Wonderful cooking class - I joined the evening cooking class. The food tasted delicious, especially the papaya salad. It was possible to adjust the dishes to vegetarian/peanut allergies. Thank you for a wonderful evening! :)

Wonderful! - Translation results I personally recommend going in the morning and visiting the market. The explanations of local products are very well done. At the market, you can taste local products that you wouldn't try yourself. The course is great. Lots of dishes to cook, all excellent. The explanations are clear. The dishes are succulent. Go with your eyes closed!
