About this tour
This three-hour Silom cooking class starts with a guided prowl through a bustling Bangkok market, where you'll pick out fresh produce and spices before heading to the kitchen. There, instructors walk you through preparing four authentic Thai dishes—curries, stir-fries, and desserts—at your own pace. Cook what you make, eat what you cook, all without MSG. Groups cap at ten, so you get real attention.

- Four complete Thai dishes from scratch

What to expect
Arrive by 8:45 a.m. for the market visit—this isn't optional and kicks off promptly at that time. You'll walk through vendors stalls picking ingredients whilst your instructor explains what goes into proper Thai cooking. Back at the studio, you'll stand at your own station preparing four dishes under close watch. The pace is manageable; they pitch the teaching to absolute beginners and confident cooks alike. By lunchtime you're plating up and eating your own work.
Good to know
Get there between 8:30 and 8:45 a.m.; arriving after 9:05 a.m. means you'll miss the market tour. Public transport gets you close. Flag dietary needs and vegetarian preferences when booking. Under-sixes go free (one per group); children six and older need a full ticket. The menu rotates.
