Went for the cooking class at 9am. We had a tour around the local market, learned about the different produce and meat and how it is prepared. Being shown how coconut milk is made was really interesting, and knowing that westerners are actually eating “chicken feed” is a hilarious fact I’ve committed to memory! The claw itself was a brilliant experience and I’d highly recommend it to anyone wanting to try their hand and learn some new recipes to take home with them. Both Lyly and Savath were lovely, helpful and being in their restaurant was great. The quality of ingredients was fresh and I can’t fault it. Preparing the food and cooking your own meal, is always a tastier affair in my opinion and the end result (with the guidance of Savath) resulted in some very tasty and filling 4 course meal. Worth every penny

First local market visit with many interesting details. Since we were alone in course we were allowed to put together the menu ourselves. Also suitable for vegetarians. Speaks very good English - so we could benefit from a warm exchange in addition to the cooking class. Be sure to book and take home a small piece of Khmer cuisine. Gives tips on how to make dishes with local European ingredients. Wonderful cooking class with delicious conclusion! Many thanks to the whole team! The restaurant can also be visited without a cooking class.

That was such a beautiful experience in Cambodia! We have had many cooking classes before in Asia, but Coconut Lyly is one of our favourites. First of all, you don’t only get food and recipes. You get a chance to learn more about the culture, everyday life of people living here, what makes them happy, what makes them sad, how different our realities can be. It’s incredibly moving and these talks will stay forever in our hearts, making us reflect on our lives. You also get a very individual treatment during the class - the hosts take care of you, answer many of your questions, pay a lot of attention to hygiene, potential health issues which may disturb your experience, so it’s really nice to be in a place which is still very people-oriented, not commercialized like many others cooking schools. But most of all, the cooking class was just super fun! A lot of jokes, laughter, flavors, spices and warmth from Lyly, his wife and their beautiful family. We didn’t feel like strangers there - after few minutes they made us feel like a part of their community and it was so, so great! After eating all the stuff we had cooked, we could barely move, no food needed until next day. Very, very fair portions and service for the price paid. Highly recommended and I would love to come back again to this place filled with love, laughter and flavor. Go and check yourself!

We had a really great experience at our cooking class at Coconut Lyly. Kindly greeted by Lyly himself, he took us all down to the local market and showed gave us some local knowledge about produce and products. Lyly explained so many processes! He took us to buy the freshest coconut milk one could ever buy. When we got back his beautiful wife took over from there. She was so funny, a great sense of humour and a really captivating, great teacher. We made fish amok, green mango salad, veggie spring rolls and coconut desert. Everything was delicious. I would highly recommend this class! A must do in Battambang.

This was a wonderful experience. Staff were friendly informative and happy to share their knowledge of Cambodian cuisine. The experience included a visit to the local market followed by the preparation and cooking of numerous dishes. I highly recommend Coconut Lyly.

Super experience. We booked 1 1/2 hour in advance and it was no problem. Lyly and family are incredibly welcoming and fun and just really good company. The trip to the market at first was interesting and then Lyly is just a spasmager ↓ Back in the restaurant we made great food in the company of the whole family. So lovely afternoon and evening. Can be highly recommended.

What a fantastic experience when visiting Battambang. Lyly took us to the local market and explained the different produce and Sokkim taught us how to cook 3 savory and 1 dessert. Made us look like professionals and the flavors were amazing. Highly recommend to visit and experience something different on your travels. All for only $15 per person. Bargain!! You can’t have a 4 course meal for that, and you get to learn how to cook it too. Loved it!!

A nice afternoon at the family-run Coconut Lyly restaurant Joint market visit with the boss, then a 3-course Khmer-style meal prepared with the family manager. A very authentic experience with a very gracious family - the food was excellent:-)
