There are plenty of cooking classes available in Thailand, not just in Bangkok. Some specialize in vegetarian fares, while some even gives you a tour of the Thai markets, so you’d know how to pick the freshest ingredients.
I picked Thai Kitchen. I picked this particular class because I am a sucker for good looking websites. Shallowness aside, I liked that they don’t have the market tour (for I hate going to the wet market), and it’s fairly easy to get to (just a short walk from the Saladaeng BTS station).
The recipes differ each day, so you can choose which day you’d want to attend, depending on your own schedule and food preference. I opted to attend the Friday class, as I wanted to learn how to cook pad thai. They had a promo then, and instead of paying THB2,000 for the class, I only had to pay THB1,000.
The instructor was very professional and encourages us to ask questions. He started the class by introducing us to the common herbs and ingredients used in Thai cuisine like galangal palm sugar and kaffir lime leaves.
If you’re headed to Bangkok, set aside a morning and some moolah for a Thai cooking class. It’d definitely worth it!
