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 🤩

The format was unlike any other class bc everyone is cooking their own menu of choice! You’d think this would be cause for chaos but the school has perfected the timing and procedure of all of it, so class runs smoothly and efficiently! Everyone not only successfully and easily pulled off all their own dishes but we also got to tag team on pounding the curry paste which was fun! I liked how everything was preportioned on trays and we just focused on slicing/dicing all the ingredients and wok-ing.

Nam greeted our group at a central subway station and from the first moment made everyone comfortable and excited to be there. The market tour was wondrous, and Nam showed us the best way to choose ingredients, pointed out new and Interesting products, and kept the tour fun and efficient. We then went back to her house, where everything was perfectly organized and set up for us to learn, prepare and enjoy 4 traditional Thai dishes. Her engaging humor (spoken in excellent English) coupled with insightful tips and facts about Ingradients and dishes made the afternoon go quickly and most of us didn't want it to end. Each of the 4 dishes we prepared and ate were outstanding! We were almost too full to bother with dinner later that day. We would highly recommend this addition to any Bangkok itinerary.

Very lovely cook, enjoyed the shopping tour on an authentic food market and the relaxed athmosphäre. (: thanks to Aye

The instructor was very nice and his explanations were easy and helpful. I learned so much about the different ingredients and the outcoming was fantastic. 10/10 would recommend and definitely do again! Thank you :)

Tres bon moment avec l’équipe. Team très investi et locaux très propre. Nous avons d’abord fait une visite du marché local avec découverte des différentes épices et herbes utilisées dans la cuisine Thaï. Nous avons ensuite préparé un curry puis 3 recettes, dégustées en fin de cours. A faire sans hésiter

The staff was excellent. Quality supplies, and helpful teacher. They had a support staff to make sure everything was perfect. The food was actually incredible, and not only did we learn a lot, we left full.

What an experience! The teachers were professional, fun and very helpful. The class was well organized with good demonstration and individual hands-on experience. Food and menu was fantastic- appetizer, entre and dessert. All the dishes were delicious and plentiful. I had a terrific experience- watching good demos and preparing authentic Thai cuisine. I am sure I will be preparing all the recipes in the souvenir book. Beyond expectation! Thank you

The mini tour of the market was nice... learning about the difference between the shrimp and chickens. But the class was done so well! The beautiful presentation of ingredients and the constant flow from class room to cooking...it was great! And our instructor Ju...she was funny but had so much great information too! We would recommend a class with Silom to everyone!

I love Thai food and I have attended several cooking classes before. Cooking with Poo and friends is simply the best. Due to the charming and inspiring character of chef Poo, one not only learns a lot about Thai ingredients and spices but also what people can achieve when living their dreams like Poo. Also a big thank to Cookly- you helped me to meet my class after I run late due to the incomparable Bangkok traffic.

Chef Lee, This class was wonderful! The chef Is very engaging and knowledgeable on all aspects of Thai cuisine. I would fully endorse taking this course.

This was the third cooking class I attended in Thailand and it was simply excellent. I had been afraid that I wouldn’t learn a lot of new things but the contrary was the case. It was also a lot of fun! We were picked up by Goong and Nam and went to the most amazing market. That alone made the class worthwhile. But on top of that Goong was full of knowledge about culture and cooking and her sparkling and funny nature made it a sheer joy to listen to her. The cooking instructions were easy to understand and backed up with loads of background knowledge. The quality of the food was fantastic. I can’t recommend this class enough! Thank you for a fantastic time! I’ll be back for sure.

