You will visit a local market and get to know some secrets of Khmer culture. Afterwards, Lily & Chris will welcome you to their traditional Khmer family house in Siem Reap countryside, only 5 minutes from town for a relaxed introduction to home-style Cambodian Cuisine. There you will experience a 100% hands-on cooking class and able to cook this way again back home with Lily’s Secret Garden Cookbook. And at last but not least, you will enjoy the delicious meal you created step by step at Lily’s home, whatever your level of cooking is!
Children under 8 years old (toddler included) can also join this class for only $5. Each kid that is not cooking will get 1 spot/seat for sharing the activity, the meal and the transport. Each kid that is not involved in cooking will enjoy a welcome drink and can access to a free flow of water and tea like any other participants. Some kids can also benefit from special attention/care if they're not cooking (we've got toys are available, and our son can play with them under adults responsibility, a safe garden area, etc). From toddlers to granny, everyone can be a part of our secret garden.

Chris and his wife Lily are the nicest hosts you can imagine. We've enjoyed the cooking class a lot. Even the short trip to the market was nice even though we do not like markets usually. The meals were easy to prepare but still a nice challenge for non-cambodians. And you learn easy recipes to try again at home. The chef was such a fun guy! Had a great time all in all. You even receive a nice certificate for competing the course to frame and hang up in your kitchen at home ;)

"Great cookery afternoon!"
This was a wonderful afternoon and a great thing to do during your stay in Siem Reap.
We were a small group of 6 and started off with a short time at a local market. Chris filled us in with all sorts of tips and information about buying local produce and then drove us out to his home where we had the class. The chef was cheery and so informative, again sharing lots of tips - including alternative ingredients to find at home - and ideas on local food and how to get the best form the flavours. We prepared a delicious 3 course meal which we then ate in the lovely garden.

"Great way to learn about Cambodian cuisine"
It's hard to find an authentic way to connect with others when you're half a world away and have no friends or connections in the country you're visiting.
That's part of what made Lily's Secret Garden cooking class so much fun. With our guide Chris, we toured a local market, gathered the ingredients we'd need to make a tasty lunch, and met a couple from Hong Kong who shared our excitement for cooking.
If you're visiting Siem Reap, Angkor Wat is a must. But, a great way to round out your cultural experience of this town is to participate in this cooking class.

"Fantastic class"
This class was great. We had a very informative trip to the market first and new food was explained and we gathered ingredients for the day. We even got to try the cooked crickets - crunchy but a bit hard to get the legs down. We cooked spring rolls a stir fry and two deserts ,so we tried a variety of food and there was a vegetarian option. This was a small group so we had plenty of attention. The food was delicious and our hosts were wonderful. I would highly recommend this activity.

Chris, our guide provided an informative tour through the local market, showing the different produce while getting the ingredients for our class. Darwin, our chef guided us through the cooking class effortlessly, always with a smile. At the end, we even recieved a cookbook and a certificate!

Chris, his wife and their team really run a slick operation. Their small classes are fantastic and make it a really intimate occasion with a lot of time to chat, have fun and get to know the other people a lot better.
The tour of the local market was great and always good to see.

"Lovely Experience!"
Lily's Secret Garden cooking experience is really nicely done. Communication beforehand is very prompt, and all my questions were answered. It's nice to be picked up and dropped back off to a central convenient location, which removes the tension of searching for directions around town. The local market shopping for fresh ingredients is very interesting and informative. The Secret Garden itself is like an oasis in the hectic little town of Soem Reap, and everything there is well equipped, organized, and comfortable. Chef Darwin is not only very knowledgeable and skilled, but he's also a kind and lovely soul. I learned a lot about Cambodian culture and their cooking, and enjoyed a great meal as well. Vegan adjustments were not a problem,

"Informative and fun market trip and cooking class"
Chris gave our small group of 6 people an educational visit to the local market where Chris bought our supplies for the cooking class as well as educating us on all sorts of things Cambodians eat including fried insects (not at all compulsory for us squeamish westerners). The class at Chris and Lily's house was a hoot, and with a bit of help we all managed to make a decent lunch.
I'd highly recommend doing the class with Lily's if you can fit half a day into your Siem Reap schedule.

