In our fragrant organic garden, you'll find the lively basil plant, a fresh and aromatic herb that is a true staple of Balinese culinary. While many know basil from Italian dishes, here in Bali, we use it to add a fresh, peppery note to savory soups, salads, and curries. Its vibrant green leaves and distinct scent are a great way to introduce your family to the rich world of local herbs and spices.

Basil, or Ocimum basilicum, is more than just a flavor enhancer; it's also packed with vitamins and antioxidants, making it a great food for promoting your family's overall well-being. At our resort, we believe in a true farm-to-table philosophy, and our chefs use freshly picked basil to create wholesome and authentic dishes. Learning about and tasting these fresh leaves is a simple yet authentic way to create a memorable culinary moment during your Ubud family vacation.
