      Amazing cooking class

      Carol_R, Sep 2025
      We had a wonderful experience with Dee. Our tuk-tuk driver took us to a local market and talked to us about the vegetables being sold in the market. He then took us to Dee's home, where she has a lovely covered cooking porch inside her beautiful garden. We each prepared three Khmer dishes. We both chose to start with a green mango salad. My 2nd dish was Samlor ktis. My husband had Amok fish. We had an option for dessert, but since we don't like sweets we chose a vegetable dish for our third dish. I had crispy fried mushrooms and tofu and he had fried morning glory. Dee was a great teacher and we learned a lot about Khmer cooking. The food was delicious and I would highly recommend this tour as a great way to learn about Khmer cooking and culture.

      The cooking class was cancelled. Nobody told me until I rang to find out what was happening!

      Since I didn't have a class there were no memorable parts! If I had been told before the event that would have been OK but I was not informed until I rang to find out what was happening.

      Best cooking class in Siam Reap, Cambodia!!!!

      Lisa_P, Dec 2023
      I can’t say enough about how cool this cooking class was! We were picked up at our hotel and brought to the market where we were able to see all of the fruits vegetables, fish and meats for sale. Then we went to a beautiful area and began the cooking class.. We learned how to cook Vietnamese spring rolls, morning, glory, vegetable, three different salads, chicken curry, and a fish dish. We each got to choose what we wanted to cook. We learned a ton and the chef Dee was amazing. She was very funny and engaging! She was also very informative and we learned a ton about indigenous vegetables and spices. We had a great time and ate a ton! I highly highly recommend this tour. There are many tours at hotels and other's but this one was very authentic. We always felt safe and were in great hands with both Dee and her husband as our guide.

      Unmissable experience for the food and the company

      MayaH, Nov 2023
      What a fantastic experience with Dee. We were 3 with different level of experience and all produced some amazing food. We got to choose 1 starter, 1 main and 1 dessert to make and then went shopping to market to get some of the ingredients, as well as picking up some from the garden. Dee was so lovely and patient and very good at explaining all the ingredients. It was wonderful to be welcome and spend some time with locals where they live rather than touristy area. Again even if it was just for the food, it is incredible value but the whole experience makes it superb. Definitely recommend +++++++

      Response from Host, Oct 2024

It sounds like you enjoyed both the market visit and the hands-on cooking, especially with the fresh ingredients from the garden. Dee’s welcoming nature and clear explanations truly make a difference. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’re so glad you found the experience valuable. We hope to see you again for more culinary adventures!

      Excellent experience

      Lisa_H, Apr 2023
      This is a highly recommend and excellent activity. The tutor was very knowledgeable. The kitchen was very clean. We were provided with cold water throughout the activity. Dee adapted some of the recipes to allow us to change this to vegetarian. It was most enjoyable and highly recommended. The good was delicious?

      Response from Host, Oct 2024

      It sounds like you had a fantastic experience! It's great to hear that Dee was able to adapt the recipes for vegetarian options, ensuring everyone could enjoy the cooking class. Having clean facilities and staying hydrated with cold water throughout the activity makes a big difference too.
