— What You Can Expect —
Join Riverside Cooking Class and learn to prepare authentic Thai dishes with professional Chinese or English-speaking instructors who guide you through the true essence of Thai kitchen culture. This is more than just a cooking lesson — it’s an immersive experience blending cuisine, nature, and traditional Thai heritage.
Begin your journey with a visit to a local Thai market, where your instructor will teach you how to select the freshest and highest-quality ingredients for Thai cooking. Then return to the riverside classroom and start your hands-on session in a relaxing open-air kitchen setting.
Under the guidance of experienced chefs, prepare five classic Thai dishes, including flavorful Pad Thai, spicy and sour Tom Yum Prawn Soup, refreshing Papaya Salad, traditional Pad Ka Prao (choice of pork or chicken), and taste the beloved Mango Sticky Rice dessert. With clear step-by-step instruction in Chinese or English, even beginners can confidently create these signature dishes.
Beyond cooking, you will also craft a traditional Thai floating lantern, symbolizing blessings and gratitude in Thai culture. After enjoying the dishes you’ve prepared, conclude your memorable half-day riverside culinary experience with lasting flavors and meaningful cultural moments.
Interact with elephants, feed them, experience the joy of spending time with them, and take photos with them.
