    Best Cooking Class Experience
    You must book this cooking class when in Chang Mai!! The instructor has excellent knowledge and experience of cooking, he spoke great English and has a fantastic sense of humour, he was always cracking jokes and making us laugh. Make sure you eat very little before the class as you will cook five different courses that you will eat. My favourite was the Thai green curry and we even got to make the curry paste. We were treated to sticky mango rice for dessert which was delicious. We got given a recipe book after so we can attempt to cook the meals ourselves.

    A Chiang Mai highlight
    I can’t recommend these guys enough! We just did the evening cooking class and it was amazing! The visit to the market was so interesting and informative. Uon (the chef) and his wife are so friendly and hilariously funny! We laughed all the way through and learned so much. And his teaching was brilliant. Our dishes all turned out so well, we left feeling full and very happy. We’re so pleased with the cook book we left with and they kindly dropped us back at the gate near our hostel so we could walk off some of the food we ate. Highly recommend! More spicy more sexy! :)

    Very informative and fun!
    Oun was our instructor and he was very fun. The day started with a pickup from our hotel and stops along the way to the market to gather some of the remaining students. Once at the market, Oun provided excellent education on the various produce that we would use. Each student was able to choose their own dishes from a nice variety in multiple categories. The school has three separate rooms for preparation, cooking and dinning. Instructions for preparation and cooking were clear and easy to follow. I loved the aroma develop as you go through the cooking process. I felt so wonderful after completing each dish. Everything tasted so good and you get a nice sense of accomplishment! Oun is the best!

    Really fun and personal! Great food too!
    Oen was our guide and did a fantastic job! Absolutely plan to LOVE the food you make as it is soooooo fresh and tasty. You will be well fed as well so best to not eat a big meal beforehand. Very personalized cooking and they really are hands on and you go from nice and easy steps of making each dish to enjoying your own work. So much fun. Would be amazing to have your group of 4 to 6 people but coming solo works too as you will enjoy their teaching and the company of others! Good times !!

    Definitely a must do!
    My friends and I had a great time! We are really happy with our decision to go with this cooking school and would definitely recommend it! It is definitly the highlight of our stay in Chiang Mai. Oun and Kae are two lovely people who made the experience really fun! The class took place at their home which was a really nice touch. It made us feel welcome and comfortable. The cooking area is also very nice and made us feel like professional chefs. Absolutely a five star experience!

    Incredible experience !!!!
    We had the most fantastic evening cooking authentic Thai dishes after buying the ingredients from the local market. The hosts were exceptionally kind (and hilarious) and I couldn’t recommend this experience more highly. We were able to tailor the dishes to our own taste and dietary requirements, evening accommodating a vegan member of the group. Every single dish was mouth watering. An absolute must for anyone interested in Thai cuisine/ cooking.

    Great cooking course!
    It was a great experience! The owners were both friendly and fun people and were trying to do there best to make you feel comfortable. After visiting the local market we got our ingredients for the first meal of our choice and started preparing. After that we went to our cooking stations and cooked the meal. The owner was around all the time and was happy to answer every question. After cooking we ate and while eating everything was cleaned up and our cooking station was prepared for the next dish. I really enjoyed tbe class, we had a lot of fun and we could decide what we wanted to cook. It is completly worth the 800thb!

First we were unsure if we should pick this course, because they're so many schools with more reviews. But we were surprised by the generosity and humbleness of the cooking schools teacher and his wife. They are just so adorable, funny and made us feel like family. They even considered our wishes, in terms of seafood or not, vegetarian etc.
We learned a lot about Thai cooking and where we could possibly get the ingredients in our country. The food we made was often even better, than in some restaurants. Overall, it was really a highlight on our trip to Chiang Mai. I can highly recommend it to everyone, even if you have no skills in cooking.

