Thai Cooking School in Aonang

This three-hour class covers six traditional Thai dishes, with instructors walking through technique rather than rushing a single recipe. You pick your own ingredients and herbs before moving to the stove in small groups — lemongrass, galangal, and chillies come up often, depending which six dishes you’re assigned that day.

Classes run in English only and cap at ten people, so there’s room for the instructor to correct your knife work or wok technique individually. Bottled water is provided throughout, and the price includes both a lunch and dinner sitting once the cooking’s done — you eat what you make.

Insider Tip: The highlights list doesn’t specify which six dishes you’ll cook — ask when you book if you have allergies or strong preferences, since the line-up isn’t fixed.

Rated 5.0 from 55 reviews, with free cancellation up to 24 hours before the class starts.
