Teacher Anan is knowledgeable and humorous. Enjoyable and well organised class. Food made is also delicious and quite authentic. Teacher Anan made crafting Thai curry from scratch less daunting. I feel more confident tackling Thai curries now. Highly recommend!

Hands on participation- Chef guided us through with clear instructions (some humour:)) and demonstrations which made it hard to get anything wrong! We were able to enjoy the delicious dishes we made with a glass of wine.

Chef Anan was amazing! Very knowledgeable and very friendly. Made sure all dietary requirements were adhered to and went over and above. Great afternoon of learning to cook Northern Thai dishes.
