The dishes we prepared were authentic, flavorful, and surprisingly easy to recreate. I loved that we learned not just recipes, but also cooking techniques and the cultural stories behind each dish. Everything we cooked tasted amazing. It was personal, well-paced, and full of genuine hospitality. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Luang Prabang. Thank-you Nid and Mike it was a pleasure meeting you.
Wonderful experience with my cousin and sistef ! Nid is charming as her place. It is quiet and you can do cooking class or pottery. Or just come for a coffee. I recommend it 100%
This is a really authentic Lao cooking experience in a beautiful setting. We had a fantastic time with Nid and Noi, who speak excellent English. We were picked up from hotel and went to the market before cooking with them at their house - they were super patient with my 2 kids who said this was the highlight of their time in Luang Prabang. The boys made sticky rice, laab, tomato dip, salad and dessert. All beautifully presented by them too. The house is a beautiful example of reclaimed wood, and the coffee there is also excellent. It’s close to the Nam Kham in a lovely quiet village. Chatting with Nid and Noi was also a highlight - super friendly and interesting. We will come back next trip to LP! Khob Chai Lai Lai
I had the best time with Nid and Noy at P70 pottery and candle making class. They were both very supportive and provided me with tremendous patience and encouragement. I gained a new skill and I definitely recommend P70 Pottery, cooking and candle making as a must do in Luang Prabang Please check out my YouTube channel @NWAY-IGWE, I have posted few video clips of my pottery making at P70 Pottery cooking and candle making. Cheers
