Know before you go

• Come hungry, you'll eat everything you cook at the end of the class.
• Wear comfortable clothes and closed-toe shoes for the kitchen.
• Notify the school of any dietary restrictions in advance; they can accommodate vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options.
• Bring a water bottle; the kitchen provides drinking water, but it's good to stay hydrated.

A bit of history

Founded by a group of Thai culinary enthusiasts, the academy started as a small operation and grew due to positive reviews. It focuses on authentic home-style cooking rather than restaurant techniques.
