Hands on Thai Cooking Class e Tour de Mercado

If you’re looking for an authentic experience in Bangkok, don’t miss House of Taste Cooking School. Our instructor, Bense, was outstanding! He was welcoming, knowledgeable, patient, and made the entire class both fun and easy to follow. We prepared four delicious Thai dishes, including a flavorful Thai curry, a classic Thai stir fry, and one of Thailand’s most iconic desserts—mango sticky rice. Bense did a wonderful job explaining the ingredients, cooking techniques, and how to recreate each dish at home. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, the class was hands-on from beginning to end, and the atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable. It was the perfect combination of learning, cooking, and enjoying authentic Thai cuisine. This was much more than just a cooking class—it was a cultural experience and one of the highlights of my visit to Bangkok. I highly recommend House of Taste Cooking School, and if you have the opportunity to learn from Bense, you’re in for a fantastic experience!

This is the first time I've done a cooking class while traveling abroad but it won't be the last. Learning about the different varieties of spices, cooking styles, and reasons why they cook certain dishes was fascinating. Our chef was extremely knowledgeable about her culture and how to prepare the dishes. I would definitely recommend this class for anyone visiting. I

Bense our cooking host was friendly, cheerful and very informative. She shared her knowledge of the ingredients in each dish we prepared and taught us how to prepare those ingredients. Bense also guided us in the cooking process in the wok. I enjoyed that I was involved in the entire process of the dish. It was a real " hands on authentic experience", that I thoroughly enjoyed.

This cooking class was hands down our favorite experience of the entire trip! If you're visiting, don't miss it. April was an incredible instructor—she was funny, spoke excellent English, and explained every step so clearly that everyone could follow along with confidence. She made the class fun, interactive, and informative while teaching us about the ingredients, techniques, and local cuisine. The class had about 10–15 people, which was the perfect size to keep it engaging without feeling crowded. Most of the experience took place in air-conditioned spaces, making it very comfortable. They were also happy to adapt the recipes for a variety of dietary restrictions, so everyone could participate and enjoy the meal. The food we made was absolutely delicious, and it was so satisfying to sit down and enjoy everything we had prepared. As a bonus, they provided recipes for many of the dishes at the end, so we can recreate them at home. This was our #1 favorite activity of the trip, and we can't recommend it highly enough. If you're considering this class, book it—you won't regret it!

Awesome host, food and experience, highly recommend

Very knowledgeable instructor. Loved the fact that she makes jokes too. Thanks for a lovely experience Bense. 100/100 recommend!

Incredible morning cooking class with Bense . Her sense of humour and positive energy helped make this one of the highlights of the trip. These are small classes with excellent food supplies . We made 3 entrees and one dessert over a 3 1/2 hour period . I had lots of question which Bense answered . I did the class with my 29 , 25 and 24 year old boys and they loved it.
