Easily my favorite experience on the trip - My friends and I did the half-day tour (with the add-on to start at the food market, which I highly recommend) on our last day in Phuket. This was probably my favorite event of the trip. Tik was our guide and did a phenomenal job of keeping class both humorous and informative. The food we made was outstanding. My only complaint was we had such a big meal - there was no way I could eat it all!! I hated to leave it behind. Now that I am back home, I am definitely wishing I could have eaten it all. It gives me a great appreciation of the amount of work and ingredients that it takes to make such a flavorful meal - which I hadn't thought about when ordering at a restaurant. If I were to go back, I'd do this activity again on a different day. Be sure to check what items are scheduled to be made on the day you are booking. There are different appetizers, soups, entrees and desserts made each of the 7 days in the week. We didn't know this when booking and literally lucked out to pick a day with my favorite items that I always get at home.

Lovely, private, patient and exactly what you are expecting: get to know how to cook delicious thai food! - It was very easy to book and we were writing in WhatsApp the day before about all the details. We came to the cooking place by ourselves (even if pick up was included) we could find it very easily. Lucky us another group cancelled their booking so it was a very private lesson just us two and Tik. First we want together to the market to get to know all the ingredients as well as how to make the right choices about freshness etc. After that we started to prepare everything discussed about the details, as well as about private things which it made very familiar (lovely). The meals were delicious and we hope to cook it at home as good as it was here with the recipe we get. Thanks to Tik and her helping hands - highly recommended!

So much fun! - We had a great time at the morning half-day class! Our instructor Tik was fun and informative. We really enjoyed learning about and working with ingredients that were new and different to us. We also liked that the class was very hands on and engaging. Finally, starting the morning at the food market was a great bonus Transport was also super convenient because the class provides pick up and drop off at your hotel. Overall we’d highly recommend this experience!

Good Fun Beginners Cookery Class - This was a great fun activity to try if you're in Phuket and have half a day to spare. We were picked up from our hotel and taken to meet Karn the cookery teacher. We were a small class of 5 which was great. We started off in the market where she introduced us to the different fresh produce we'd be using before she bought it then we headed to the kitchens to start our cookery class. It was all done with great humour and joking but the cooking and the way the dishes turned out was excellent, definitely aimed at novices like me but even serious cooks will enjoy. Would definitely recommend

Great - Overall a great experience. The food was great! The market trip was fascinating. Teacher was interesting and knowledgeable. A couple minor things. 1. The demonstration room was very cold. 2. There were no aprons. We were working with turmeric and other things that could stain our clothes. 3. Timing was a bit off. Lots of time talking about the spices for the spice mix so we ran out of time and had to take our dessert home. I liked that she gave us the recipes beforehand do we could make notes as we went along. I’ll be making these at home!

Great food & instructor but be warned very primitive set up - Food & instructor great & we were easily able to prep, follow & cook 3 basic authentic Thai dishes! Delicious prawn soup, tasty Green chicken curry, Chicken Pad Thai noodles🙌Sticky rice & mango dessert demonstration was done for us as time was getting away! (allow at least an extra 60-90 mins)😊Clean but very primitive kitchen set up which really is cooking in a ‘hot tin shed’ with attached air conditioned dining, prep room. Pick up & drop off was great👍 Prior food shopping at local produce market was good & informative. Instructor speaks good English & has a great sense of humour 🙂If you want an upmarket experience, this is not for you. Best you do a class at your resort or hotel😉I enjoyed meeting other travellers & cooking with my friend. No aprons supplied though we didn’t seem to need them. Take away containers supplied & staff assistance during & at end of lesson was very helpful also👍Thank you ladies for your kind assistance 🙂
