As part of its ongoing Sapta Rasa campaign, which is themed "Story in the Table," ARYADUTA Bali hosted a special CSR event on July 2, 2025. The event welcomed 20 children and teachers from the Pradnyagama Foundation for their first table manners class. This initiative aimed to provide children with a new and meaningful dining experience, while emphasizing the idea that every shared meal tells a valuable story.
We believe that every table holds a story, not just of flavors, but also of joy, learning, and connection. Through this CSR initiative, ARYADUTA Bali opened its doors to the children and teachers of the Pradnyagama Foundation, a respected psychology service center that supports children with special talents by providing psychological consultations, counseling, and education. With its main center in Denpasar and branches in nine cities across Bali and one in Mataram, the foundation nurtures the minds and futures of many young individuals.
For most of these children, it was their first experience in a formal dining setting. The table manners class introduced them to a three-course set menu. They started with an amuse-bouche of dinner rolls and butter, followed by creamy potato and carrot soup with croutons. The main course was chicken tenders with fries and salad. The meal concluded with colorful rainbow pudding topped with vanilla fla.
I Komang Agus Wijaya Kusuma, Aryaduta Bali’s F&B Outlet Manager, led the class and guided the children through proper dining etiquette in a fun and engaging way, making the learning experience educational and memorable.
RM Rendy Prapanca, General Manager of ARYADUTA Bali, began the event with a warm welcome and encouraged the children to always uphold good manners, even during meals. "Respecting others at the table is as important as enjoying the food," he said.
Gladys Monica Solang, the Marketing and Communications Manager, also delivered an inspiring message. "Food is not only about flavor — it's also about the stories we share, the laughter we create, and the moments we remember. Beautiful things happen around the table, and today, we're writing a new story together.”
Ni Made Pradnya Amadeandra Kusuma, M.Psi., Psikolog, Chairwoman of the Pradnyagama Foundation, expressed her gratitude. "This is our first time being invited by a hotel for a table manners experience. The children are thrilled, and we hope this is the first of many impactful collaborations."
The table manners session wasn’t just about dining; it was about dignity, inclusion, and creating meaningful stories. As ARYADUTA Bali continues its Sapta Rasa journey, this event reaffirms our belief that every table holds a story worth sharing.
