Pejeng Kangin Village is home to some of Bali's most respected culinary traditions, with cooking techniques dating back to the 14th century Majapahit Empire. Local legend says the secret spice blends used here were originally crafted for Balinese royalty and have been guarded carefully within family lines for centuries.