"Cooking Class at Lily's Garden"
The overall experience was immensely cultural. Cooking and tasking cambodian food was a really amazing experience. Our tour guide, Chris, explained everything that we asked in the local market. He really made an effort to explain the context of everything and made us taste fried insects which was really cool. Darwin, our chef, was very patient in telling us the instructions. He made sure that we are doing the right thing, right measurement of ingredients. They are all very welcoming to their guests. Our food tasted magical! I'm a beginner in cooking and their style of teaching did not intimidate me. Thank you for the wonderful experience! Til the next!

"Great morning spent in the market and cooking Khmer cuisine"
Meeting Chris at the Hard rock was easy. Tuk tuk around town $3 usd one way. Arrived early at hard rock and Chris was waiting for us. Jumped into his tuk tuk and headed to the market for an educational experience shopping. Once the items from the list bought headed to his house to meet chef Darwin. Great fun to prepare 3 dishes. We were a small group of 5. The instructions were easy to follow and the meal was wonderful. Arrived back at Hard rock by 1230pm. They gave us a recipe book and certificate of completion. We also received some photos via email after. Great fun.

"Excellent- personalised & hands on"
We had a small group (just the 2 of us).
Pick up by Chris in tuk tuk was a good start - met us with water & fresh fruit to snack on.
He took us to local produce markets & explained local currency, cuisine, produce & general lifestyle.
Then we arrived at the location for Lily’s cooking class, led by Darwin. He was very welcoming, calming, thorough & attentive in his instruction on the 3 dishes we prepared. He also took some good photos (attached) of us while we got our hands dirty... so to speak.
My partner & I both enjoyed the market experience plus learning to cook / prepare some new dishes, but of course the best part was eating them! Yummo!

"Delicious & excellent value for money"
Chris picked us up from our hostel and drove us to the nearby market for ingredients. He was really knowledgable about local customs & produce. After we had bought everything we needed (which only took 10 minutes) we headed to the cooking school - a gorgeous outside kitchen located in the garden of their house - hence the name “Lily’s Secret Garden”
Our chef, Darwin, was really friendly and explained all steps of the recipes very clearly. We made fresh spring rolls, Lort Cha fried noodles with chicken and finally
Pumpkin in coconut sweet cream.
The food was delicious, the atmosphere was super relaxed and we were also given a cook book to take away with us - not to mention our certificates!
Highly recommended!

Our chef instructor was also very good, and seemed to know the flavours of our dishes inside and out, knowing when to add more spices or seasonings (and doing so), and asking our preferences to make our dishes more to our individual tastes. Great class overall, not a bad price, I would highly recommend it.

Chris is very personable and did a great job explaining the different fruits/veggies we saw in the market, how much they should cost etc. At their lovely home, we met chef Darwin, who taught us how to prepare three dishes, a green papaya and chicken salad, chicken red curry and a yummy banana in coconut cream dessert. (We did not meet Lily as she was working in their in town restaurant). We all (we are a family of 4) really enjoyed this fun, hands on, experience and our food was delicious, ample and authentic.

"The Secret Experience"
Genuine happiness from my family from this cooking adventure. We were gladly picked up from our hotel as we requested and then we got to visit the local market. The secrets of Khmer culture were diversity and their preserved techniques in cooking. Lily and Chris were kind enough to welcome us to their traditional Khmer family house in Siem Reap countryside which is 5 minutes from town. They also introduced us to home-style hands on Cambodian Cuisine cooking.

"Fun, clean, well organized, friendly, but very basic"
Everything was awesome: the crew was friendly, the kitchen was very clean and the food was pretty tasty.
However, this was a very beginner class. What took us 2 hours to prepare, would normally take 20 minutes. So, anyone with a greater than basic cooking skill may find this class a bit tedious.
The market tour was the highlight of the afternoon.
In the end it was fun, but just know this is geared for the beginner. Actually, this would be a great course for kids!

