Fantastic day of cooking in a small group on a beautiful farm just outside of Chiang Mai. I enjoyed the trip to the small market and the explanation from Natty about different spices and ingredients used in Thai cooking. Natty was a wonderful teacher. Each participant was able to choose a personalized menu. We made so much food that we had to take some of our dishes to go. We were able to choose our spice level, all ingredients were fresh (some ingredients came from the garden on the farm) and recipes are provided so we can try cooking the dishes at home. I highly recommend this food class.

Great experience . I booked the half day at first but decided to switch to full day after seeing the menu. Really well explained and good infrastructure. Natty is a great teacher. I go back full of memories, recipes and some food to eat later.

Cool experience where we tried making stir-fry, curry and a soup. It was amazing that we got to pick our own menu, and the cooking session was well instructed by Love, our guide. The market visit beforehand was a bit boring, though. Everything else was great.

The full-day cooking course at Smile Organic Farm was an amazing experience! The atmosphere was relaxed and authentic, the ingredients were fresh from the garden, and the instructors explained everything in a clear and friendly way. We prepared several traditional Thai dishes step by step and enjoyed eating them together afterwards. It felt very personal and well organized from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to learn real Thai cooking in a beautiful setting!

Very enjoyable day cookery course, led by Lily who was with you from pick up at hotel to dropping you back later, as well being your instructor during the course. Good explanation of the basics and watchful eye whilst doing the practical element of preparing and cooking
