I chose the farm over the city and was pleased that I did. Still got to visit a local market and be shown some different ingredients. The farm was very interesting, seeing all the spices growing and I learnt not only the basics but some great little tips and tricks too.

My husband and I spent five nights in Chiang Mai last fall. We fell in love with the laid back culture, night markets, and delicious food. Friends of ours had suggested we try the Asia Scenic Cooking School, knowing that we loved Thai food. I have to say it was one of most favorite days in Thailand. We did the... More

We did the full day course (not quite a full day only lasts till about 3 but excellent nonetheless). Our teacher Indy was really fun, enthusiastic and patient. We visited a market, learnt about using fresh Thai ingredients and over the day cooked 5 dishes each. You get to keep a cookbook at the end too. Would certaintly recommend using... More

Good value half day cooking class - 700 baht. Hotel transfers included. No frills but very nice experience none the less. Have taken away some good practical skills that will be put to good use at home. We did the city based class. Think from the reviews the country class might be the better one. Sue the teacher is lovely.... More

Booked the full day for four at the farm, quoted 800baht per person. Picked up at hotel in a/c car taken to a staging point where we each tendered a 1000baht bill. From there we visited a local market to see what would be used and do a little shopping. Then off to the farm. Sue our guide and instructor... More

A great evening session, learning about the ingredients, preparing them and then eating them! As a very average cook, Beerry our very jolly instructor was a star and got myself and the group cooking with style and flair and preparing some very enjoyable dishes. The take home cook book is a great aide-memoire and the food works well at home... More

Her english is good , she is relaxed, funny and had a lot of patience when we needed some more explanation. At first you can choose 6 meals you would like to prepare.After this is done you... More

We chose the evening course (700baht). Picked up from our hostel to the cooking school and dropped off afterwards too. We were lucky and got the room inside with air conditioning! Visited the market to learn about where all the ingredients come from, and a chance to purchase ingredients for yourself to take home. We cooked a stir-fry, soup and... More

For the ultimate cooking experience you must go here, do the farm one though the settings are so much better. You get a full day and go to the local markets, get shown around the farm garden, cook 5 dishes and eat them all. We had Indy who was lovely and helpful. It was so much fun I had a... More
