Thorough crash course on Northern Thai cuisine - I really wanted to focus on Northern Thai food, and this class delivered. We started at the market, where everything was explained clearly. Then we traveled to the gorgeous campus and cooked over charcoals we lit ourselves. Our chef-teacher took us through the grounds to experience all the herbs that you can't find outside of this region. And we retrieved fresh warm eggs from the chicken coop for our omelets. We made a good many dishes, including packing our own sausages. We had a lot of gorgeous and intensely flavored food. Bring your appetite!

Fascinating and enjoyable - Such a unique day, cooking in the traditional methods over coals, and making a huge number of dishes. I really enjoyed the full-day experience because it gives you time to absorb and make things from scratch.
