2 hours (approximately)

Good news: pad Thai is not nearly as complicated as your takeout habit has led you to believe. Better news: Chef Krong is about to prove it in the most delicious way possible. In this fun, beginner-friendly cooking class you will learn to make Thailand's national dish from scratch, the whole thing, start to finish, with rice noodles, tofu, bean sprouts, cilantro and lime coming together into something that tastes like it took way more effort than it actually did. Chef Krong walks you through every step with the kind of enthusiasm that makes you wonder why you waited this long to learn. By the time you plate up your finished pad Thai you will be equal parts proud, full and slightly annoyed at every mediocre takeout order you ever settled for. San Diego deserves better. So do you.

You will sharpen your knife skills, get familiar with traditional ingredients like rice noodles, tofu and bean sprouts and learn how to build that perfect balance of sweet, sour, salty and nutty that makes pad Thai so impossibly craveable. Fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime at the end and suddenly you are the kind of person who makes pad Thai from scratch on a weeknight. Look at you go. Casual setting, zero pressure and Chef Krong makes every step feel completely within reach. No experience needed. Just show up hungry.
