bringing together comforting textures and bold, aromatic flavors. 

It’s a delicious way to experience authentic Indonesian cuisine in Kuta, whether you’re arriving from the airport or unwinding after a day by the beach.