Overall a really fun morning! Great food, lovely atmosphere, easy and accessible for all. Combination of watching demonstrations and some simple instructions to follow. I really enjoyed the short stroll to the market - would have loved to spend more time there. You eat each dish as you make it so it’s essentially a whole morning of eating! Great way to spend a few hours in Bangkok

Our family of 5 (including 3 kids ages 9 to 14) booked a group cooking class for the final day of our holiday and I can honestly say this was the highlight of our entire 3-week Thailand trip for everyone. Nam was warm, funny and a brilliant teacher. The market trip was a highlight and the pace and variety of the class worked perfectly for our varied group. We had originally wanted to book a private class as we didn’t want our kids to spoil anyone else’s experience but as this wasn’t available, we booked the group session. I’m so pleased we did - the other guests were lovely and interesting and just added to our experience. Each dish was delicious, we learned so much and even our very teenage 14-year old son was completely engaged from start to finish. He is now a convert to cooking and enthusiastically talking about what he is going to make for us when we get home. The house is beautiful and a real experience of authentic, residential Bangkok. All-in-all an experience of a lifetime: thank you so much Nam and all at Bangkok cookery house.

This class far exceeded our expectations. What was different about this class from others I've taken is that I learned not only how to cook Thai food, but I learned about the difference between ingredients, what taste each ingredient adds, techniques for cooking, AND how to add garnish and enhance presentation. The cookbook has so much more detail than I expected. I now appreciate that by cooking only 4 dishes in 5 hours, what I gained was skills and education on Thai cooking, not just a cooking experience. Ant has to take a lot of credit for that. She's a marvelous instructor. I highly recommend this class!

This market tour and cooking class was very professionally run and our head chef Helen made everything fun. We learned so much about Thai food and how it’s made and were feasting on so many dishes, we felt full and satisfied when we left. Thank you for an enjoyable morning.

Brilliant step by step explanations of how to make Thai dishes from scratch ! I’ll be back again next time I’m un Bangkok.

The instructor was informative and truly passionate about teaching us about Thai ingredients and cooking techniques! She was engaging, had a great sense of humor and kept the class moving safely through all the techniques she demonstrated which we then we practiced. The food was delicious and we enjoyed the class thoroughly! We will take other classes soon to become more familiar with Thai cooking in such a pleasant and welcoming environment.

I cannot express the amount of detail and education that is shared in your Thai Cuisine cooking class. Everything is taught on a traditional culture level and not a textbook. My Chef Professor “Nancy” is a delight to be around, with a tremendous personality and great humor. She teaches on a high level of expertise and explained everything thoroughly and made sure all questions are answered as well as understood. University level English with great communication. It was obvious that her entire class was made to feel this way. Highly recommend this cooking school and if Nancy’s class is not full, your lucky, reserve and Take It! Morning class includes a bonus of local Market shopping with more education. They also offer different menus so you can take multiple classes and improve your education in Thai food. 👍👍🇹🇭

If you're looking for a truly immersive cultural experience with people who deeply care for their craft and their culture then you can stop searching now. Nam met our group of 5 at an easy to find location near a beautiful authentic market. We walked through the stalls picking up this and that ingredients, amazing things I never would have touched or smelled if it wasn't for her guidance. Next we went took a 5 minute Tuk Tuk ride with our fresh ingredients to their home which was laid out beautifully for our group with a prep area, a cooking area with many wok's and stoves and finally a stunning dining area. We cooked and chatted and ate for the next 3 hours. All departed with big smiles and full bellies. Highly recommended!!

I had a good experience cooking with the Bangkok Thai Cooking Academy. The instructor was nice and thorough, and I loved the ability to customize your meal based on your preferences. When you first start, you meet outside of an MRT station, and walk through a traditional market where the guide will talk you through all the essential ingredients for Thai cooking. In the end, you get to enjoy the delicious meal you cooked with your peers. Will recommend to anyone looking to learn Thai dishes!

I highly recommend taking cooking classes here. We met at Huai Khwang MRT station and walked to the market together. Nam explained how to get the best ingredients for Thai dishes. Then we drove to the cooking school in TukTuks. We made Tom Yum Goong, Pad Thai, Panaeng Curry and Mango Sticky Rice. Everything was well organised. Nam showed us step by step how to cook the dishes. She speaks English perfectly and is very humorous and talented. I recommend to not eat before taking this class as you will be eating all the dishes. But if you‘re full before, Nam can give you boxes to take the food home.

