What an incredibly fun experience this was! We received private lessons from Oun (there were only the 2 of us) but that didn't make him any less enthusiastic. He first took us to the market where he explained a lot about different ingredients. Then we went to the cooking school, which is at his house just outside the center in Chiang Mai. Everything was very well organised! Cooked 5 delicious dishes and mango sticky rice for dessert, where we even received an explanation about the type of rice to use for this.
If you are looking for a fun cooking course in Chiang Mai, I would definitely recommend this one. Small tip: you get a lot of food so don't eat in advance.

They are very friendly and funny, the food is fresh and delicious. At the end they give you a little book of receipts that you did. You will eat so much, you won't even want to eat for 2 more days! Really something to do!

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.

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!

This cooking class was everything we had hoped for. After a brief tour and talk about local food at the markets our group of seven were off to cook. Little chef (Oun) is very funny, a great teacher and chef. Him and his wife (Kae, pronounced Gay) are amazing hosts, who both speak excellent English. We were really happy with the meals we cooked and learnt heaps. I am a vege and all meals could be tweaked to suit my needs and my husband's dislike of anything fishy. You can get take aways if you are unable to eat all of your courses. We did the evening course and it wasnt to hot with lots of fans keeping us cool. Tip - there are momentos to purchase if you want, so would advise bringing a little Bhat.

We can not recommend this experience enough! We did the evening cooking class and learned how to make 5 delicious meals including Pad Thai, Tom Yum Soup, and our personal favourite, Khao Soi! We left very full and extremely happy! Oun and Kae, who run the cooking school out of their home, are a local Thai couple who have a huge passion for food - they even met at cooking school! Oun is very knowledgeable and taught us so much about many ingredients we had never even heard of. The class was very well organized and professional - while you were cooking, the team was behind the scenes prepping the ingredients for your next meal and cleaning up. And to top it all off, they even send you home with a cook book explaining how to make each meal when you get home! Oun and Kae are both very funny and welcoming. This is our favourite activity we've done in Chiang Mai so far - highly recommend!!

Whilst we waited patiently for kae to pick us up from our hotel my thoughts were ok will this be a boring cooking class we'll let me tell you this, from the moment we were picked up and driven to the local thai market to select your produce I could not stop laughing. Kae made us feel very comfortable with her witty, loveable and hilarious personality. She explained what the food was and how it is used within thai dishes. We arrived at the home of Kae were this little pocket rocket nood took over and taught us the way local thai cook food, I must state this lady is probably one of the funniest and loveable people to teach with her infectionous personality nood makes cooking fun. Step by step guide of how things are done and learning and sweet fuk, normal fuk and Thai fuk, if I can recommend a fantastic evening then this would be the first thing I would organise when I arrive in chiang mai. Thank you very much for the most amazing night nood and my favourite buom boi kae. Regards Matt & Jo x

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.
