Cooking with a Kami - I loved the tour started in a market where you get to see how the locals shop and see the different food and herbs. The location is near water which offers a pleasant view that complimented the eating area very well. It was a lovely setup & experience.

Fantastic immersion in the culture and flavors of Cambodia - My wife and I participated in the experience with Sofia (Sofia Loren had called herself :-)) and chef Prai (I hope I spelled it correctly). Perfectly organized since the Point of Sale tour. We will bring with us the sympathy and warmth of the “hosts” and a culinary experience that will be an inspiration when we return home. Absolutely to do!!!

5 star experience - wonderful cooking class - I cannot recommend this food shopping and cooking class enough in Siem Reap. I am so glad I did it, as it was the absolute highlight of my trip to Cambodia. Sophia and Sinat were such talented chefs, the food was delicious and the surroundings to eat it were beautiful - by a private lake. It was fantastic to go round the markets and speak to the locals about all the ingredients - very cool.

Fantastic experience - We’ve been traveling for a couple of weeks in Southeast Asia, and this was one of the best tours that we did. The two hosts were delightful, and the food that we cooked was probably one of the best meals that we had. And our two teenage daughters loved it as well. We highly recommended!

A must do activity in Siem Reap if you love food - Such a great cooking school where you actually get to do the cooking. Sopheap and Prey are wonderful. They help you step by step explaining what you are doing, how to do it, and all the spices and ingredients you are using. We started in the market where Sopheap explained all the various foods and talked about how they are used in Cambodian cooking. The kitchen is a beautiful space with fans to keep you cool and a lovely turtle pond to amuse you when not cooking. Everything is very clean. Before starting the class there were mangos and tea for refreshments. After the class, the food was beautifully plated an presented on a patio for dining on the food that had been cooked. A cook book was also provided with many Cambodian recipes to take home. I can highly recommend this class.

A fun, informative and delicious experience - The market tour and shopping with Sofia was excellent, and the cooking class with she and Prey was great. Everything was well organised and professional and most importantly we learnt how to prepare and cook ( and eat!!) beautiful local food. Would give this six stars if I could.

ABSOLUTE MUST EXPERIENCE!! - Such an amazing experience! The ladies who ran it were funny, knowledgeable, very helpful, patient, and welcoming. They teach you about the cuisine and ingredients and guide you through every step. I learned so much and can’t wait to make these recipes at home. Could not have been a better experience!
