Fabulous experience
Fantastic experience!!! Fabulous cooking class and market tour (walking distance). Teacher was excellent and very entertaining. Made 5 dishes, all so delishes and received cookbook to take home. You have to do this when in Bangkok. Our son did this 5 years ago and enjoyed it very much and recommended this one. So many different cooking class options, but Silom Thai cooking school just nailed it!

Skip the other schools. Come here.
Plane (our instructor) was amazing. She was funny, engaging, thorough, and a delight to expierence the market and cook with. The food was delicious even food I don't typically enjoy (Pad Thai was the best I've ever had). And it's in air conditioning. I can't recommend this enough.
