Mai was an absolutely wonderful cook that taught us a lot about Thai cooking. Her trip to the market to pick our cooking ingredients was very informative, and she was very patient and kind in teaching us. We plan to make her recipes once we return home.
A very friendly and professional experience
My cooking class was amazing!!! The experience started with a guided tour of the market where we selected spices for the recipes. The cooking teacher shared several interesting anecdotes about the market, Thai food, and Buddhist beliefs. Then, we cooked 4 Thai recipes: the famous pad thai, green curry with chicken, sweet and sour Tom Yum soup, and mango sticky rice! We also learned to make green curry paste. The cooking teacher was very attentive, pedagogical, kind, funny, and warm. At the end of the class, I even received a Thai cooking certificate. I recommend this cooking class with Maliwan without hesitation!
We had a wonderful time at this cooking class! It was so cool to get to go to a wet market and buy some of our cooking supplies ourselves and we think it was a great value for our money. We made so many Thai dishes and this was a great way to end our trip to Bangkok!
Good instruction and fun. Learned a lot about Thai cuisine and ingredients.
Such a fun experience. The trip to the market was really interesting. The cooking class was top notch. The food prepared was delicous, and so well presented. Overall, one of my favorite experiences.
Great experience! The staff was kind and helpful. The market trip was very interesting, and the tuk tuk ride was an added bonus surprise. We very much enjoyed the experience, and the food turned out great!
One of the best things I have done in Bangkok. The market shopping at the start was informative. The entire time I was provided with water and there is an air conditioned room to eat in at the end. I found the whole morning to be really fun and interesting. We made 4 different dishes. There was too much to eat in one go but we were all able to take the leftovers away. Every dish was delicious as we were able to season to our own tastes. I will definitely be making these again when I get home.
Great experience. Very nice host. It was a pleasure for us to visit a market, to hear interesting stories about food, Thai kitchen. Thank you for this time!
Very informative, hands on cooking class
