Wonderful introduction to cooking basic Thai cuisine. - The Mama Noi cooking class was amazing! Thai cuisine seemed intimidating to cook before the class, and now we feel comfortable making green curry and other dishes… Highly organized.

Mother & Teen Highlight of Chiang Mai Trip - The cooking class at Mama Noi’s was even more fun (and educational) than we anticipated. I took it with my 13-year-old son on our last day in Chiang Mai to kill time before catching our midnight flight home. Wow! Im so glad we took this class. Great value! We agreed it was one of our top three highlights in Chiang Mai. The half-day program was well organized. Our instructor, Blue, was easy to understand and very approachable. She added to the overall festive, friendly vibe as did the other six students from various countries. We were picked up on time at our accommodation at 3:30 pm and got back around 8 pm. The shopping trip /market tour was informative, and the cooking school’s campus, with its organic gardens, is so beautiful and whimsical: look for the cute nooks and kitties hiding around the grounds! The cooking part of the day was relatively easy to follow and felt safe although you should have some very basic cooking skills like how to use a knife and practice safety measure when using a stovetop with high heat/flames. Might be a little unsafe for those kids without any cooking experience or under age nine/ten. The cooking moves pretty fast and there are a lot of instructions to follow. I left inspired to cook each recipe listed in the cookbook that everyone receives at the end of the class. Note: We booked AC. I highly recommend it, especially if you have kids. It's worth it. It could be challenging for those people uncomfortable in warmer climates, such as is my son, if they didn't have the long breaks from the heat in a fabulously air-conditioned cooking space. The AC space was used after the market during introductions, setup, during ingredient prep, and for our eating time. All of the cooking stoves are outside but if you booked AC the majority (70%?) of your time is in AC after the market. Thank you, Blue & all at the school!

Thai culinary experience - Enriching experience for this morning. We were plunged away from the Chiang Mai Point of Sale with a presentation of exotic fruits and herbs. Visit the park of the cooking school. Cooking class great. The dishes were too hearty and not possible to take a doggy bag. Pleasant atmosphere, very professional teachers and staff, welcoming and pleasant. I recommend.