What an amazing experience!! We booked the class the night before at 9pm for the morning class at 8am. They were very very nice and able to accommodate us last minute. They confirmed and communicated with us through WhatsApp within 30 minutes of booking. I tried to look for the “best” cooking class in Chiang Mai. Well cooking with Tomyumthai cooking class was exactly what we were looking for and more. The 5+ hours that we went there FLEW by SOO quickly. It was very fun and the instructor was really funny. We cooked pad thai, papaya salad, thai noodle soup, Khao soi paste, Khao soi, and sticky mango rice. If you’re on the fence about this class, just go ahead and book. You’ll have an amazing time!

My husband and I took the morning cooking class and had a wonderful time. We explored the market briefly and then went and made 5 different dishes (plus a curry!).

We loved the experience. The couple who runs the class is lovely and funny, the food was amazing and we are confident we will be able to recreate it at home!

It was a good mix of working alone and working together, and I definitely recommend coming hungry!

10/10 a must do in Chiang Mai!

I had an outstanding experience w Oun (not sure of spelling). The classes are done in the home of her and his wife, which was an additional treat. First, we visited a food market locals go to that’s in the central part of the city (this is why he does hotel pickups in the central city). He explained all ingredients and answered all questions about any kind of vegetable, herb or food there. We then returned to his home where he provided clear instructions on cooking. We made several courses (guests select in advance from a range of dishes in each course except dessert): pad Thai, Tom yum soup, papaya salad, panang curry paste and curry dish, mango sticky rice. It was more informative than I thought it would be and absolutely delicious. He gave the recipes at the end of class. I highly recommend this class!

if you thought about doing a cooking class oun‘s house, but you‘re not sure yet, do it bro. you will thank me later. this guy is by far one of the kindest locals we met on our 4weeks journey through thailand. other cooking classes may have more reviews, but this one is so familiar and so welcoming at his own house. there was nothing which was bad or even okay, everything was perfect! you even get a cooking book with all the recipes. just go for it and you will probably have one of the best experiences in the kitchen for your money.

My partner and I loved the experience. The instructor was super fun, and engaging. He had very clear English as well, making it very easy to follow. He mixed jokes and catchy phrases (some of which we still joke about weeks later!) with good cooking advice.
Before the class we were picked up in our hotel by his wife and then he showed us around the market, which was also a nice experience. We came back to that market a couple of days later, following his advice from that day.
I had zero experience in cooking classes and almost zero cooking experience, yet it was still very enjoyable. My partner had quite a bit of cooking experience (in Western food) and she also enjoyed it a lot. So it's probably for all levels!
The food we cooked was delicious, which made us very happy; just be ready to eat a lot!

The market was a unique experience and they did an excellent job of telling you exact translated names for all the ingredients used in you dishes. The Chef is a master at keeping everyone on track even though we had 4 different dishes going simultaneously across the group. He is also funny and made the experience seemless. If you are worried about spending a lot of down time bored in a 6 hr class don't. You are eating or cooking the entire class. It's engaging and thoroughly planned so you gain all the knowledge you need to make multiple thai dishes! I would recommend this class to anyone who loves to cook.

Extremely well organised and it shows!

Oun took us to the markets to buy our fresh ingredients for the class and he even teaches you about the different essential Thai ingredients. We were given 15 minutes to walk around and see what was available but pro tip: do not eat anything at the markets otherwise you won't have any room for all the delicious food you make.

My partner was a chef for 10 years and really enjoyed this class. I, being a novice cook, enjoyed the class just as much. We both highly recommend it and would definitely do it again. Just need a second stomach next time. :)

Thanks, Oun!!

We traveled for a month and this is one of my favorite things that we did. Oun was a great teacher, and the food we made was really tasty—I could not believe that I could just whip up my own pad see ew after years of ordering it for delivery. He also did a good job of figuring out how to shorten some of the recipes, like curries that normally take hours. I loved the menu and the market trip—learning about our ingredients was a great start to the experience. Be advised that the cooking area is a little warm (hot woks, after all), but totally worth it! Highly recommend.

I really loved the cooking class. I ended up being the only person showing up, as the other participants had postponed to the next day. The host is super friendly and speaks perfect English. I would definitely recommend it to anyone coming to Chiang Mai.
