Very bad experience

Very very disappointing. It looks more like an expensive restaurant than a cooking class. no any explanation during the cooking class. everything was prepared in forecast. They just asked us to put the ingredients in the pan without telling us what we were cooking. We asked many questions but with only a few responses. Limited English vocabulary which lead to a dificult communication. We did not receive the cooking book but they will send it (email). The program : 8h30 - 8h45 : taxi to market 8h45 - 9h15 : market but nothing bought because everything was already buy 9h15 - 9h30 : taxi to restaurant 9h30 - 10h : cut vegetables as a comee because everything is already prepared To cook 10h - 10h30 : Cooking but in fact the cooker is doing everything except mixed together 10h30 - 11h00 : eat what you have prepared 11h00 - 11h15 : taxi to hostel Very far away from the "half day" sold. Very sad for our last day in chiang mai Run away from this acrivity !
