Experience Details

Unlike a standard cooking class with a fixed menu, this experience begins at a local market where guests can explore fresh Thai ingredients with a local chef.


Each guest receives 200 THB to shop for ingredients at the market. With guidance from the chef, you can choose fresh produce, herbs, and spices, then discuss the Thai dishes you would like to prepare based on your tastes, dietary needs, and the day’s market availability.


Every class feels different. Couples, families, and friends can enjoy a more personal cooking experience, learning how Thai ingredients are selected, how local flavors are balanced, and how fresh market finds are turned into homemade Thai dishes.


More than just a cooking class, this is a hands-on cultural experience where you create your own Thai food story to take home.
