There are many Krabi tourism packages that include half-day/full-day cookery classes. If not, you can always customise your package and choose to attend a cookery school.
This is a great activity if you’re looking for socialising and meeting new people while on vacation, or also if you’re travelling with friends and family. Some of the best culinary schools in Krabi are:
1. Pum Thai Cooking Classes: A teaspoon of knowledge, a tablespoon of technique, and a touch of tradition, and you’re on your way to learning the best of Thai cuisine! Pum’s Cooking Classes teaches the art of cooking with the freshest ingredients along with the use of essential herbs and spices.
2. Ya Cookery School: This isn’t just a cookery school with expertise in Thai cooking, but is also a Thai restaurant. So after a great cooking session, where you understand and explore the local flavours and cook with some of the freshest ingredients, you can choose to dine here.
They also offer a comfortable stay at their pool villa and meditation activities that you can practice the next morning.
3. Aonang Thai Cookery School: Founded in 2001, the chef guiding you at the Aonang Thai Cookery School has over 10 years of experience at some of Thailand’s most renowned 5-star restaurants.
4. Smart Cook Thai Cookery School: Introduced by Chiang Mai, this professional and globally known school in Ao Nang gives you the opportunity to cook and serve up some great Thai dishes. Cooking here is like taking back a valuable souvenir that you can gift to your friends and family back home, with a personal touch.
