5.00Fabulous experience! You get a tour of the local market and the kitchen's garden. Sivone was a fab instructor, we were able to choose our meals and adapt to our dietary requirements( we had one person with a gluten intolerance) and preferences. You also get all the recipes for all the possible meals at the end. Highly recommend!

5.00Wonderful experience and an absolute must do of Siam Reap. You get to choose individually what you will learn and the team is patient and competent. It is a great idea to shelter from the heat and you will also support a local family!!!

5.00We spent our last day in Siem Reap seeing the town and doing this cooking class and it was 100% worth it. Kong led us around the markets first, teaching us about traditional Cambodian food and the ingredients within them, which was very informative and useful to know what we would be using later in the cooking part. From there, after being taken by Tuktuk, Sivorn the instructing chef gave us several options so we could have a starter, main, side, dessert of our choice. The actual cooking went smoothly and was memorable as there were several ingredients I have not used before when cooking at home. The 6 person set-up is also very intimate meaning you are bound to make some friends. Overall a great experience, I would definitely recommend.
Great tour
