Fun and educational experience - We had a great time learning how to cook Thai food with Jim and Sally.
We chose the afternoon class which includes a market visit. After picking us up at our hotel, we went straight to a market where the locals shop. Jim showed us how to identify and choose ingredients that we would be using in our dishes later on. At the school, we learned how to prepare 4 dishes: pad thai, cashew chicken, green curry and mango sticky rice. The emphasis is on the proper preparation and blending of the ingredients, while the actual cooking is straightforward, done entirely in a wok.
Jim is super funny and ongoing, which made the class very entertaining. We learned a lot and the food was delicious! We came away with a renewed appreciation for the flavours and freshness of Thai food!

Best thing to do in Thailand - Wow what can I say. We have been to Phuket for the 3rd time now and have done most of the tours, island hopping, ATV, shoes etc… I have found those to be a marketing gimmick, over promise and under deliver. Wow this course was amazing. We booked at 23:00 the night before and our booking was confirmed within a few hours. The host picked us up and then proceeded to the market which was insightful. We learnt a lot about the market and the various Thai veg and fruit. The fruit tasting was amazing. Jim and Sally are wonderful hosts and Jim has the personality of movie star… he made the class amazing, connected well with the class and was funny. He receipes we’re on point, delicious. If in Phuket skip the boat tours for spending 4 hours in travelling and one hour on the islands and do this class. You will thank me afterwards.

Highlight of our trip to Phuket! - What a fantastic experience we had cooking a Thai meal with Sally and Tom! First we had a great visit to the market to buy the ingredients which was great as Sally speaks great English and was able to explain so much to us about the local produce. The kitchen, dining and work areas were spotlessly clean and what we cooked was undoubtedly the best Thai meal either of us have ever had. Tom is such a big personality it was such fun meeting them both. Can't recommend highly enough.

Terrific cooking class experience in Phuket - This class is a must. Jimmy and Sally are so hospitable and enthusiastic about what they do. Despite having been to hundreds of markets, Jimmy explained many of the fruits and vegetables, then we had a fruit tasting session before leaving for class. First time I ever tasted a mangosteen, and I loved it. The cooking class was very enjoyable and the food good. Jimmy’s a great instructor and Sally was so accommodating. In addition to the menu items advertised, they offered to cook any other dishes the group requested, and they did! Time with them was not a factor - class ended when we had no further questions and everyone was satisfied. There were 9 in our class and everyone thought the class was way better than 5 stars! Got way, way more than our money’s worth.
