The best cooking class we were ever been. Very kind host, who show us all ingredients separately which some of them from her garden, and explained everything very well. Thank you again for the great experience.
I had a wonderful time at this cooking class! Dee were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience fun from start to finish. I loved exploring the local market and learning about traditional ingredients. The dishes were easy to follow, delicious, and something I can now make at home. A great cultural experience—highly recommended!
We had a wonderful experience with Dee. Our tuk-tuk driver took us to a local market and talked to us about the vegetables being sold in the market. He then took us to Dee's home, where she has a lovely covered cooking porch inside her beautiful garden. We each prepared three Khmer dishes. We both chose to start with a green mango salad. My 2nd dish was Samlor ktis. My husband had Amok fish. We had an option for dessert, but since we don't like sweets we chose a vegetable dish for our third dish. I had crispy fried mushrooms and tofu and he had fried morning glory. Dee was a great teacher and we learned a lot about Khmer cooking. The food was delicious and I would highly recommend this tour as a great way to learn about Khmer cooking and culture.

Today we had a very nice cooking course from Dee and her team. First we went for a tour of a local market. The cooking course started with a tour and explanation in their own vegetable/herb garden and then we started working. Dee is super enthusiastic and explains how to do it well. I would definitely recommend this cooking course!
Hartelijk dank voor je mooie review! We zijn blij te horen dat je zo genoten hebt van de kookcursus met Dee en haar team, en dat de marktbezoek en tuinrondleiding zo leerzaam waren. Dee’s enthousiasme maakt de ervaring natuurlijk extra speciaal. We waarderen je aanbeveling enorm en hopen je in de toekomst weer te mogen verwelkomen!
We did this class in the low season, and it ended up a private session with the 2 of us. The experience included an authentic wet market tour where locals shop daily, a tour of the garden where we picked ingredients to use in our meals, and Dee ensured we were kept hydrated and the food turned out delicious. The meals included a choice of starter, main (including veg options), and a dessert. This was the first chance I had to cook and eat authentic Cambodian food, and I’m glad for the recipes to try again at home. Overall, the experience lasted about 3hrs. Dee was a delightful host and was able to answer many of cultural questions beyond food, which made the experience feel all the more personal.
Cooking and chatting with Dee was delightful! We had a great time walking through her garden and cooking some delicious food. Highly recommend!
Thank you Dee for an amazing morning. we had a fascinating tour of the local market. I took so many photos as there was so much going on. At the school we cooked 3 dishes of our choice and they all tasted amazing. We were given alternative ingredient names so I can recreate at home. We toured Dees garden where she grows her own fruit and veg including bananas and mangos ! I learnt so much and Dee was so friendly x
Thank you for your fantastic review! I’m so glad you had an amazing morning at the local market and enjoyed the cooking experience. It’s great to hear that you took so many photos and learned about alternative ingredients for your dishes. Touring the garden and seeing the fresh fruit and veggies is always a highlight! I appreciate your kind words, and I hope you can recreate those delicious dishes at home. Looking forward to welcoming you back soon!
With our three children aged 18,17 and 15 we did this cooking workshop. They were all looking forward to it and the expectation has come true. You choose from three dishes per person, and the cook will help you prepare the dishes. Dee was our cook; a wonderfully funny young woman who explains a lot about spices and speaks good English. We had a great time! Recommended to do with each other!
