Great people, great food! Thanks Mam and Bjorn! Will come back next time 🙂 (Originally Posted at AirBNB)

I had a really good experience. The couple are very knowledgeable and super friendly. I asked to make a dish I really wanted to know and she had no problem with it, despite it being a same day class. I would highly recommend this to you if you love to cook and meet good people. (Originally Posted at TripAdvisor)

Great experience, in a homely setting. (Originally posted at AirBNB)

I’m happy to report that this was an excellent experience in Bangkok. We pre-purchased our classes online using a well known travel vendor. We chose the option that included both the cooking class and the shopping trip to a local market. Our cooking class leader met us on time at the designated meeting spot and we explored the local market. Then we went to a family home where our group of two met with 4 other people for the evening’s Thai cooking experience. We prepared everything from scratch and then we were able to sit at a table to enjoy each of the meals that we prepared. At the end of the evening, we were transported back to our train station. Excellent experience! (Originally posted at TripAdvisor)

J’ai passé un très agréable après-midi. J’ai eu la chance d’avoir un cours particulier alors sur la veille le cours de Mam était complet. Par conséquent Elle a vraiment pris le temps de tout m’expliquer dans les moindres détails. Nous avons préparé 3 plats et un dessert. j’ai pu ramener ensuite les restes car les quantités étaient très généreuses. Tout était très bien organisé, le matériel et les ingrédients prêts à être utilisés. Les cours sont un peu décentrer du centre mais cela m’a permis de découvrir un autre quartier (non touristique) de Bangkok. C’est son mari qui a très gentiment fait les trajets entre le lieu de rendez vous et leur domicile. J’ai reçu aussi une liste des activités et attractions à faire à Bangkok pour m’aider dans mon programme ainsi que les différentes recettes. Je recommande cette activité si vous voulez découvrir la cuisine Thaï. (Originally posted at TripAdvisor)

Hello! Sorry it took so long for me to write a review. Hehe. Mam and her husband were incredibly kind and thoughtful. I got to cook 8 dishes that i wanted in 2 days and it turned out amazing. I felt so welcomed by them. Mam patiently taught me new things. What an amazing experience. I would go again if i visit Bangkok next time 🙂 Dont think twice. Just book this cooking class!

We had a fabulous time cooking with Mam and enjoyed a wonderful lunch. She allowed us to choose our foods and gave good instruction. We were late due to a language barrier with taxi and she accommodated us beautifully. It was so appreciated. We highly recommend this class. Thank you Mam. We loved being in your home, the food and getting to know all about you and your family! (Originally Posted at TripAdvisor)

Knowledgeable and fun experience that combines a market tour with a skilful cookery class. (Originally posted at AirBNB)

We first visited the food market which was very interesting. It was very informal so that Maam and her husband answered all of our questions about Thai markets and even helped one of their clients find a wok. Then we went to their home to cook. It was a comfortable and cozy setting with just three of us, so we all got Maam’s full attention. We got to cook the dishes of our choice from a list that she provided at the time of booking. Every dish was delicious. They took pictures and sent them via e-mail along with the recipes. A memorable experience. (Originally posted at TripAdvisor)

Mam and Bjorn are soooo nice and live in a really great area. Being in their home and making authentic Thai with them was super wonderful. (Originally posted at AirBNB)

An amazing afternoon learning to make 4 different Thai dishes. After being picked up from an easy to find location Mam and her husband took us to their local market where they explained fish and produce I’ve never seen before. The class in their home was very professional and completely hands on. It was very well paced. I now feel confident that I can create a Thai feast when I return home. I learned a lot about Thai culture in addition to cuisine. It also felt like a special gift to have this experience in their home. (Originally posted at TripAdvisor)

Mam, along with her husband, Bjorn picked us up at the sky train station at the agreed upon time and off we went to the market. The market was amazing….local, fresh and lively. Mam explained the layout & we followed closely as she chose the items she needed, then we headed back to their home where workstations were set up. I must say, I wondered how we would get all the dishes prepared & have time to eat, but Mam was so organized & helpful, that we had plenty of time. We each chose 1 dish from a myriad of offerings & Mam chose the other 2. Recipes are provided after the class via e-mail, as well as the pictures Bjorn took. I would definitely choose to do this again. Fun time for all. (Originally Posted at TripAdvisor)

We had a great time with this cooking class. The whole experience was great and very easy. The food market was very interesting and the food we cooked was amazing. Highly recommend this class. (Originally posted at TripAdvisor)

We believe that all has been said in previous reviews already. But for those who are still unsure, we can confirm that Mam, her husband Björn and the kitchen aid are certainly the number one when it comes to a private, customizable Thai cooking experience. We did a double course to also get the experience of so far unknown recipes outside the main stream “Pad Thai” kitchen. A full day with market visit, cooking eight dishes (and enjoying eating them with upmost appetite up to the last dish) was the best choice we have made. In addition the professional organisation, the hospitality and the immediate feeling of friendship made the whole experience unbeatable! Thank you so much, Mam and team.

Enjoyable and it was the best moment in this BKK trip. Instructor is nice and listens to requests. All ingredients were well prepared. Suitable for laid-back people to spend a couple hours to do sth special in BKK. Recommended to try! (Originally posted at TripAdvisor)

I signed up not knowing what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. Mam is a Subject Matter Expert. I signed up for the class in the very last minutes and I was not exactly sure what I wanted to learn and when I just told her the ingredients I wanted to use….she taught me how to whip up a 4 course meal with ease. More-importantly she has a kitchen crew to make sure that the class runs smooth and all the attention is given to the students. If you are looking for a one of a kind experience I highly recommend you try this course out either by yourself like I did or with a friend or family member……so that you can share and bond in the experience together.

It was a spontaneous idea to sign up last minute and I ended up having the best cooking class with Mam and her husband Bjorn! They were both very welcoming and really knowledgable about Thai food, we made curry from scratch and it tasted heavenly. It was an amazing class worth every dime and I’d definitely recommend it to my friends who plan to visit Bangkok 🙂 (Originally posted at AirBNB)

For our last day in Thailand, we decided to book a cooking class. Being vegetarians and experienced home cooks, we were looking to learn how to cook classic Thai dishes without using meat or fish sauce.
Helpfully, we were able to customise and confirm our menu with Mam via the website/email before we arrived – their website was also filled with practical information and photos to help us pick our dishes.
Getting to/from the location was easy – with collection/return from/to the BTS station and a 10-minute drive.
We also received a delicious lemongrass & pandan-leaf welcome drink, which was very refreshing. It was a nice, homely setting and the room was well air-conditioned.
We did not visit the market as part of the course, but all ingredients were freshly-sourced by Mam. The only ‘supermarket’ ingredients were the chili paste and mushroom sauce (replacement for oyster sauce).

We managed to cook (end eat) three vegetarian main dishes and one dessert: green curry, stir-fried tofu with cashew nuts, tom yam soup, and mango sticky rice!

Mam’s teaching was friendly yet informative, and our dishes turned out suited to our taste, yet authentic and delicious.
The follow-up recipes by email are detailed, and the photos are a nice touch.
We look forward to trying the techniques learned to recreate Thai food at home.

Mam (and family) was a great host – very friendly, informed and genuinely interested in giving us techniques and knowledge to use at home. We also appreciated her interest in providing us with a vegetarian (customised) class.
Thank you again for this experience!

We can most definitely recommend booking a cooking class with My Thai Cooking and Mam. (Originally posted at TripAdvisor)
