Silom Thai Cooking School in Bangkok

Best experience ever! Our instructor Fern was very kind, helpful and funny❤️The building was very aesthetic and nice as well—the minute you walk in you could smell how good the place is. Very cozy and homey. I like how there is an area for eating, preparing, and cooking. The market tour was very educational as well and surprisingly safe (I was able to pull out my camera without any worry or fear for my safety) The food we made are very tasty and this experience is worth every penny! I don’t actually cook at home but I learned a lot through this cooking class. Me and my mom enjoyed this very much and every staff here is so friendly and nice! I am also happy that they have a lot of free giveaways for us at the end of the class hehe.

Bangkok Silom Thai Cooking Class | Excellent After-Sales Service for Unexpected Allergic Reaction 📌 Silom Thai Cooking School 📍 6/14 Decho Rd, Suriya Wong, Bang Rak, Bangkok 10500 An afternoon learning Thai cuisine in Bangkok! The experience was fantastic, authentic, and incredibly fulfilling.💫 📝 Booking Information We booked the Monday afternoon session on the 20th via Klook. The total cost for four people was 774 RMB. We confirmed via WhatsApp in advance: children aged 6 and above need to pay the full fee and attend the class. If they are only accompanying and not participating, they must wait in the lobby on the first floor. The rules are very reasonable. 🍃 Environment The interior environment is clean and comfortable, with sofas in the lobby for resting while waiting for transportation. The multi-story classrooms are well-partitioned, and the indoor areas are cool with air conditioning. The kitchen has fans, though it can get a bit warm when stir-frying. 👩‍🍳 Class Atmosphere | Loved Teacher Mee Teacher Mee led the entire class. Her simple English was perfectly sufficient, and she had a humorous and gentle personality. Parents of ten-year-olds could easily follow along with simple translations. The whole process of pounding ingredients and cooking was full of energy, with the teacher shouting "Power! Power!" It was incredibly inspiring! ❤️‍🔥 📋 Monday Fixed Menu • Tom Yum Goong (Spicy Shrimp Soup) • Pad Thai (Thai Stir-fried Noodles) • Som Tum (Green Papaya Salad) • Green Curry Paste • Gaeng Keow Wan Gai (Green Curry with Chicken) • Khao Niao Mamuang (Mango Sticky Rice) 🍲 Class Experience The course follows a "cook one, eat one" model, which was incredibly satisfying! The post-class benefits were excellent: we received a personalized recipe book, a coconut shell spatula, and a completion certificate, making the experience feel very special. We could also pack up our creations to take home. 💛 Thoughtful Allergy Customization Service Upon arrival, the teacher proactively asked about dietary restrictions and allergies. When informed that someone in our group had a severe peanut allergy, they took extra precautions. Understanding that most Thai sauces contain peanuts, they paid close attention throughout the class. Both the Pad Thai and Green Papaya Salad were specially prepared as peanut-free customized versions, which was a very heartwarming detail. ⚠️ Unexpected Allergic Reaction | The School Was Fully Responsible and Reliable Safety: During the unexpected stir-frying of Pad Thai, airborne peanut dust triggered an allergic reaction, causing immediate difficulty breathing. The teacher reacted incredibly quickly and immediately contacted the owner! The owner accompanied us to the hospital throughout, covering the taxi fare and the initial medical expenses of over 400 RMB. They stayed with us during the injection and observation, showing great responsibility. The remaining two family members continued the class, and the teacher even prepared two extra dishes for us to take home, which was incredibly thoughtful! ✨ Amazing After-Sales Service! Truly Impressed That evening, due to medication side effects, I felt unwell again and had to seek medical attention, where I was diagnosed with acid reflux and received injections and medication. I decided to try my luck and WhatsApp them about reimbursement. To my surprise, the owner readily agreed to negotiate and processed a reimbursement of 4599 Thai Baht (approximately 920 RMB) via Alipay. After a follow-up check-up back home, my health has significantly improved. Overall, a truly perfect rating! 💯 Despite the unexpected minor incident, the school's teaching, service, responsibility, and after-sales support were impeccable! The teacher was witty and professional, the course was enriching and reliable, and they handled the situation without shirking responsibility. It's a highly recommended Thai cooking experience in Bangkok! ThailandTravel #BangkokTravel #BangkokFood #BangkokThaiCookingClass #SilomCookingSchool #

