Unlike standard cooking classes, this experience is completely personalized. Each guest receives 200 THB to shop at a local market with the chef, choosing exactly which dishes they want to prepare. That means no two classes are ever the same — even couples often cook different recipes! With expert guidance, fresh ingredients you handpick yourself, and the freedom to design your own menu, this is more than a cooking class. It’s a cultural journey where every participant creates a unique Thai food story to take home.
