Great time and greater food! - Had a great time! The team took great care of us and it was SUCH a good set up to learn about Thai ingredients and cooking - and the food itself! Yummy, and we had leftovers to take with us. They also kindly catered to our allergies. Highly recommended

Fun, friendly and delicious! - Had a great day learning some local Koh Samui dishes and preparation techniques. Started with a trip to the market to pick up the ingredients - a great way to get a glimpse of local life. Then to the cookery school which was very well set up and surprisingly cool on a hot day! Was shown the traditional way of preparing coconuts and even made our own coconut milk. The dishes were delicious and was emailed all the recipes (and some extras) by the friendly team.

Very enjoyable afternoon - Great experience from start to finish, started with a very interesting local tour with a good amount of knowledgeable information on local produce. Then to the farm, a very relaxed pace of cooking , starting with information , chopping of the food to be cooked and cooking of a good variety of dishes. Then to eat the food, which was more than enough, and any surplus was packed for later. The hosts talked to us throughout and showed us around the farm garden to see the growing of some of the ingredients. A very enjoyable afternoon

Fabulous afternoon cooking! - Picked up from the hotel and we were taken to a nearby market where we had a great overview of the food we’ll be using, then onto where the class was. We chopped and stir fried, being guided carefully each step. We prepared spring rolls and two other dishes, which were simply delicious l, made using fresh ingredients. The facilities were great and clean, with an individual area, for up to 8 people. Well worth the time, and the market visit adds to the experience. Recommend.

Great cooking class with very nice hosts - The tour is highly recommended! We were picked up from our accommodation on time and went to a local market with the hostess, which was very interesting. There she explained a lot about local products and bought a few things. In the course we cooked three dishes ourselves and two more were prepared for us. We are experienced cooks, but we learned a lot and it was very well prepared and very clean. We had our five-month-old daughter with us and they took a lot of consideration for that too.

Wonderful experience at this Thai cooking class. - We love Thai food and were excited to take a cooking class while in Thailand. It was interesting to go to the market and learn about the different curry options as well as the seafood. The outdoor kitchen was great and the whole experience from making our own coconut milk to the preparation of the delicious dishes, was fabulous. Come with a hearty appetite! Transportation to and from our hotel was a definite positive. We look forward to making these dishes when we return to the states as the recipes will be emailed to us. Highly recommend!!

Fun class in beautiful outdoor kitchen - Pick up was easy, van was nice and air conditioned. Market tour was short but thorough. Instructor was funny and helpful. Learned how to make four dishes. All were delicious was a little thrown off by chicken wings, would have liked to make more of a Thai dish.. menu said fried chicken with fish sauce... this is chicken wings? They were really good though. the original menu that they sent I didn't want to do because it had octopus so they made a new menu for my friend and I which was nice. We made pad thai but the sauce was pre-done. I was expecting to make the sauce, so was a little bummed about that . Overall, though it was a very fun experience, and I learned how to make new dishes. We would make a dish sit down to eat it, and their crew would clean up and prep the set up for our next dish. It was very efficient. we cooked outside in the shade. The temperature felt great as we started at 4 PM. The property is beautiful the owners built everything out of bamboo. Highly recommend this class.

Fantastic Cookery School with Perfect Hosts!!! - Cannot rate this experience high enough, the hosts husband and wife and also local professional chef were all so welcoming and knowledgeable. The small tour of the local market was great and then on to the farm where everything is set up for you and ready to go. The owner was so accommodating and even showed us 2 additional dishes not on the days menu which was a bonus!! We also had the pleasure of sharing the experience with newly weds from Kuwait who were so lovely and such fun 😁. We would definitely go back for more when we return to Samui❤️
