A GREAT EXPERIENCE!
Súper cool experience in Chiang Mai! The teacher was so funn and everthing was incredible!!
Aroy mak mak!
Everything was amazing! The instructors are knowledgeable, personable, and have a good sense of humor. Our Akha instructor explained the history of Thailand and its original provinces as well as her tribal culture. I enjoyed the market tour as we had the opportunity to see how the locals shop vs. the touristy walking street markets. I liked preparing the food in a hands on traditional way. I would highly recommend this cooking class!

It was a very nice experience! We enjoyed it (the food and de cooking).
amazing Thai cooking experience in Thai Akha
It was my first ever Thai cooking lesson. The cooking class with Thai Akha is absolutely amazing from start to finish. I was picked up in my hotel on time and drove to a local market to get the freshest ingredients with Mor whom is one of the very nice chief from Thai Akha. All ingredients are all well prepared, the venue is very clean, spacious and tidy. All the equipments are cleaned and ready to be used. We have learned and cooked total 11 dishes, and we get to eat all of them ( don't worry they give us breaks in between😂). I have never cooked Thai food before and I am very happy with the outcome of the hard work today. Niti is the head chief who is attentive and professional. Not only she taught us cooking , she also told us about food history of different part of Thailand. At the end we got given a recipes booklet listed all the ingredients with pictures and details. I would highly recommend Thai Akha if you ever come to Chaing Mai for a great experience in cooking.
Necessary to feel the atmosphere and handmade
The steps are easy to operate, but the things that look and eat and feel very restaurant, but also in the market know a lot of things, a lot of things are not to know or eat at all, very worth experiencing, the order of arrangement is also very comfortable, the whole process is not a burden, is eating very full (breakfast really don't have to eat a little first, thinking of a mat a little, come carefully too full) The teaching method is very humorous and fun, just had a good weather, and the mood would be really good all day.
