The Experience

Experience a half-day Pai cooking class that goes beyond recipes and teaches you to think like a Thai chef with friendly guidance from a local chef. Perfect for all levels, from first-time cooks to food lovers. Begin with a local market visit to see how fresh ingredients and herbs shape authentic Thai flavors. Choose your protein from chicken, pork, or tofu, then create 4 classic Thai dishes from a flexible menu of favorites such as Pad Thai, basil stir-fry, Tom Yum, Tom Kha, papaya salad, or mango sticky rice. Enjoy the dishes you’ve created and savor the flavors you shaped yourself. From market to plate, enjoy a flavorful hands-on experience in Pai, then take home Thai flavor skills and a recipe book to recreate each dish with ingredients you can find back home.
