Janet Neefe has lived in Bali since the 80s. "I met my (Balinese) husband my second day here," she tells those of us assembled in her gorgeous cooking studio, set amid palm trees and frangiapani. I bet her garden is killer. Everything else about her is. She's written a book about her experiences, heads up the Ubud Writer's Festival, and runs the Casa Luna restuarant. As she stands and extols the virtues of island cooking, her Balinese helpers chop and cook and generally keep things rolling. It's a bizarre dance, one that leaves me feeling a little queasy. The food is yummy, but I couldn't reproduce it.

Cooking Class -- Casa Luna
