We had a wonderful chef teaching us took cook several courses (and her team worked like magic to clean & reset up each section while we enjoyed the fruits of our labors). Very enjoyable, with online link to recipes provided at the end. I thought we would also visit the market, but that took place with the morning group.

Wonderful and fun hands-on experience. Who knew tasty Thai food was so easy to make. My advice is to come with an empty stomach to finish the 4 dishes you learn how to make. If we had time, I'd rebook another day to learn another set of recipes. Highly recommend.

Great class and wonderful evening

Stephanie_N, Apr 2026
We had a wonderful evening not just cooking but learning about how the spices and ingredient combinations add to the flavor of the dishes. Thanks so much for sharing your talent and making it fun.

Great food class in Bangkok

Donald_W, Feb 2026
We have done a number of cooking classes in Bangkok but this was the best. Jay did a wonderful job explaining the how and why of the dishes. Food that we cooked for ourselves was very good.

I cannot recommend this...

Jasmine_W, Feb 2026
I cannot recommend this activity enough! I did the morning class with Jay and it was fun, educational, and delicious. Come hungry!

Learning to cook Thai foods is amazing

Maria_G, Feb 2026
Best class ever, we never thought that it is that informative and the food is so great. We learned a lot from it today!

The class was very fun!...

Tom_V, Jan 2026
The class was very fun! Our instructor was very friendly and informative and provided a lot of guidance while also maintaining a fun "classroom" environment. Each dish was tasty and easy enough to prepare by myself (a novice cook) but fun enough for my partner (an experienced cook). The instructor also did a great job of connecting different groups within the class, so we got to know each other better. All in all, we'd recommend it to friends!

Jay_S, Jan 2026
I didn’t think I can cook at all but she made it very easy and the food came out great. Didn’t know how easy it was.

Michelle_B, Jan 2026
This was such a fun way to experience the culture and learn what you are eating! We had a nice tour of the market and has SO much good food. The facility was really clean and nice. Definitely recommend!

Fun Thai cooking class

Fabrizio_B, Dec 2025
Great time, easy to understand, and hands on experience. This a truly must do when in Bangkok, it gives you a better understanding of Thai basic cuisine.

This was one of the best...

Alexander_N, Dec 2025
This was one of the best cooking classes I've ever done. Our instructor was funny and engaging, and helped us understand the history of the food we were making as well as details about all of the ingredients. This tour had exactly the right level of hands-on instruction while still allowing us to do all of the work to cook. The pacing was also great as well; we ate often enough to not be hungry during class, and were given enough time to enjoy each course and chat with our fellow classmates. The food was also fantastic. We used fresh ingredients picked by the instructor and an earlier class to make pad thai, papaya salad, green curry, and mango sticky rice. Loved this experience and would recommend it to anyone.

What a fantastic experience!

Michelle_C, Nov 2025
What a fantastic experience! Jay was absolutely brilliant 👏 from start to end every experience was explained in detail with a bit of a cheeky sense of humour along the way. We learnt so much and now realise how easy it is to make from scratch. We had a walk through the market and learnt about different vegetables and noodles ,rice etc I highly recommend this experience .

Amazing time!

Paola_G, Nov 2025
It was a wonderful experience. The instructors were super nice, and the food was amazing! Definitely worth every penny!

The food was super tasty and class was very informative. Step by step instruction from Jay was very helpful!

100% do it

Jeremy_F, Aug 2025
DO IT. 10/10 recommend. If you want to try everything and are able to eat an enormous amount of food, DO IT. Guides were amazing and had a runner to go and set the table so you just walk up to the food. Literally cannot recommend enough

Amazing, would book again!

Lorenzo_B, Jul 2025
What a fantastic experience! Our chef, April, was really lovely. She explained e few essential ingredients at the market. After we left for the cooking school with Tuk-Tuk‘s. At the school she explained every dish and every ingredient very detailed. The atmosphere was lovely and we could ask all questions. Head‘s up, don‘t eat breakfast before! You‘re endind up with 3 dishes and a desert. Overall really lovely experience!

Website booked the wrong date even though I selected a later date and now I can't get a refund. I wouldn't recommend it.

Absolutely wonderful cooking class with delicous Thai food and a great instructor!

Noah_F, Jun 2025
Absolutely wonderful cooking class - great teacher, great venue, good split of indoor prep + eating areas and outdoor cooking areas. The recipes were all delicious 10/10, and included fresh & whole ingredients so we got to learn how to prep them and cook them.

Fun afternoon for the whole family! My kids, 12 and 18, are already asking to recreate the recipes at home. Our chef was engaging and a lot of fun. I would take this class again!

Fantastic class

Sam_M, Mar 2025
This class was so fun and we made so much food. It was informative and thorough. I only wish we had some Thai cooking music to jam to.

Amazing but would recommend the morning class!

Katherine_A, Mar 2025
This was an amazing class! It was super informative and we learned 4 dishes. We were disappointed that the only one we could get was an afternoon one and therefore didn't get to do a market tour, and the class size was a little bigger than we would've liked, but otherwise it was great! Our instructor was very funny and knowledgeable and the food was super yummy!

Thai cooking class

Hazel_B, Mar 2025
The chef is knowledgeable, give us good tips and information about the ingredients. Pad Thai is one of dishes that we make and it tasted better than the pad Thai I have ordered from room service the night before.
