Thai Cooking Class & Market Tour

Discover the secrets of Thai cuisine in this immersive cooking experience that begins with a guided morning tour of a local fresh market. Learn to select traditional ingredients like galangal, lemongrass, and Thai basil while interacting with local vendors. In a traditional open-air cooking school, master chefs guide you through preparing four authentic dishes from scratch, typically including classics like tom yum soup, pad thai, green curry, and mango sticky rice. The class emphasizes traditional techniques, the balance of Thailand's four essential flavors (sweet, sour, salty, and spicy), and the medicinal properties of Thai herbs. After cooking, enjoy your creations in a communal dining experience. Participants receive recipe cards and tips for finding ingredients in their home countries to recreate these dishes.
