Endah, a mother of two, turned her home kitchen into Pawon Bedhog, a warm and inviting cooking class where travelers experience the richness of Yogyakarta local family life. Supported by her husband, Aput, and their daughters, Langlang and Lekha, Endah offers more than just recipes. Guests are welcomed into an intimate, lived-in space where each dish holds layers of tradition, cultural meaning, and lived experience. Through moments of teaching, laughter, and shared meals, Pawon Bedhog offers more than a cooking class—it’s a window into the heart of Indonesian family life.

Director Statement

A kitchen is more than a place to cook—it’s where stories, culture, and lived experiences come together. Pawon Bedhog is not just a cooking class; it’s a vessel for sharing tradition, values, and everyday life through food.

Endah offers a warm, intimate experience—not with modern techniques, but with care, closeness, and cultural depth. At Pawon Bedhog, guests don’t simply learn to cook; they begin to understand the meaning behind each ingredient and the stories that flavor every dish.

Through this film, I hope to capture the quiet intimacy of the kitchen—the sizzle of oil, the aroma of fresh spices, and the gentle laughter that rises between stirring and serving. A reminder that food is more than taste—it’s a thread that ties us together, one story at a time.
