5.00Very good day out, we were considering going out to a waterpark, but am very happy we chose to do this instead. Love was really helpful and explained everything to us clearly and concisely. All the food was very tasty if I do say so myself and will be trying to recreate the recipes when I get home.

5.00Great experience! I did this with my partner as one of our activities, and I can’t recommend it enough - especially if you want your man to learn and start cooking at home :p There were around 10 people in our group, all from different parts of the world, which made it a fantastic way to meet new people. Our guide and head chef, Lily, was wonderful and created such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Overall, an amazing experience for 900 BHT per person —10/10!

5.00Our instructor Lily was amazing- so funny, bubbly, knowledgeable with an amazing sense of humour. One of the best experiences I have had in Thailand. I made Khai Soi, Pad ka prow and Tom yum soup- there lots of other options and can adjust spice level. We visited the markets, the garden, learned lots and made the curry paste from scratch! Thank you so much- Aroi maak-khàawp-khun khâ🤍🤍🤍
