Expert Tips

Food Writer · Trained Cook · Hungry Traveler

" Enjoy traveling by tuk tuk to a small local market to buy Thai ingredients. Back at the school, you will be rewarded with a glass of iced lemon tea before getting into your apron. "

What I liked: The details that Mae gave us about each ingredient and each dish. It's a good class for people who want to cook the dishes again once they get home. The school is near Khaosan road, the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew. Perfect to walk and explore the area after your cooking class.

What to know: The school is hidden between two streets and can be hard to find, but ask a local and they will happily show you.

Good for: There are many details and secret techniques in Thai food, which can be the key to making a Thai dish successfully. The structure and focus of the class makes it good for those who want to come out with a good grasp of the cuisine.

Best way to get there: Go to Ratchathewi BTS station and the get on a motorbike or tuk tuk that should cost you 100 baht to Khaosan.

"Great!"

Very nice teacher. Market was great.

"Brilliant cookery class"

Market trip was fascinating. Learnt so much about the local food. Then back at the venue we cooked 4 lovely dishes. Great demo each time by Mai before the 6 of us then worked at our own station to reproduce the dish. Lots of help available if we needed it. Best bit was at the end when we sat and enjoyed the fruits of our labor. Fab meal! Best Thai food I have tasted!!! Recommend this course 100%!

"Excellent!"

Shopping the market was a great experience. Loved the cooking classes!

"Amazing lesson"

It was amazing experience to visit local market, buy products which we needed and see what it looks like. Small group (6 persons) a lot of good. We prepare 4 Disney, and we couldn’t eat it. Course instructor had great energy and her English was also great. Only one thing to improve - too hot in the kitchen.

"Excellent!"

Friendly, enjoyable and very informative.
