A foodie’s dream with no shortcuts

I love taking cooking classes and I’ve taken cooking classes at home and around the world. This is easily the best one I’ve ever taken - it’s absolutely a foodie’s dream cooking class. Everything was from scratch - no shortcuts. Green curry paste was made from over a dozen herbs and spices pounded by hand. Coconut milk was squeezed from coconut meal. e tasted each ingredient along the way to understand them. The class is far from the tourist neighborhoods, this is an authentic experience. I couldn’t recommend it enough.

It was remarkable. We learnt so much about the raw ingredients and technique from scratch. The four courses were perfect. Joyce was a wonderful teacher. It is in a quiet residential area very close to the giant Buddha so very easy to combine visits. Thank you Joyce for the best day.
Don’t hesitate to book!!! Amazing class!

I really enjoyed my evening cooking with Joyce. All of the food we made was delicious (better than the Michelin rated versions I tried on a food tour). I booked the class same day via Get Your Guide and I received instructions and guidance how to get to the class almost immediately. I took the MRT to Bang Phai, then I walked to the class. It was easy to find. Thank you so much Joyce for being so welcoming and kind. I definitely recommend this class to everyone!

The dishes were delicious and authentic! I didn’t think I liked green curry until I made it here! I look forward to making these dishes at home. Joyce is a wonderful teacher!

We did the cooking class on the last day of our holiday and it was one of the best experiences in Thailand. Joy designed the course with a lot of passion and fun and the food we cooked was incredibly delicious. The best we ate during our 4 weeks of Thailand vacation😋 If you want to get to know authentic Thai cuisine and cook is right here! Everything is very clean and hygienic and the ingredients are all very fresh. Just perfect all around 👌🏼

We LOVED our cooking class with Chef Joyce. If you’re looking for a cozy and intimate way of experiencing Thailand, then we cannot recommend Mahanakorn Thai Cooking Class highly enough. Starting the class off naming and tasting each herb and spice we would use made the finished meal all the more special and tasty.
Amazing experience
