“Selamat Makan” isn't a slogan for us — it's what the family says before you eat at their table.

Happy Local Adventure is based in Medahan, a village in Gianyar where several families still farm rice using the centuries-old Subak irrigation system and cook over wood-fired stoves. We open the same doors we walk through every day.