"Excellent experience learning to cook Cambodian food"
My daughter and I had a wonderful experience taking a cooking class at Lily's Secret Garden. Chris, the co-founder, walked us through the local market (Samaki) to buy all the ingredients. After the market tour, we went to Chris house. There's a very nice kitchen setup in the courtyard outside the house. We prepared three tasty Cambodian dishes. My daughter is 8yo and this was her first time preparing a meal from start (shopping for ingredients) to finish. What a great experience!

"Absolutely fabulous!!!!!"
We travel with our teams to SEA often and have done various cooking classes over time. This one was brilliant!!
The tour through the market was informative and relational.
The class itself was personal, and we felt like we achieved a lot in the time in such a simple way. Great teaching, delicious food and the recipes are completely reproducible here in Australia, which is important.
10 out of 10!!!!
We will definitely take more teams here:)))

"Well Organized & Tasty!"
My mother and I enjoyed the class immensely. Starting in the market was a great idea as it gave us a great insight into the local method of obtaining groceries and was a true sensory experience. The cooking class' kitchen was clean, well organized, and wonderfully efficient. The chef was incredibly patient and fun to learn from with well spoken English. Unlike other classes we've had, each student got to cook their own meal so one of the gluten-free students didn't have to be concerned with cross-contamination. I highly recommend the course!

"Great fun! And the food was soo good!"
My partner and I (both from NZ) had a great time at Lilly’s Secret Garden! We were picked up from our accommodation by Chris (Lilly’s husband) who was very friendly, accommodating and very knowledgeable. He took us to a local food market to grab a few ingredients we were going to be using, explained how the markets worked, gave us a tour of some of the different stalls and also a good run down on various fruits and vege’s in a fun and interactive way. Once we arrived at the secret garden we were greeted by Chef Darwin who was great (very funny sense of humour) and his knife skills were crazy good! We were laughing pretty much the whole time! I don’t want to give too much away but if you are looking for something fun to do whilst in Cambodia and with the added bonus of some yummy food at the end we would highly recommend going along Lilly’s secret garden!! Good times all round. Thanks.

The start of the morning was great, Chris took us through the market and explaining in details what were the products and how they're used.
The setup at their place is lovely, but then Chris left, and someone else gave the actual cooking class - which became a lot less insightful. The food prepared was good but fairly basic.
Overall a nice experience, but the cooking & food itself could be a little more special!

The class was limited to only 6 people, which provided an intimate setting for learning about Cambodia cuisine while having great conversation with the other participants. The food that we made was superb and all of the kitchen supplies and utensils were clean and like-new. We would definitely recommend this class to anybody interested in learning about Cambodian cuisine in a fun way.... The visit to the market to purchase some ingredients was also a nice experience - we were able to learn about ingredients that are native to this region of the globe. 5 stars overall!

Everyone sits down together to eat at the end - so full by the end!

This was my first activity as soon as I arrived in Siem Reap and I had a great afternoon going a bit around town and then cooking and eating at Lily's Secret Garden. Chris and Lily are both lovely and really friendly. Little Austin was also happy to see us :) The class was easy to follow and fun.
I was just a bit disappointed that in the afternoon class' market tour was not really long, since most of the stalls at the market are closed. It would be helpful to add this into the class description, so anyone interested in a more detailed and full market experience they should go for a morning class.
The recipe book is also great and will soon be making a Khmer dinner for my friends :)
Thank you Lilly, Chris and Austin for this great experience!

This was by far the best cooking class we have tried! You get picked up by Chris and he shows you around in this really local marked which was great fun! After that you go to their home where they have a very nice outdoor kitchen with great facilities. You feel very at home and lily and her staff are very nice ;-)
The level of cooking is good - it is not too hard but also not too easy. We really enjoyed our time in Lily's secret garden and would definitely recommend it to others! And as a bonus you get a certificate and a cook book, which is really good so that you can try to cook the meals at home.
