- Thai Akha Kitchen - Chiang Mai - Besides learning how to cook Thai Food and Akha Food, you will learn and experience the different culture of Thai and Akha, also learn the history of Thailand through food. In our Morning Class we will take you to the Local Market to see the real lifestyle of local people where you can all the same produce, at all different prices. We call this “same same, but different”! At the Local Market, you will be treated like a local person, no special treatment to gain profit for tourists here! Thai markets are very different from western markets, so get ready for some interesting experiences.
Why choose the Evening Cooking Class? Fits around a busy day schedule. First home cooked Thai dinner in Thailand. No need to worry or plan where or what do eat for dinner just come and cook! It’s cooler in the evening, actually a much better time to be cooking. The kitchen is an outdoor set up with a mix of Thai-Akha culture atmosphere. The dining room with air-conditioning. Relaxing and easy chill-out place.