Highly recommended! The environment is clean, and it's quite close to the BTS, about a 10-minute walk, but I wouldn't recommend walking if it's too hot. If you call a car in the morning, you won't get stuck in traffic. Our teacher, Mee, took us to the market and even bought us local snacks to try. The cooking class was easy to understand in English, and she created a great atmosphere. Everyone really enjoyed it. This was actually my second time attending, and Mee even remembered me! She truly puts her heart into serving everyone. At the end, she also helped us call a tuk-tuk to leave. It felt safe and reliable, almost like their own fleet of vehicles. There were 5 of us, and we left with many gifts: chopsticks, a wooden spatula, a small wallet, wooden seasoning utensils, and even a certificate and recipe book. We had a wonderful morning, and everyone was very happy and satisfied.

Mee is THE BEST cooking instructor! We unfortunately ran a couple minutes late and the staff was so understanding. The space is so charming, like you're stepping into someone's home. They taught us how to make Tom Yum soup, green curry, pad Thai, papaya salad, and mango sticky rice is record time. I love how we are taught about each ingredient. Mee spoke perfect English and had jokes for days! I really appreciated how jovial and lively she was, learning about where we were from, while teaching a full class. 10/10 would absolutely recommend! Thank you Mee!

Silom Thai Cooking School was probably the best cooking school I’ve ever been to. Our instructor, Mee, made the experience amazing with her energy, humor, and enthusiasm throughout the class. We cooked 5 different Thai dishes and got to eat all of them afterward, which made the experience feel like great value. Everything was well organized, the food was delicious, and the recipes felt easy enough to recreate at home. A couple small things to note: there’s a lot of chopping involved, so a quick knife safety lesson would be helpful for beginners. Also, if you’re around 6ft or taller, be mindful of your head since parts of the building have low ceilings. Overall, an incredibly fun and memorable experience in Bangkok that I’d highly recommend to anyone visiting Thailand.

One of the best things we did during our time in Bangkok — a MUST DO! Jib was our instructor and she made the whole experience so fun and easy to follow. The class was very well organized. We did the market tour and made 5 dishes, but it never felt overwhelming. She explained all the ingredients and cooking steps so clearly, got everyone involved, and made it such a fun, hands-on experience. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Bangkok! 🍜✨

This was honestly one of the best experiences we’ve had in Bangkok! From start to finish, everything was so well organized and enjoyable. Our instructor, Jib, was absolutely fantastic—engaging, knowledgeable, incredibly patient, and hilarious (major bonus points for that! 😂). She made the entire class fun and interactive, and before we knew it, the time had flown by. We cooked five delicious dishes, met a wonderful group of people from different parts of the world, and learned so much about Thai cuisine, culture, ingredients, and cooking techniques. We especially appreciated that this is a Halal cooking school, which gave us extra confidence and comfort throughout the experience. The ingredients were fresh, the instructions were easy to follow, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Thank you for such a memorable experience. My mom and I absolutely loved every minute of it and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bangkok! ❤️🇹🇭

It was an absolutely amazing experience to participate in the Thai Cooking Class. Silom is one of the organizers that holds Halal certification. All the dishes were authentic Thai cuisine, taught by experienced instructors. Throughout the class, there was great interaction and fun between the instructors and participants, and the 3 hours flew by. After we finished cooking, we were able to taste everything right away.

Family of 5, they were able to sit us together and the entire class is teenager friendly. Our cooking instructor Fern was so accommodating and entertaining that we did not feel the 3 hours. It was very fun and informative, will definitely recommend this activity to friends and family!

Today's guide is Ju, a very cheerful and helpful guide/chef. Ju is very attentive and well versed with various foreign languages. She takes her time to explain each and every item during the morning market tour. During food preparations and cooking time, she's very patient too. This is a very engaging class that one should try if they have the time in Bangkok.
