We learned so much. The cooking school is beautiful. It's situated next to a rice field, surrounded by nature. Opo and her family are wonderful. The food was absolutely delicious. We had so much fun. A memory for life! We highly recommend this cooking course to everyone.
It was a wonderful experience. Everything was beautiful and delicious. You can tell that they do it with passion and a lot of love. You just feel really comfortable and have a lot to laugh about.
I had an amazing time in Thia cooking class. The owners are the sweetest person ever. We went to the market for the ingredients she explained everything to us. Then during the cooking class she was very nice and gave super detailed explanations of how we need to do everything. You choose between 3 dishes each time for each theme so the experience is personalized to your personal taste. The place was so beautiful, quiet and peaceful, counters are handmade by the owner. I had a rally great time and would recommend this class to everyone who’s going in chiang mai !
Opal is a wonderful host who made the entire cooking class experience truly enjoyable. It started with a visit to the local market to pick out fresh ingredients, which was a fun and insightful way to learn about Thai produce. Opal speaks excellent English and explained everything clearly and with a warm, friendly attitude. The cooking space itself is quiet and relaxing, set in a beautiful area with a pond full of ducks that was lovely to watch while cooking. A great blend of learning, culture, and peaceful surroundings—highly recommended!
First going to the local market to learn about the ingredients, and then heading to the cooking school to prepare the dishes. Opal and her husband Ten are really kind and enthusiastic; they truly love cooking and run the school with all their heart. Everything tasted amazing. We highly recommend this cooking school!
Would definitely make sure to do this if you are in Chiang Mai. We were recommended Sukjai cooking school by a friend who is a chef and we loved every minute. A friendly, fun and interesting day - lovely people and brilliant fun. Opal taught us to make the most delicious dishes and managed expertly to cater to all age ranges and cooking skills. We can’t recommend this highly enough!
