Came with a Contiki tour group, and we absolutely loved our cooking class experience at this beautiful, serene spot! The chef was hilarious and made things fun & easy for us — literally beginners will he able to come out with delicious food on their plates! We made Tom yum soup, pad Thai (one of the best I’ve ever had!!), chicken panang curry, cashew chicken stir fry, & coconut + mango sticky rice. SO MUCH GOOD FOOD ; highly recommend if you have time during your Thailand visit! :)

My husband and I are on our honeymoon and we’ve been looking forward to this cooking school experience! We did a lot of research amongst the various cooking schools and what we liked about this one was an option of going to the farm to learn about the different ingredients used for the dishes. Indy, our cooking instructor for the day, was very helpful, informative, and funny! She has been teaching for eight years with the company and knows what classical Thai cooking is all about. She answered all of our questions and also added information of common things she gets asked from previous classes. We were picked up from our hotel and checked into the city location for payment. (1200 Baht per person full day at the farm) We then went on a little tour in the market explaining the different products then a 30-35 minute drive to the farm. The farm location was much bigger than the city location! Much roomier and very beautiful!!!! (Plus free WiFi!) We chose the seven dishes we were going to make for the day, took a tour in the garden and learned about the different items for our dishes. You will definitely be stuffed at the end of the day! Due to the coronavirus, we were the only students for the day. It was nice to have a private class for the day that we ended a bit earlier (which we didn’t mind since we were so tired after eating all of the yummy food we made!) Indy, did a little recap of the day and gave us a wonderful cool book of everything she talked about for the day. It is a wonderful memento! Thank you, Indy for such a wonderful experience and it was definitely one of our favorite things to do in Chiang Mai! Thank you Asia Scenic Thai Cooking School for being open during the coronavirus so we can still experience Chiang Mai and Thai cooking! If you’re wondering what kind of cooking school to sign up with, we highly recommend Asia Scenic Thai Cooking school! An unforgettable experience leaving your stomach happy!

There are tons of cooking schools so we chose this one based on a recommend from our hotel and we weren’t disappointed. Prompt pick-up at the hotel and started with a tour of a local market (veg, meat and fish). The school is set in a lovely location, old teak house in excellent gardens with superb facilities for up to 12 ‘students’. Our teacher, Yam, was very friendly and knowledgable with very good English. She demonstrated the dishes and then we cooked them while she supervised and taught us lots of really useful tricks of the trade. There’s a different menu each day so you can choose which you prefer as you get to eat it for your lunch. A great experience for foodies!

This has by far been one of my best trips. I made a lot of amazing friends and the Bootcamp program itself works well with the trainers. The main trainer Jo was very professional and created an amazing atmosphere for the group. My relationship with food and gym has completely changed and one month on I have kept all the positive habits I picked up on my trip. I would recommend Fresh Start to anyone who needs a decent break from the rate race or needs the boost to get in shape and pick up great habits for a healthy lifestyle.

We just did our cooking class in town with Aim last night and we had a fantastic time! Aim is HILARIOUS and also a great teacher. We were laughing the whole time and still managed to make five delicious dishes. It’s hot and hard work (especially making the curry paste!!) but there are enough breaks for eating and drinking that you’re never working too hard for long! As someone with a lot of food restrictions (allergies) I think this class is really perfect because everyone picks from a multitude of options and makes their own individual dishes which can be completely customized to avoid any issues. This was a really fun and delicious experience and we even have a cookbook now with all the recipes (even the ones we didn’t choose) so we can make everything at home! Shout out as well to all the staff who quickly, efficiently, and tirelessly cleaned up and set up for us to make the next dishes—it was such a well-oiled machine designed to make sure we had an excellent experience. Definitely check out this class and hopefully you have Aim as your instructor as well! I’m still in shock I made such yummy food!!

Da's farm was passed down to him from his parents and has been in his family for generations. When you visit the beautiful organic garden, he'll tell you more about the history and show you all of his organic herbs and vegetables. Da grows rice, various types of basil, green beans, mushrooms, tomatoes, bananas, papaya, pineapple, galangal, ginger, and much much more! Almost all of the ingredients that you cook will come from his garden, freshly picked!
