Fresh, authentic cooking class. - From start to finish an amazing time. Ann was the best. She picked us up from our hotel and we went to the market to pick up some fresh ingredients. Then back to her house to cook. We made 4 things - holy basil with chicken, green curry with shrimp, a delicious soup with fresh tilapia and green mango salad. All fresh and super yummy. Thoroughly enjoyed this cooking class. Would highly recommend.

Immersive cooking class - Such a great evening with Ann - she is excellent company and very knowledgeable. It was really interesting talking to Ann about which vegetables are easy to grow and the flavours. We absolutely loved the trip to the market to buy the produce and Ann picked a few appetisers for us to try. The food cooked was delicious- even if we do say so ourselves!

Unforgettable Thai Cooking Class with Ann – A Must-Do in Chiang Rai - Have you ever taken a cooking class and thought, “That was nice” or “I am glad we did that”? If so, prepare to raise your expectations because Ann’s cooking class will completely WOW you. We love cooking classes—they are a great way to learn new techniques and tips. However, they often feel impersonal, like just another group passing through. Ann’s class is entirely different. From the moment she picks you up at your hotel, you know this is a special experience. On the way to the market, she asks about your likes, dislikes, preferred dishes, and even how much food you can eat (hint: come hungry—there is a lot!). You then shop together for the freshest ingredients, customizing the experience to your tastes. Ann welcomes you into her beautifully appointed outdoor Thai kitchen at her home, where you will spend the next 2-3 hours preparing and cooking several dishes. These are not pre-set menus; instead, Ann ensures you are making and eating dishes tailored to your preferences. The result is one of the finest dining experiences you will have in Thailand, not just because of the flavors but because it is designed entirely for you. We are experienced with Thai cooking and techniques, yet Ann taught us so many new tips and tricks that we will incorporate into our cooking at home. Her teaching style does not aim to replace what you already know but to enhance it. She adapts to your skill level and personality, making the experience not only educational but also incredibly enjoyable. Thank you, Ann, for an extraordinary cooking class. This experience should be on everyone’s bucket list when visiting Chiang Rai. Khop khun krub!

Immerse in Thai cuisine - Ann is absolute experienced and passionate about the Thai culture and cuisine. The visite to the market to get the right ingredients was very interesting! She showed us some local ingredients and dishes! Then we cooked delicious pad krapao and Tom Kha, along with Spring rolls. I recommed this unique experience with Ann⭐️💚

great activity for every food fanatic - If you like cooking and Thai food, this is for you! In this private cooking class you get to prepare a three-course menu of your choosing. You can even cook several main courses instead of an appetizer or dessert. Ann, the owner, was very friendly, patient, and accommodating. She picked us up at our hotel and drove to the local market. The grocery shopping was an experience in itself! Ann showed us how the market runs, told us about local products, and showed us how to pick good groceries. She even bought us mangosteens, which were not part of the three-course menu! We chose to prepare Egg Rolls, Panang Curry, and Pad Thai. For the curry, we made our own curry paste from scratch. Ann was truly amazing; she adapted all the recipes to our needs and wishes. For example, my partner can't handle spice but he was able to make a curry paste, that was not spicy, while I made one that was spicy. She is also well versed with gluten and lactose free meals. Overall, this cooking class was flawless. The kitchen was very clean, Ann was cautious regarding cross-contamination, and we learned a lot about Thai ingredients and spices. I would highly recommend this private cooking class.

Authentic experience with an expert chef! - This is one of the best Thai cooking classes we have tried. We have been to many where it is light on the cooking and standard Thai dishes taught. Chef Ann takes you to the local markets to see the culture and the raw foods (meats, veggies, fruits) and decide with you what you want to make. We made 3 rare dishes of khao soi, Thai sausages(using pig intestine), and pandan/coconut jelly. It was very hands on and you should have some basic culinary knife cooking experience. Chef Ann does guide you and she is very humourous to make it enjoyable and fun. We highly recommend this for tourists who want more intimate Thai culinary experience! Thank you Chef Ann for the memories!!

Great cooking class - must do in North Thailand - Great cooking class today with Ann. It was just the two of us, so we chose our own dishes, from what we had seen from our time in Northern Thailand. We only booked the night before and Ann picked us up from the hotel, took us to the market to select fresh produce for dishes we discussed. She was able to cater for all allergies, and offer dishes that suit. Once in the kitchen she showed us how to put the dishes together. I’ve tried cooking Green curry, Pad Thai before, but the lessons we learnt will stay with us forever in our cooking. We even made our own Northern sausage from scratch. We would recommend a course with Ann while is Chiang Rai. Book in !

Highly recommended - Ann's class was excellent. We were a group of 5 mixed women and men. She picked us up at our hotel and we had an incredible time. First he took us to a very varied market where he showed us the fresh ingredients for the recipes we decided to make. Then he took us to his kitchen and patiently taught us step by step, and we laughed a lot and had fun while cooking with Ann. When we finished cooking we ate what was prepared and enjoyed the result. In short 10/10 I highly recommend Ann and this experience. Now in Mexico 🇲🇽 we can enjoy delicious Thai food with the recipes that Ann shared with us Thanks for the experience

Amazing cookery course, great value - Ann picks you up at your hotel and takes you to the local market where, as you wander around buying ingredients for your cookery course, she feeds you with lots of local delicacies. Back at the kitchen you prepare X4 dishes of your choice - under her watchful eye you will prepare and eat the best food you have eaten in Thailand! She caters for gluten free, vegan ,etc - we were really impressed. Ann speaks excellent English and is warm, funny and very knowledgeable about food, farming and Thailand in general. We had a great evening with her

Unreservedly recommended - It was an absolutely good experience to be at Ann's cooking class. We were picked up at the hotel and delivered to a place of our choice in the city afterwards. Everything in the process was good and well thought out, and Ann was a really sweet and good guide through both the market trip and cooking. Fun to visit Ann's kitchen garden too. The course was also completed, even though there were no other participants than the two of us. Subsequently, Ann sent us the recipes - thank you for that.
