About

Hi there, my name is Suthida, but everyone calls me by my nickname "Chef Aey".

My mother, who was a chef for 45 years, taught me the secrets of her Thai cooking. I used to own a restaurant and I have been working abroad for 2 years as a cook and manager of a Thai restaurant in Brazil.

Back in Thailand I have been teaching cooking for many years. I'm proud to share my experience and Thai recipes that were passed down generation to generation with people from around the world who are passionate about food and cooking.

"Everything and more! Super authentic & surprise solo cooking class"

I love to cook so I decided to take a Thai cooking class in Bangkok and I was attracted by the "localness" of this cooking class. Chef Aey was able to accommodate my last minute booking and I was surprised to find out that it would be a class with only me! She took me to her local market where I'm pretty sure I was the only non-local person there, explained all the different vegetables, fruits, meats and herbs. I didn't even know there were so many different types of "ginger". I was able to smell everything and understand why each ingredient is used in each dish. This class is much better than other cooking classes I've been to because it was in her humble home and she was such a gracious host, there also wasn't 10 other students and you actually get to cook and prepare your own food instead of pre-prepared steps by the chef. She took her time to explain how dishes are made and named... plus gave me some local desserts to try too! Everything I made also tasted so good! This was such an authentic experience which left me with a greater appreciation for cooking, Thai food and culture! I can't wait to make the dishes at home again.

"Super Erfahrung"

Der Kochkurs bei Chef Aey war eine tolle Erfahrung. Wir haben bei Ihr sehr viel neues lernen können und man merkt, dass sie die Kurse mit sehr viel Herzblut macht. Sowohl beim Marktbesuch als auch beim Kochen selbst hat sie uns viel Hintergrundwissen mitgeben können. Durch ihre sympathische Art haben wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt und wir können einen Kochkurs bei ihr wärmstens empfehlen! Die Gerichte, die wir gekocht haben, waren wirklich lecker. Am besten bringt man auch genug Hunger mit, da die Gerichte in ordentlichen Portionen gekocht werden, was wir sehr positiv fanden.

"Amazing thai cooking class"

The food we made was delicious! Chef Aey and I went to the market to buy the majority of the produce fresh. Since I'm vegetarian, she adapted the entire menu to that and explained what I could substitute for the meat and fish ingredients in regular thai dishes. We made tom yum soup with mushrooms, pad thai with tofu, green curry with tofu and mango sticky rice. I can only recommend her class, as she mixes her knowledge of cooking with vast explanations of the ingredients. I am happy I joined this class 🤩

"Amazing Thai Cuisine Experience with Aye!"

Cooking Activity with Aye was just amazing. Trust me - You need to make this great experience when visit bangkok! In the morning you are going to buy all ingredients from a fresh local market. Aye is going to explain you everything about the herbs, spices, vegetables, types of rice and thai food in general. She is the expert in thai food. You will have a lot of fun, good conversation and dishes cooked by yourself like in a gourmet restaurant! The smell and taste was soooo delicious. This women cooks with so much love and happiness - Highly recommended! I will come back as soon as I am in Bangkok.

"Superb"

It was the most comprehensive in technique of cooking class I've ever had. Worth to repeat!