We were a group of 4 that attended the class. All of us had a great time. The cooking school brought the market to the cooking class which we appreciated as we had been sightseeing all morning. They explained the various ingredients which was very interesting and then we went on to cooking. All the dishes were fun and relatively easy to make and they tasted very good. We were absolutely stuffed at the end. The entire class was VERY well organized, structured and executed. There was no wasted time. The school team was constantly bringing ingredients, cleaning up, resetting for the next dish. A great experience all around and definitely highly recommend it.

I took the class with my mum and sister and we loved it. It was the best part of our holiday in Bangkok. Pimmy was excellent, she had simple and clear explanations and we loved how she was able to make cooking easier and fun to learn. I also really appreciated her notes on similar products you can get in your home country so your able to replicate the recipes back home. The class was also small and intimate, we were 5 in total for the afternoon class and we really enjoyed meeting other people and just learning from each other and enjoying our appreciation for Thai cuisine. A must do when your in Bangkok

My team did a cooking class with Nam as our team-building event. We expected it to be a good learning class but boy, we did not expect it to be so much fun! Nam is so funny and cracked so much jokes that we were having so much fun while having to "toil away". We took the afternoon class and so weren't expecting a market tour so we were really surprised that she took us on a very informative market tour and send us back on Tuk-tuks. We learnt a lot and really enjoyed the food that we cooked, and most importantly, really enjoyed ourselves.

Our family had a private class and we all enjoyed it. Our teacher Goong was amazing, she was so kind and a great chef and the food she helped us prepare was SO delicious. Our 3 daughters, where the youngest is 10 years, also enjoyed it very much and thought this class was the best thing we did on our vacation. Goong was really patient and helpful and so nice to the children and all our daughters just loved her from the beginning. She speaks good English, so the communication was also easy. The surroundings was authentic Thai and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. We cannot thank you enough for this great experience.

From start to finish, this class was amazing. Our chef/instructor, Nam, took us to the market to pick out some of our ingredients and she was SO sweet and knowledgeable and was able to teach us so many interesting things about the local foods. After that, she helped us prepare 4 amazing dishes. I couldn’t recommend this class more for anyone who is interested in eating/cooking delicious authentic Thai cuisine.

Pimmy has successfully simplified Thai cooking for me. She was very helpful in explaining the pantry essentials and the fresh ingredients needed to recreate your favourite dishes at home She was also patient in explaining and sharing her cooking secrets and skills Highly recommended!

The cook was VERY good at telling and explainings things. She was nice, competente and her english was good. The place was lovely and clean. There was a helper to provide things, so the participants could focus on the important about learning to cook thai food. I can highly recomment this place.

Angsana and her mother put on an excellent cooking class! This is where you'll learn the secrets to traditional Thai cooking along with the shortcuts most modern restaurants take. Every dish here will be done the traditional way, by hand, from scratch. We've been cooking Thai food for years, but this experience changed our entire approach. I highly recommend this class!

This was by far the best cooking experience we’ve ever had (and we’ve had a few)! The two chefs were extremely nice, funny and professional. It felt like spending a wonderful cooking day with friends. The food we prepared was over the moon, I had the best soup of all time. If you’re in any doubt, which of the hundreds courses to chose in Bangkok - chose them! Nam and Gung - thank you very much for this wonderful day we had together!

The class is perfectly organized. The cooking professor (Phai) was great, very friendly and giving precise information about how to do the recipe. The visit of the small market is quick but very interesting to understand how some ingredients are done. I will recommend Somphong Thai Cooking class to all my friends visiting Bangkok.

Meine Tochter (10) und ich hatten einen super Nachmittag mit Pim. Alle Zutaten, Arbeitsschritte wurden uns ausführlich erklärt. Pin macht das auf eine lockere und lustige Art. Jeder Teilnehmer konnte selbst entscheiden, wie scharf sein Gericht sein soll oder Zutaten weglassen. Die selbst zubereiteten Gerichte wurden zusammen gegessen. Im Anschluss haben wir alle Rezepte zum Download bekommen. Würden es jederzeit wieder machen.
