I was greeted by Josh in a comfortable 4WD and enjoyed an excellent tour of the local markets. We were welcomed with drinks, and all the ingredients were prepared according to our dietary needs. The class was a lot of fun, with great instructors and even better food to savor after cooking.
This experience is absolutely essential. From the moment we were picked up from our hotel, we felt truly welcomed. We learned about local foods at a market and then cooked with those ingredients ourselves. Making a delicious Thai meal with fresh, local ingredients was incredible. Chef Wandee, Chef Sarah, and Sous Chef Bo guided us patiently and were excellent teachers. Our food was tasty, and the entire process was enjoyable while providing valuable insights into Thai cuisine in a laid-back atmosphere. Thank you for such a memorable highlight of our trip.
We prepared fantastic dishes with excellent guidance. It was a lot of fun, and we gained a lot of knowledge in the process.
This experience is essential when visiting Khao Lak. I've always enjoyed cooking classes while abroad, and this one was fantastic. Everything we prepared was absolutely tasty. We're grateful for such a memorable time. Love, Jarrod and Donna.
It was a fantastic experience that was both informative and enjoyable. The chefs were very encouraging and had a great sense of humor.
Our holiday in Khao Lak was made special by this fantastic cooking course. After being picked up from our hotel, we visited local markets where we learned about unique ingredients before heading to the cooking class. The welcoming team had everything prepared since we chose our menu in advance. We thoroughly enjoyed the expert guidance and tips throughout the process, and finally, we got to savor our delicious creations. This experience was not only great fun but also an excellent value, and I would highly recommend it.
This was truly one of the finest experiences during our travels. We loved immersing ourselves in the Thai culinary culture. The market visit was amazing, and the cooking was simple, tasty, and filled with joy, thanks to the wonderful team. Preuk was our main guide and he was fantastic—knowledgeable and friendly. Wandee, the talented Head Chef, provided excellent guidance. I can't recommend this experience enough.
We were picked up from our hotel and taken to a local market, where we chose the dishes we would be cooking later. The guide provided detailed explanations of the ingredients and answered our questions, displaying a friendly, professional, and knowledgeable attitude. Upon arriving at the cooking class, we felt warmly welcomed. We were served drinks and had the privilege of meeting Chef Wandee, a celebrity with her own TV series that we were unaware of. The kitchen was well-organized and equipped, encouraging us to wash our hands before we began. Clear instructions were provided, and trainee chefs assisted us, creating a supportive learning environment where everyone participated at their own level. Chef Wandee and the trainees were very encouraging, making the experience enjoyable. After cooking, we enjoyed our creations, which included two starters - deep-fried prawns wrapped in noodles and papaya salad - and two mains, red curry with chicken and prawn Pad Thai. It's good to arrive with an appetite, as a light breakfast is advisable beforehand. Overall, this was a fantastic experience that offered great value, providing not only cooking skills but also a cultural insight into Thailand. I highly recommend it.
The experience was outstanding from start to finish. We were comfortably picked up and dropped off at our hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle. Our first stop was the local markets to gather fresh ingredients. Then we headed to the cooking class, where we received personalized one-on-one attention in a wonderful setting. The outcome was a unique Thai cooking experience, with everyone enjoying a delicious four-course lunch at the end. Our host and her team were highly professional and excellent educators. It offered incredible value for the money.
This experience was incredible and truly enjoyable. We visited the market to purchase authentic handmade curry paste that smelled amazing, as well as organic raw coconut oil, which is excellent for skin. The cooking class featured delightful dishes, alternating between spring rolls and papaya salad, and then we made either panang chicken or prawns, or Tom yum soup. I was excited to learn the traditional Thai cooking methods! The little details, like crushing lemongrass and onion, significantly enhanced the flavor, making everything delicious.
