This was such a great experience - well worth the money! Our instructor, whose name started with a T (Tigwan?), was so the best! His English was great, he was making us laugh the whole time, and he was so knowledgeable and skilled. We got to make so many delicious dishes and received an ebook after with all the recipes. Highly recommend booking!!

Fantastic Thai Cooking Class with Tiwan (Smart Cook)

Ranjeet_S, Mar 2025

I had an amazing experience with this Thai cooking class, and to my surprise, I ended up with a private session! As someone who enjoys cooking Thai food at home, I still learned a great deal—new ingredients, techniques, and expert explanations from Tiwan, the wonderful instructor and host. The location was great, and the convenience of hotel pickup and drop-off made it even better. The private session allowed for a more personalized experience, and I highly recommend it if you have the chance. I would absolutely do this again and choose a different set of dishes next time. Highly recommended!

Tourist cooking like a local!

Great class, made four dishes and they added dessert. Teacher explained what we were doing, made it seem so easy. My dishes were yummy if I say so myself 😛. Pickup and drop off at hotel was a great bonus.

Fantastic

I have been wanting to do a Thai cooking class forever. Christina made the whole process so fun. Everything I made came out perfectly and I have the recipe book that was also included.

Great!

Jemana_W, Jan 2025

This was great. The teacher explained very clearly so everyone ended up with amazing food. If you don't like spice leave the chilli out! The teacher said its not that spicy but it was.

Recommend but needs improving for a smoother experience

Cailey_D, Nov 2024

+the teacher was nice, funny and knowledgable +you make 4 dishes so you get your moneys worth and they tasted great +lovely people and the class has so much potential. -everyone chooses different dishes and the teacher had no way of remembering who was doing what which led to her repeatedly asking everyone what they were making. It became confusing for everyone. -you had to wait for the teacher to explain how to do things for dishes you weren’t making, meaning you were just standing there -she realised there weren’t enough stoves for the whole group so some of us had to wait for others to cook before we got to. This made it feel unorganised and made me lose interest at points where I had to just wait around. -these negatives made it a not very relaxing class and actually a bit stressful. The teacher was clearly run off her feet. More staff are needed per group.

Amazing!

Cody_N, Oct 2024

Amazing class with a market tour! So much delicious food we made! Everything was step by step and easy to follow. She even provided us with an e-book for Thai cooking!!!

Friendly and informative lesson

Phil_A, Jul 2024

Friendly, informative hosting and plenty of delicious food to eat as a result. We all made our own selections from a set of choices, which was great for vegetarians and spice lovers

Allergies

Charlotte_B, Mar 2024

Aleaf was an amazing teacher, I have a couple of allergies but he made sure I was okay to cook and eat everything

Highly recommended. New is a rockstar

ANRICA_L, Mar 2024

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at the Thai cooking class. The ambiance was homely, and our instructor, New, was incredibly engaging and fun. The instructions were clear, making it easy to follow along. Despite the hot weather, the enjoyable company and New's guidance made the class truly delightful. Plus, the food we prepared turned out delicious. It's a family-friendly establishment that accommodates various dietary preferences with ease.

Amazing!

Brigite_D, Feb 2024

Great experience where we were able to choose the dishes we would like to cook. They provide a online recipe book at the end of the class so it’s not necessary to remember all the ingredients!
