Things to do in Miracle Cabaret Chiang Mai

The cooking class experience was excellent. The market tour guide explained everything very clearly, and our instructor, Mai, was great at creating a fun atmosphere, so everyone had a wonderful time. The food portions were very generous; I recommend bringing a food container to take the dessert back to your hotel to enjoy at your leisure. Also, it's definitely worth paying extra for the air-conditioned room because there are mosquitoes outdoors, and it gets a bit warm after cooking. Enjoying the food in an air-conditioned room is the smart choice! The only downside was that the transfer vehicle didn't have air conditioning, and the staff kept taking photos of us but never shared them. I tried contacting them via email and Facebook Messenger, but received no response. I had assumed that since the staff were taking so many pictures, I didn't need to take many of my family for souvenirs, and now I regret not having those photos. It's a real shame that I can't retrieve them!

While trying to decide what to experience in Chiang Mai, I found this place. It's an activity where you can make Ya Dom (Thai inhaler) and herbal balls, which are signature Thai products, so I decided to give it a try! It was very informative to learn about the characteristics and effects of each herb and to make them myself. Most importantly, the instructor was very kind and made it a pleasant experience. Since I made the Ya Dom and herbal balls myself, they feel even more meaningful and valuable to use. The store also sells herbal teas, oils, and balms, and their effects are really great! I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fun and educational activity!

Wolfe was the perfect guide! I had a great time and we went to places I wouldn’t have known about otherwise. Great way to meet people & I’d definitely do it again.

If you're visiting Chiang Mai, you should definitely try a Muay Thai class! It's a truly unique and exhilarating experience! I booked a group class on Klook a day in advance, thinking it would be less awkward with more people, but I still ended up making a fool of myself. The class started at 9 AM and finished at 10:30 AM, lasting a total of one and a half hours. For the first ten minutes or so, the head coach, Mark, led us through stretching, warm-ups, and jogging around the ring. The Thai coach spoke English, and everyone understood him. Since I was the only Chinese person there, my reactions were a bit slower than others, but I managed to get through the class despite some fumbling. After the warm-up, the head coach started wrapping our hands. After he wrapped one hand, he asked me how it felt. I said it was too tight, so he loosened it for me. But after he wrapped the other hand, I still felt it was too tight. He smiled helplessly and had to loosen that one too. I thought maybe the hand wraps for Muay Thai needed to be tight to protect the hands! But after the class, my hands were covered in marks, haha. Luckily, I didn't get injured. After wrapping our hands, the head coach had us put on gloves and started teaching us basic moves. After each move, he'd have us practice in pairs, repeating until we mastered the basics. My training partner was the assistant coach, "Ice." I often made mistakes because I was too nervous, like punching with my left hand and forgetting to guard with my right. He would tell me that if I didn't guard, someone would "bang" and hit me. Although the assistant coach also told me not to be nervous and just enjoy it, I always had that "good student" mindset, wanting to do my best, which just made me more flustered. In the end, I made the assistant coach laugh. He even started guarding when he should have been punching and punching when he should have been guarding. Seeing how nervous I was, he even jokingly threatened to hit me hard. I quickly waved my hands, "Nonono! You will hurt me! No!" He saw me frowning in fear and burst out laughing. Then we couldn't continue training; we were both bent over laughing. I guess that's my secret weapon in a fight! Making my opponent laugh until they're exhausted, and then winning without a fight. After a 90-minute trial class, I was completely exhausted. My hands hurt from the wraps, and my feet hurt from kicking. Even though I was hitting people, punching sandbags, and kicking tires, I was sore as if I had been beaten up. But it was so much fun and exhilarating! Life experience +1

Our guide, Ploy brought us to the wet market for some introduction to the ingredient. Then we went to the cooking school, cut some leaves from their garden and begin cooking. The staffs prepped all the ingredient for us, with some minimal cutting, pounding and mixing of ingredients, then begins the cooking. The cooking itself was fast paced cause you cannot let it burn, so you need to catch up fast, but it’s definitely manageable. Overall, it’s an amazing experience to eat what we’ve prepared! Huge kudos to the staffs and chefs there, will definitely come again! Now I can go back home and cook for my loved ones, with the recipe provided!

The portion size was too large; one person definitely couldn't finish it, it was enough for two! The curry and pad kra pao were delicious, and the fried pork skin was also good, with a nostalgic flavor. The performance was very unique, and at the end, they even set off fireworks outside! P.S. The dancers were so beautiful~~~

I just finished my experience and had to leave a review! It was absolutely amazing!!! I originally wanted to find a popular boxing gym recommended on social media, but I couldn't book for the same day, and it seemed fully booked. Then I found this gym on Klook that offered same-day 1-on-2 sessions. I was assigned KIEW, shown in picture 1. Although it was a bit pricier compared to others, the coach's emotional value was incredible. I was worried about a language barrier and feeling awkward, but the coach was always smiling and gave loud encouragement when I did things correctly. There was never a dull moment. The entire class was filled with laughter and joy as I learned about Muay Thai. I hope more people who want to experience Muay Thai see this gym and this coach!!!!

The environment is wonderful! The female store manager speaks Chinese, and the rest of the staff also know some basic Chinese, so there are no communication issues. They are very patient in helping you choose the right outfit. During the hair and makeup process, you can share your ideas at any time. However, when we went, applying false eyelashes required an extra 100 baht fee. Everyone was very friendly and great at providing emotional support. If you want to experience traditional clothing, you should definitely come to this shop.

We were picked up in an air-conditioned van, stopped at the market to learn about the ingredients, and then watched the instructor explain and demonstrate the cooking process before preparing our own dishes with the provided ingredients and tasting them. The pacing and depth of the explanation were just right, making it a fun cooking experience. At the end, everyone gets to cook with a spectacular flame show. It was a delicious and incredibly fun time. My daughter, a middle school student, loved it as well. I highly recommend the cooking class at Rice Barn with Teacher Lollipop! I was hesitant at first because there were few reviews, but I am extremely satisfied.
