Lanna Smile Thai Cooking Class in Chiang Mai with Market tour

I was the only one in the class on the day that I went. It was amazing! Both instructors are very attentive and I was able to learn a lot about the food, culture, and about them!

Everything about this tour was fantastic. We were picked up at our hotel. The trip to the local market was a great way to learn about local foods. Our guides were very personable and engaging. Back at the cooking school, we each made 5 dishes of choice. We sampled ingredients and learned about Thai cooking as Pim taught us step by step how to prepare the foods. We ate, laughed and learned! I would highly recommend this authentic cooking experience.

It is fun, informative and definitely worth doing. The two teachers Pim and Nim were brilliant. All the dishes we prepared were delicious.

Enjoyed the cooking class very much. Pim the instructor was very personable and knowledgeable. Enjoyed the tour of the market. Learned alot about Thailand cooking

We had an amazing dinner session with Pim and Nin. Super friendly, fun, knowledgeable and great hospitality. The food we cooked was very delicious. We will cook more Thai food at home drom now, with the help of Pims cook book.

We had a very nice afternoon/evening with the knowledgeable and friendly guidance of the nieces Pim and Nim. We were picked up at the agreed time at one b&b. Then we picked up some other people and drove towards the food market where a couple was waiting for us. During the ride we could all tick on a list which 5 dishes we wanted to make. With a nice club of 7 participants we first got an explanation on the vegetables, fresh herbs and sauces that we would use during our Thai cooking class. We also got some time to take a look at the market ourselves. Then we drove to the cooking studio where everything was already prepared for our lesson. After a short instruction we started working together. Each participant had their own workstation and cooker. We were really well guided during cooking by Pim who spoke fantastic good English. Nim was in the background cleaning the used crockery and preparing the ingredients needed for our dish. Whenever we had prepared 1 or 2 dishes we would sit down together to feast on our dish. It all tasted equally good. At the end of the lesson we got a nice recipe booklet. Afterwards Pim sent us lots of pictures she had taken of each of us and the group. I can really recommend this cooking workshop!

We had a fantastic time at Lanna Smile cookery school. Pim and Nim were wonderful teachers—friendly, patient, and really knowledgeable about Thai food and culture. They explained each step clearly and made the class fun and welcoming, even for beginners. The recipes were delicious, and I loved learning authentic techniques and flavors. I’d highly recommend this class to anyone who enjoys cooking or wants to try something new. Thank you ladies x

Nim and Pim were so kind, helpful, and fun and helped us better understand Thai home cooking techniques and recipes. We had 5 courses and could take food home with us but we ate it all! I’m definitely looking forward to making curry pastes and pad kee mao at home. You’re also able to buy beers with your class.

Fun day with 2 energetic and fun grils who know how to cook. First you go to the market together to understand the ingredients and then you go to their kitchen to cook together. You each get to pick your dish in 5 courses and eat it. Don't hesitate and just book with these girls

Highlight of our trip!! I cannot say enough good things about this class. Pim really made the experience amazing for us. The class was very intimate, there was only one other couple there with us which really made a difference because we saw multiple other overcrowded tours in the market. The hands on experience was incredible, we learned so much and the food was delicious! Make sure you come hungry!
