Signature Dining Experiences

The Beach Dinner features two candlelit tables set on the black-sand beach, each with its own private chef grilling dishes over an open flame. After the meal, a private balé awaits beside a bonfire, where guests can enjoy the warmth of the fire and the tide's rhythm.

The Rijsttafel Dinner includes ten vegetarian, seafood, and meat dishes served with rice, finished with a trio of sorbets. This traditional Indonesian dining experience can be enjoyed at Sandikala or in the privacy of a guest pavilion.

Batu Jati offers sunset drinks from a rock platform overlooking the Lombok Strait and the resort's black-sand beach. Locally crafted cocktails are accompanied by a selection of canapés as the sky changes color.

Culinary Experiences and Activities

The Cooking Class is a hands-on experience with Amankila's Balinese sous chef. Guests pick fresh herbs and vegetables from the resort's garden before being guided through the step-by-step preparation of a multi-course meal.

The Megibung Dinner gathers guests for an East Balinese tradition centered on Nasi Tumpeng—a cone-shaped rice offering symbolizing Mount Agung and the island's sacred abundance, surrounded by a vibrant shared platter.

Traditional Afternoon Tea is served daily at The Bar, featuring Balinese coffee and teas with handmade treats crafted by mothers from a nearby village, offering home-style indulgence with local connection.
