Great and fun experience

Very nice and fun teacher. Everyone gets their own wok, so you can decide how spicy you want to eat. The Location is very pretty and clean. The eating room is airconditioned, which is very nice.

Tasty experience

We really enjoyed our morning shopping and cooking at the Silom cookery school. Our host was really engaging and the group very friendly. If you have chance to visit. Do it.

An Awesome Cooling Class!

An absolutely incredible time! Our instructor Mee was so totally engaging and informative. She made it feel like we were all honored guests in her own personal kitchen. Moreover, the entire curriculum was well crafted and executed. The market tour was so fun, ingredients we used could not have been fresher, and the food we ended up with could not have been tastier. We will book again when we return to Bangkok.
