The Best Places to Go for Cooking Classes in Phuket - Our Guide
When visiting Phuket, chances are you look forward to the sun and the sand. However, the beach is far from the only activity to enjoy in the area. One of the best activities that you could enjoy in Phuket is taking a cooking class.
Whether you are a chef or a beginner, these cooking classes are designed to be for everyone. You don’t even need to have any prior cooking experience.
Many people say that Thai cuisine is complicated, whether it is preparing the ingredients or composing the dish. This might be true in some cases, but not always. When you enroll for a cooking class, the instructor will make sure that you can follow every step along the way.
There are a variety of cooking classes for you to choose from in Phuket. You can choose to learn in a hotel kitchen, a cooking school, or even in a personal home’s kitchen. If you are new to the island, you may go on the internet and look for the reviews.
Then, you can choose to take classes with any of them depending on your liking. If you aren’t sure where to begin, here are two exemplary places where you can take a cooking class in Phuket:
Organic Thai Cooking
If you want to spend the whole day exploring Thai cuisine, Organic Thai Cooking is the place for you. This school has beautiful decor and gives off a cozy vibe. It is perfect for those who want to learn to cook in a laid-back environment.
You will start the day by going to the market with the instructors to pick out your own ingredients. This is a great opportunity to learn more about Thai herbs and vegetables that may not be available in your home country.
Aside from the market, there is a small organic farm at the school where you can get your ingredients by harvesting them fresh. Most of the ingredients that they have at the farm are the commonly-used ones such as chillis, basil, and kaffir lime leaves.
You don’t have to worry about any toxic chemicals left in veggies because they are grown pesticide-free. The class is very private and intimate as only three people are allowed per session. Organic Thai Cooking is located in Rawai, Phuket. We recommend that you give them a call for any inquiries and to book a reservation in advance.
Phuket Thai Cooking Academy
If you want to learn about Thai cuisine in a more professional setting, you should go to Phuket Thai Cooking Academy. Once you enter this school, you will see many stations in one big open-air room. The setup is similar to the set of Masterchef. Everyone has their own cooking station for the class. There are many types of cooking classes available such as private classes, vegetarian foods, and advanced classes. You will certainly find one that suits your preferences. You will also get to return home from Phuket Thai Cooking Academy with a certificate of achievement and recipes that will wow your family!
There’s no better way to learn how to cook Thai food than to be taught by professional chefs. Phuket Thai Cooking Academy is in a good location that is easy to access. If you are in Patong Beach, it will take a mere 5 minutes to get there! If you will be staying in another area, the school offers free transportation for easy pick-up and drop off.
