Well, we attended the Lanta Thai Cookery School, Phra-Ae, Koh Lanta, Krabi! Meeting our teacher she was competent in English, patient and knowledgeable! We were provided with our own cookbook containing some 16 receipts. You also eat what you make which makes for a 4 course Thai meal included in your price! The cool sits up their own working restaurant so cold beverages are at your fingertips! Provided with the freshest of ingredients, taught techniques and local knowledge ensures you walk away at least with some increased abilities 😂
It’s about a 4 hour class, your provided with an apron and everything you may need!

We came for our honeymoon and are so glad we included this cooking school on our itinerary. We did the dinner course, and our teacher was so sweet and also pretty funny. We were there from 4-8pm and learned how to make 4 dishes out of the 10 that were available for the group to choose. We made Golden Bags with Chicken and Prawns, Seafood in Tamarind Sauce, Massaman Curry with Chicken, and Stir Fried Seafood with Sweet & Sour Sauce. All were delicious! We had some people in our group with food allergies and some that preferred different spice levels, and they were easily able to accommodate the differences, even though we were all making the same thing. We learned about a lot of the ingredients we were using, too, and what we could use to substitute with at home if we couldn't find specific Thai ingredients. Between each dish we learned, we sat at a beautiful table and ate them together. The restaurant below the school also has a bar that you can order drinks from while taking the class, and we were all sent home with a cook book of not only the things we made while there, but of all 10 options that we had to choose from. I highly recommend coming here, we'll definitely be back someday!

Wow! What an experience! My Mom and I loved every second of it. Very organized and experienced team. All of our teachers had been super friendly and great. We could ask all of the questions we wanted and they answered it with passion. We visited the Lunch class and learned 4 disches. But for a little additional charge we were able to learn another dish! We would recommend this class to anyone who loved Thai cuisine and is curious to learn and of course - loves to cook! Thanks again to the great team!
Tipp: visit their restaurant right downstairs „The Garden“ - one of the best breakfasts on Ko Lanta!

Our decision to do the Thai Cooking Class with teacher Prim and teacher Sun was the best we could have done. We booked a private class and had the opportunity to choose four courses out of twenty. The were both so nice and patient and explained a lot about the food and the way to prepare it. You will get two little cook books to take notes and write down all the secrets about the Thai Cousine. We would definitely recommend that class. Thank you so much again!!

A friend and I went here for an evening class. It was wonderful! It ended up being just the two of us. We were able to pick four dishes to make, but upgraded to 5 for an extra cost. Every dish was absolutely delicious and well explained. They provided a recipe book of every dish, not just the ones you chose. There was wine and beer for purchase as well and free drinking water, tea, and coffee. Beginners to advanced, this class if for anyone. Thank you!

Because of rainy weather we decided to do a Thai cooking class and the Lanta Thai Cookery school took us in just the same day, although we were the only students! It was so lovely! Sunny was our teacher, she was funny, kind and explained every ingredient and step. For the 4h class we could choose 4 dishes from a menu. We even got our own little cooking book with all the recipes!!! We highly recommend to do a class here. It was sooooo tasty and yummy!!

Together with my family we booked a private class for 4 people. It was a fantastic and learning cooking class. A local teacher who very nice and fluent in english. We felt as real chefs and made the best dishes we have had on the entire vacation. We learned a lot about thai food cooking that we will use at home.

Participated in the morning session from 10:00 to 14:00. Picked up from my hotel by the owner. There were eight in total in our class and the first order of the day was to decide upon which four dishes to cook. Moved on immediately to a discussion about the key herbs and vegetables we would use. Lovely group of people.
Teachers were excellent - knowledgable, fun and approachable. We each had our own cooking station.
From start to finish the day was excellent. I learned a lot from this course, and I cannot wait to go home and try out some of the dishes.
As a good home cook, I learned a lot.
I highly recommend this course.

This is one of my favourite activities we've done so far on our trip.
I did the course with my 11 year old daughter and as it was low season it was just the 2 of us.
Our teacher was brilliant and really took the time with my daughter to help her and explain the different ingredients being used.
We made 4 absolutely delicious dishes which I will absolutely be making again!
The setting is also lovely, with the fresh herb gardens just below you.
A brilliant morning well spent. Thank you 🙏
