百年建築的溫馨料理 - 傳統市場導覽+經典泰式料理(可中文授課)

From the bustling streets of Bangkok, nestled within a quaint and beautifully preserved 100-year-old traditional Thai house, my culinary journey at Cookly was nothing short of magical. The charm of the venue is undeniable, instantly setting the stage for an authentic Thai cooking experience. The class was a blend of culture, cooking, and camaraderie, designed for anyone with a passion for food, from complete beginners to more seasoned cooks looking to add Thai dishes to their repertoire. The highlight for me, aside from the mouth-watering dishes we prepared, was the sheer joy of sharing this experience with other couples, including my date. There’s something about cooking together that creates an unforgettable bond, and Cookly certainly fosters this beautifully. Our adventure began with a visit to a local fresh market. Our instructor was a fountain of knowledge, not just about the how, but also the why of choosing the right ingredients. This market tour was more than just a shopping trip; it was an insightful cultural immersion, peppered with tips on what to select and what to avoid to replicate the authenticity of Thai flavors at home. Back in the serene ambiance of the Thai house, we donned our aprons and got to work. The dishes we learned - Phad Thai Chicken, the ever-zesty Tom Yum, and the sweet indulgence of Mango with Sticky Rice - were taught with patient guidance and clear, easy-to-follow instructions. Each recipe was a door to understanding the delicate balance of Thai cuisine, and our instructor ensured everyone was engaged and enjoying the process. The class was conducted in a relaxed yet organized manner, allowing us to savor each step of cooking, without feeling rushed. Laughter was as much a part of the process as the cooking itself, making the class not just educational but genuinely fun. The cherry on top was the recipe book provided to us at the end. Not just a collection of recipes, it included beautiful photos of the dishes we created, serving as both a souvenir and a practical guide for when we try these recipes at home. In conclusion, whether you’re a curious tourist, a budding chef, or simply a food lover seeking a fun day out, Cookly’s Thai cooking class is a treat for the senses. It was an experience that exceeded my expectations, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to dip their toes into the rich waters of Thai cuisine.
