What to expect

The experience starts with a visit to a vibrant local market, alive with color, chatter, and the rich aroma of Thai ingredients. You’ll breathe in the citrusy zest of kaffir lime leaves, the fiery punch of chilies, and the earthy scent of lemongrass. As you wander past overflowing baskets of herbs and tropical produce, your guide will share the stories and secrets behind these essential elements of Thai cooking. It’s a glimpse into everyday life and a celebration of local culture. Back at the kitchen, nestled in a peaceful island setting, it’s time to bring your ingredients to life. With the guidance of a certified Thai chef, you’ll prepare three traditional dishes of your choice—maybe a comforting bowl of Tom Yum, a fragrant Green Curry, or crispy golden spring rolls. As you cook, the scent of garlic sizzling in oil and coconut milk gently simmering fills the air. You’ll also craft a sweet Thai dessert made with banana and coconut milk, rounding out your culinary journey.
