I did the half day tour & found it to be enough due to the heat.. Our instructor was very charasmatic and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.. Tuk tuk picks you up from the restaurant takes you to the market, from the marketnto the kitchen then takes you back to the frizz restaurant! More

We did the half day cooking school and thoroughly enjoyed it. We joined in with 5 other tourists so not too big a group. Our Cambodian tutor was excellent and made the morning lots of fun. We visited the market and had all the various vegetables, spices, fruits and fish explained to us. We made beautiful spring rolls with dipping... More

This course is really good. The day starts with a quick market visit and then back to the school. On course 1 you start with spring rolls, then amok, then banana blossom salad and finally mango and rice dessert. The day is spaced out quite a bit, with an amount of sitting and eating and then waiting, but too much... More

The day started with a trip to the markets. I found it slightly confronting as I am a bit squeamish, but it was a great eye opener and cultural experience. We then proceeded to a roof top terrace to commence cooking. The food we made was so delicious, I'm just worried I might have trouble sourcing the ingredients back at... More

The experience for myself and my wife was somewhat skewed by the fact that our class did not include a trip to the market as advertised for some reason, yet no additional dishes were cooked in place of the missed experience. The class itself was interesting and informative, cooking a delicious fish amok and taro spring rolls which were unusual... More

My 11 years old daughter and myself attended the full day class. We loved it!. The visit to the market was very helpful. We got to see and learn about fruit and veggies we never seen before. Our teacher was very kind and he had a very pleasant attitude - not to mention his great knowledge of Khmer cooking. We... More

I have been to many cooking schools around SE Asia and every time, have done my research, booked and had a great time. For the first time, however, I was truly let down. The Cambodia Cooking Class - run out of Frizz cafe - was headed up by a guy appeared truly disinterested with our market visit, giving little or... More

This is a great way to spend a half a day ( after seeing the 3 major attractions). You not only get to learn how to make the national dish "fish amok", eat it but you get taken to the old Market to buy the ingredients. I found that so helpful, as I was living here for 6 weeks and... More

I did this cooking class in November 2010 and I have to say that it was a great experience. There were around 12 persons in our group - 9 of which doing only half day and 3 of us doing the whole day. As programmed we started our tour on the morning market of Phnom Penh, which was a great... More

I did a half day cookery class and really enjoyed it. I regularly take cookery classes and this was equally as good as cookery schools in London. The spring rolls that we made were average but wow the fish amok was amazing, utterly delicious! I ate numerous amoks in Cambodia and this was by far the best recipe :) The... More
