The three of us in our group enjoyed the class tremendously. We each did a different dish on every round and got to taste each other’s things. Natalee was a great teacher and we were happy to have her as our lead.
Awesome cook with Natalie

Such an amazing evening at Smile Farms with Natalie. Great to learn about the ingredients, make our own curry paste with a mortar and pestle, and learn a few local dishes. Hands down the best Tom Yum soup I’ve ever had. Bonus - Natalie is hilarious.

What a delightful experience! Our instructor, #Luna, was very knowledgeable, and the class is very hands on - everyone gets involved and you get to choose the dishes you get to make. Skip breakfast as you will prepare (and eat) a lot of food! 10/10 recommend!!

I came with 2 friends and we loved the experience. From the very beggining they were really nice, came pick us up at the place we were staying and then we went to a farmers market to look at the fresh products we were going to use. Then we came to the farm itself and we got to know, try and smell some of the herbs and condiments we were going to use in our cooking. After that we were thought how to do each dish, cooked it and, THE BEST PART, we ate it!! It was really really good, and we had a really good guide and teacher, Luna! I couldn’t recommend more this experience! It gave us an opportunity to get to know people from other countries and cultures, cook food so different from ours and also delicious and eat until we were really full! Couldn’t recommend this more! Come!!
Great cooking with Luna

Amazing Cooking Experience at Smile Organic Farm! My wife and I had an absolutely brilliant time at Smile Organic Farm Cooking School! Luna was a fantastic host, warm, knowledgeable, and so much fun to learn from. The entire experience was well organised and hands on! The food we made was incredible, and we loved learning authentic techniques and recipes. It was one of the highlights of our trip, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area. #teamluna
