Fun and Memorable experience! Thank you for the great service! - Had a memorable experience with the team. Our cooking instructor and assistant was very helpful and friendly. The whole program went really smoothly. 2 vans picked us up at our hotel and they were on time. We went for a quick visit at the afternoon market and cooking instructor showed us around and shared with us some the common ingredients used for Thai dishes. Then there was another 20 mins drive to the the actual cooking class. The main gathering area was air-conditioned and there were welcome drinks and snacks. Additional drinks were available for purchase. Cooking class was in a separate room, enough fans to cool us down during the hot weather! Instructions were clear and the facility was generally clean as well. We got to cook and eat our own dishes at the end of the program. Really easy and fun experience with colleagues. Would recommend for team-bonding sessions or couples who want to learn to cook simple thai dishes!

Everyone traveling to Thailand MUST DO THIS! - We absolutely loved our experience at the Thai Cooking Academy! We started at the market learning more about local ingredients.
We loved this class because we were both able to choose our own separate dishes! We each cooked 4 different dishes & learned a lot about cooking Thai food.
We would highly recommend anyone coming to Phuket to do this class. They have a morning and afternoon option & it was just a few hours!

Would recommend doing this - Nil was fantastic! We really enjoyed the whole experience, from the market tour to the cooking class. Nil also helped us pick out items we wanted to purchase from the market separately, and it was great to have her help us talk with the vendors in Thai. Her cooking instructions were very clear, and the teaching class makes the prep easy. Fun activity to do with your group.

great experience - Had an great experience learning about the produces and ingredients along with the cooking a few dishes. The course is well timed and perfect for amateur cooks and tourists.
I would have given it a 5/5 if I had learnt and made the paste then. But again I am not really complaining about it.
