Terrific experience, one we can easily recommend. The market tour was informative and interesting. We prepared four dishes, each of which was among the best food we’ve had in Thailand. Our guide and teacher, who told us to call her Ooh La La, was wonderful. Altogether a great outing, particularly good value for the cost.

Thoroughly enjoyable experience both in the market and at the venue.
Very well organised and you get to eat the food you cook.
Another plus was meeting a great group of ladies which enhanced my experience.
Thoroughly recommended!
Will be sad to leave Thailand..

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.

The cooking class was an awesome experience and I highly recommend this. The meals were delicious and filling. Make sure you go on a empty stomach.

Tour of the market a great way to start the experience. The cooking school was a well oiled machine...but more like a dance where the items were prepped just enough and ready for us to slice and dice and cook. Then we would leave the prep area and head to our table to dine on the 1st course as they cleaned and prepped and then set out the next items and cookware for us . It was all seemless. Oooh la la, the master chef was thorough and entertaining. The food was delicious and plentiful. Highly recc.

Excellent experience. Thoroughly enjoyed the day, learnt a lot and with a ratio of one chef to 6 students, it left time for everyone to get to grip with everything that went on.

Absolutely enjoyable activity to do with friends and the family. The market experience before the cooking class is a great way to learn about Thai food and the various ingredients.

The cooking class was good fun and the market tour was great. Make sure you wear closed shoes as there’s a fish market. O was a great teacher and Greg the owner was able to tell us about the business. Don’t eat before you go… you’re going to eat like a king. Book and enjoy a great cooking experience.
