Cooking and Eating Fun Experience - Fantastic cooking class. Geng explained many products and vegetables at the market and then we went to their modern open plan kitchen to cook. O had everything prepared and we cooked 4 dishes. Thoroughly enjoyed the cooking experience and would recommend anyone to do it

Great experience - We were guests of Geng and his wife in September 2024. First we went to the local market and were introduced to local spices and food. Of course, you could stock up directly and buy delicious spices for your home. Afterwards we were taken to the property to cook together. Everyone had their own cooking area and could thus prepare their own food under instruction. The food was great and the family very nice and attentive. We were picked up from our accommodation. Absolute recommendation!

Clear Recommendation - It was a great experience. Very delicious food according to the recipe of the grandmother of the family with an extraordinarily nice cooking team. The market visit before was also really impressive. Would highly recommend at any time.

Wonderful experience meeting a local, friendly family. Bonus was I learnt some beautiful Thai dishes I can take home. - Fantastic!! I enjoyed a genuine local Samui family and friends. As a tourist wanting to escape tourism, I found it here. Local market information and a fun cooking class that delivers beautiful classic Thai food. Thank you.

Do it! - Had such a fantastic experience. Great sense of humour and accommodated all ages. I was a solo traveller, had a family there which kids were well looked after as well. They explained why they added more salt/sugar/fish oil as they tested them to ensure we had the right flavours. They explained everything clearly and feel lucky to take his grandmother's recipes home. The only thing I can say is do not eat breakfast. You eat all your meals as you go along. They're delicious! I brought home my spring rolls because I couldn't eat any more. If you want a cooking experience that makes you feel at home, comfortable, no judgement (from my lack of cooking skills), then definitely this one. 100% family friendly but also great for people like myself as solo travellers. My only regret is I was so full at the end I forgot to tip them for their generosity, love of food, and overall great experience. Everyone was just so happy. It was lovely.

Great experience in Samuj - Great experience, the family was so nice and provided us a lot of details of their traditions and how they parents and grandparents used to cook. Everything was well organized and communication in English has been good. Great dishes done, do not eat too much at your breakfast because you will eat a lot!

Fun cooking workshop with children - Fun cooking workshop, with good guidance and tasty dishes (decide how spicey you want your dish). Our daughters of 6 and 8 years also really enjoyed it, really an outing with children.

Unforgettable, competently run, familiar and super organized cooking class - The cooking class was a complete hit and the perfect round off of our holiday. Everything was super organized and Geng and his family extremely sympathetic competent. First we were on the market and received valuable information about the Thai and especially regional cooking ingredients. Then the taxi driver drove us on to Geng's farm. We expected great, clean cooking areas and you immediately felt comfortable. We were only 5 students in total, so everything could be accompanied very individually. Our 10 year old son could cook the 4 course menu himself without any problems. Very motivating! The menu selection was equally successful. Those who do not attend this course will miss something. Thank you for the great event!!!
