Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Nestled in the historic Khwaeng Wat Arun district on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River, this cooking school offers a structured yet relaxed introduction to Thai cuisine. Classes are led by experienced instructors—including the highly acclaimed Kroo June—who guide participants through selecting ingredients at a local market and preparing traditional dishes in a professional kitchen. The combination of market visits and cooking classes adds authentic depth to the experience, placing the food within its cultural and culinary context rather than treating it as a mere tourist attraction.

The atmosphere is relaxed and interactive. Thanks to small group sizes, instructors can cater to individual needs and accommodate vegetarian requests. Participants cook and eat everything they prepare during the course – from classic Thai dishes to regional specialties. The setting, near the famous Temple of Dawn, offers an authentic, local experience far removed from the tourist bustle of Bangkok.
