Excellent ! Sopheap is fantastic - We did a private couples cookery course last night. Our teacher Sopheap was amazing. She was patient and very knowledgeable both in produce, and flavours for various Cambodian dishes. She took us around the local market beforehand showing us all the produce and taking time to answer questions. She is fluent in English. The experience was fun, relaxed and so enjoyable. We were so glad we did the evening 5pm class as we got to see the lights and atmosphere of Pub street but also we ate our delicious 3 course Cambodian feast we had prepared. Don’t hesitate to book!

Don't want to miss this! - Absolutely fantastic! You don't want to miss this cooking class experience. We spent a few hours with Sinuon making a variety of delicious dishes! There was so much food and the attention to detail for presentation was phenomenal. This was probably one of the best cooking classes I've done on my travel and I say to anyone reading "book it!" Also Sinuon you were a fantastic teacher! Thank you again for the incredible morning.

Great fun learning to cook Khmer style - We loved the 5pm cooking class and had a blast with Sopheap. We toured the local market to learn about the vegetables and aromatics we would use for cooking and a vendor let us try their dried fruit. We chopped vegetables and made a dressing that was used as a dipping sauce for fresh spring rolls and the dressing for a mango salad. For our main dishes we had Amok and a chicken curry. There were vegetarian, fish, chicken and beef options. Everything was easy to make and tasted delicious since we could decide what to add or leave out. The class is held upstairs of the Paper Tiger restaurant. After everything is cooked, you eat what you made downstairs at the restaurant where you can order drinks and see all the excitement on Pub Street.

Fun and delicious - Excellent cooking class! Chaddy guided us through 5 dishes and they all turned out incredible! She took us through the local market and then we made all the dishes together. She is fun and patient and clearly a very accomplished chef!

Beautiful culinary experience - Full menu cooked with super chef Channy. Until you make the sauce for the spring rolls and try carving on carrots for decoration! We'd be fine with the list of ingredients and the recipe cards. We cooked for 2, there were for 4 people! It was delicious.

Amazing cooking experience - My partner and I had a truly great time in the cooking class run by Sopheap. She was enthusiastic, kind and also a master chef! Her energy was lovely, which made the whole experience worth every cent. I would totally recommend - plus you get to eat the food you just prepared!

The best meal we had in Cambodia! - First of all thanks and praise must be given to our teacher Sinoun for her fantastic patience and support on this course. Her teaching was clear and she made all instructions straightforward. She was with us every step of the way helping us to produce the best food we ate throughout our stay in Cambodia. Nothing was too much for her - my partner accidentally selected beef lok lak as one of the dishes he would make and at the last minute she was able to change this chicken (I don’t eat beef). She has such a friendly, sunny disposition too making the whole experience so enjoyable. All the ingredients used were fresh and delicious and all tools sharp and good quality. Thanks must also go to Paper Tiger for offering and hosting this brilliant course. Just one wee negative, it took a phone call, a few messages and emails before we finally received the recipes. It would have been good to have these when we left the course. Otherwise, we can’t rate the course highly enough. អរគុណ​ច្រើន
