It was amazing! She is sick of Israelis, but the atmosphere and the cooking are very Thai. Great fun and really educational activity. We enjoyed it to the max!
תודה רבה על המילים החמות! שמחנו לשמוע שנהניתם מהאווירה התאילנדית, מהבישול ומהלמידה יחד עם פני. איזה כיף שהחוויה הייתה גם מצחיקה וגם טעימה! נשמח לארח אתכם שוב, ומקווים שתיהנו להכין את המנות גם בבית. Siam Scape Journeys
A fantastic experience, from being picked up from our resort, to the warm greeting when we arrived, being able to choose what Thai dishes from the menu to cook, having the wonderful and entertaining Penny who shared her skills and passion for Thai food and then to finish off, enjoying the delicious food that we created. We did not leave hungry!
Thank you for your lovely review! We’re delighted Penny’s warmth, humor, and passion helped make the class special. Choosing your dishes and enjoying the food you prepared sounds like a delicious way to spend the day. We hope you enjoy cooking those favorites again at home. Siam Scape Journeys
I can’t speak highly enough of my experience at Penny Thai. My husband and I have only done a couple of cooking classes previously but Penny has now set the bar high. Not only was it extremely well organised; from communication, to pick up, to the running of the class. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. Penny is one of the loviest ladies you will ever meet. Also, you don’t all have to cook the same thing! There are three courses (not including desert) and each course has three options and you can all pick differently. And it ran so perfectly smooth, I couldn’t fault it. Oh, and you can buy beer, drink and cook 🍻👩🍳 So if you want a great cooking class in Krabi, I highly recommend Penny Thai Cooking Class.
Thank you for this wonderful review of your time with Penny! We’re delighted you both felt so welcome and enjoyed choosing your own dishes in such a smoothly organised class. It means a lot that the experience stood out among your cooking adventures. Siam Scape Journeys
Very educational! Five courses I had to choose. What I couldn't eat, I had to take with me. Clean and tidy. Very nice teacher! Highly recommended!💕
Tack för din varma rekommendation! Vad roligt att du uppskattade den tydliga undervisningen och möjligheten att välja fem rätter. Vi är glada att du trivdes med läraren och kunde ta med dig det goda som blev över! Siam Scape Journeys
We had such an amazing time cooking with Penny! She was witty, kind, and an excellent chef! Every detail and ingredient was thoroughly explained, and we enjoyed being able to make independent recipes for each person. We would highly recommend Penny to others looking for a one of a kind cooking lesson!
Thank you for your warm recommendation! We’re delighted Penny’s humour and clear explanations made the class so enjoyable. It’s wonderful you appreciated choosing your own recipes and learning the details behind each ingredient. Siam Scape Journeys
