Top Thailand Cooking Classes - page 4

Best experience in Bangkok. Really nervous since so many options but happy with our choice! We booked a morning tour to see the market (only available in the mornings) and chose Tingly Thai because we would get to each individually cook some of our favorite traditional dishes like tom yum soup, pad Thai, green curry and mango sticky rice. The recipes were delicious and our favorite including some expensive Thai dinners we had. CHo was our guide and she was hilarious! She included everyone and made everyone feel special. I appreciated that she went around and took group photos of everyone at certain parts of the tour without anyone asking. We had a full tour and it felt like just the right group size. We loved the elegant palm chopsticks given as a parting gift.

This was an excellent experience, a very small market near the meeting point to see where Bangkok cooks get their ingredients then by tuktuk back to the kitchen for our cookery day. The menu varies by day of the week; we made coconut milk, Pad Thai, Tom Kha Gai, mango with sticky rice and green curry. Excellent tuition in a very well organised setting. I’d definitely recommend!

Nice people as you would expect in Thailand. Going to the food market was an interesting experience too. Prepared and cooking the food was very easy and a lot of fun. Come hungry as you will have lots to eat. You can take leftovers with you if you want? I recommend it as a great way to spend an afternoon.

A food tour is probably the best way to experience a new destination and of the many I have done on my first visit to Thailand, this hands on cooking class was the best. I have come to appreciate Thai food back home but my experiences here in Thailand are another thing all together. To see and learn where the chefs and locals buy their fresh ingredients and then to put them to use in a fine kitchen was simply delicious! I really recommend this tour.

Had great fun. Got picked up from hotel and was a little intimidated with the numbers at first but didn't need to be. Got taken to a food market and explained different fruits,foods etc before all then driving to the cooking school. It brilliant. So well organised,from being shown round the garden and to full instructions on what we were doing with 1 2 1 help. Suggest slip ons because you take off your shoes when you go to sit down( on the floor cushions) in separate room. The flavours,ingredients and help was fantastic. The lady who runs the school is great. Sounds like some schoolmaster and we all jumped but she is warm and passionate and hugged us all when we left. 100% DO THIS.

Everything about the class was amazing! Skye was personable, fun, knowledgeable, and made sure that everyone in the class was able to cook all dishes successfully. She accommodated everyone’s spice tolerance well and helped us adjust flavors to our liking. The hotel pickup and drop off were smooth. About a week before the class, you will be sent a menu with options to choose from for the 5 courses (appetizer, noodle dish, soup, curry, and dessert). Each person can choose what to cook individually. On the day of the class, you will be picked up from your hotel and driven to a local market, where many ingredients and foods commonly used in Thai cooking are explained. The guide will buy the fresh items and bring them back to the classroom. Then, over the course of around 4 hours, you’ll be walked through cooking 5 different courses. You’ll cook one or two courses, then pause to eat. I learned lots of basics about Thai cooking and ingredients, and made a delicious meal!

So much fun. They picked us up at our hotel and took us home afterwards. The group we were with we all had individual cooking areas. We created our own menus. We walk through the garden and learned about everything. Even got to have fresh eggs from the chickens who were laying them. It was just amazing experience and we loved our chef hostess who was Tay.

We loved this opportunity and the guidance that Gift gave us. The van picked everyone up-our hotel was outside the range so had a generic pickup inside the city center. We then went to a market and Gift pointed out different food items and talked about how they tasted or were cooked including the different types of rice. We then had time to explore where we purchased some spices and some fruits to try. After we went to the school where we started to cook, everything was pre portioned out and some things we could cut, the curry paste we made ourselves, but everything was very easily prepped-even if you didn’t know how to cook you could do this. We toured the garden learning about different Thai herbs and vegetables and then continued to cook, having opportunities to eat along the way until the end when we had our curry and noodles dishes with the dessert together. All the staff were super helpful and everything turned out tasty! We’re excited to have access to the recipe book to cook more at home
