Amazing cooking class to learn many staple Thai dishes - This was such a great experience, would absolutely recommend it to anyone spending time in Chiang Mai! No one else had booked on our session so it was just the two of us. Aek was so attentive, lovely and helpful and he explained everything to us from the ingredients we used to the recipe and local customs. We got to choose what meals we wanted to cook and they were all delicious. Everything was well organised so we went between cooking and eating (tip: don’t have any food before going you will be so full by the end). Thank you so much to the team :))

A MUST take cooking class! - This was truly my favorite excursion I did in Thailand! Chef Aek was a wonderful teacher. He gave our group of 9 multiple options for our four coarse dinner class, and then he taught us all at the same time but it was clear and concise and we all were able to follow along really easily. The food was incredible! Chef Aek is truly a great teacher. The location was very convenient for us in chiang mai, and Aek also provided pick up and drop off in a van that fit our group. Chef Aek took us to the market and showed us the ingredient to buy. He taught us a lot about Thai food and culture. He was also so kind and easy going even when some of us needed a lot of help and would mess up here and there. The location is also very homey and made the experience so authentic and memorabe. The space is very clean and well kept, but has an authenticity to it that cannot be replicated anywhere else. I could not recommend enough! Truly one of my favorite experiences. Me and my friends cannot stop raving about it

Best Chiang Mai Cooking Class - Truly cannot express how much we loved our time at Aromdii Cookery School! If you’re wanting to do a Thai cooking class while in Chiang Mai, this is the place! Aek is so knowledgeable and happy to share about his culture and customs around food. We all learned so much and look forward to giving his delicious recipes a a go when we return home. Thank you Aek!!

Excellent cooking class! - We had such a great experience at Aromdii! Aek and his wife are fantastic hosts, and we learned a lot about Thai cuisine and food culture. The dishes were delicious—some of the best we’ve had on our trip so far. We would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a smaller, more personalized cooking class experience in Chiang Mai!

Fantastic cooking class - Class experience. He explained everything very well. We all got to cook 5 meals of our choosing from a list (you don't all have to cook the same things, they can be different) and got to eat all the food after. It was with a small group.

If you’re in Chang Mai do this coooking class 10/10 - The host was simply amazing, rellly kind caring and knowledgeable. We were brought into his family home and taught great ways of Thai cooking. 10/10 if you need to do anything in Chang Mai it’s this class, could not recommend enough.

Wonderful experience in Chang Mai - We spent a lovely 4 hours cooking with AEK. It was informative and delicious!!! So much food! Amazing too that each person can choose their own menu, so several different dishes are being cooked by participants simultaneously. Aek, did a great job explaining each step. He communicates very clearly and the cooking experience was truly step by step. I highly recommend this cooking class! But do not eat breakfast / lunch before you go, you will need space for all the delicious food you cook!

Great Thai cooking experience with authentic chef - The cooking class was a great way to get an insight into Thai cuisine. At first we went to the local market where we bought the ingredients for our dishes. In addition, typical Thai spices and specialties were shown and explained to us at the market. Afterwards, we would go to the kitchen, which is near the old town. We were previously allowed to choose 5 different dishes, which we then cooked. If there are two, I would recommend that both cook different dishes so that you can try more. Overall, everything was very well prepared and the recipes were explained very well so you can recook them well at home. A very big praise and thank you for the great experience to Nok and Aek.

Amazing Cooking experience - We had an amazing time learning all about Thai ingredients and then how to make delicious dishes! I highly recommend this cooking class. I am vegetarian and had no trouble making vegetarian dishes. My husband is a meat eater and was able to make meat dishes with no issues. This class will work for both vegetarians and meat eaters alike! They pick you up at your hotel and take you to to the market to pick us the ingredients for your dishes. The owner will explain about all of he different ingredients in Thai cuisine and we learned a lot About the food we had been eating since we arrived in Thailand! We had a great time with everyone in our class During our evening cooking class. You will not be sorry if you choose this class!
