Asia Scenic
Asia Scenic Cooking Class is one of the first Thai cookery schools in Chiang Mai that took the experience to the next level by cooking on a farm. Learn how to cook with the “sufficiency economy.” You will understand how the locals in the countryside can survive and live off the harvests from their land.
This excellent cooking class is located on a farm about 20 kilometers outside the city of Chiang Mai. Most of the products used during the course are homegrown and organic. On the way to the farm, you will visit a local market where you will learn about the different kinds of rice, vegetables, spices, and herbs used in the Thai kitchen. When we arrive at the farm, we will start with a short introduction followed by a tour around the farm. Being able to observe the plants and pick your herbs is a great experience.
During the course, you will prepare seven dishes and of course, get to eat all of them. After the class, you will receive a recipe book with all the recipes and explanations about herbs and spices used in Thai cuisine.
Vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free diets are welcome to join the course. We can cater to most dietary requirements, but please inform us in advance.
Asia Scenic is a fantastic cooking school if you want to learn more than just the basics!
