A Fantastic Thai Cooking Experience in Phuket! - Our afternoon at Phuket Thai Cooking Class by Chef VJ was absolutely amazing! The class was well-organized, fun, and perfect for a group of friends looking to learn authentic Thai cooking in a relaxed and welcoming environment. The kitchen setup was spotless and professional, and everything was prepared so we could focus on cooking and enjoying ourselves. The team guided us through each dish step by step, making it easy to follow and ensuring everyone felt confident. The recipes were simple yet packed with flavor, and the results were truly delicious—definitely something we can recreate at home! What made the experience stand out was the friendly atmosphere and the attention to detail. It felt like a social event as much as a cooking class, with plenty of laughs and great food to share at the end.

Highlight of my Phuket trip! - This experience was set up by the trip advisor and it did not disappoint! The flavors of all 4 dishes were more than satisfactory. I enjoyed being able to control my spice level of each dish because I personally enjoy very spicy or what is referred to as “Thai spicy”. The instructors were hands on and very attentive which was also really appreciated. The instructor, GiGi was friendly and could be understood easily. My favorites were the Tom Yum soup and mango sticky rice ( it was my first time trying mango sticky rice and I loved it!) very special ! Kap Kun Kap!

Must-Do Thai Cooking Adventure - So much fun! The food was absolutely delicious, and we got to eat everything we cooked ourselves. The teachers were warm, funny, and had such a deep understanding of Thai cuisine and its history. Honestly, one of the best experiences I’ve had in Thailand.

Best Thai Cooking Experience - This was an amazing cooking class. The best one I have taken. Instructions were provided step-by-step. First, they took us to the local market to see the ingredients we would use. We made 4 dishes: a soup, pad Thai, curry (we made our own curry paste) and mango sticky rice. I highly recommend this experience. We were able to cook what we cooked and we are full!
