Overview

The cooking school introduces guests, both novice and experienced cooks, to the art of Thai cuisine. Designed by the Resort's culinary team, the programme offers guests a hands-on learning experience. Famous dishes such as kaow soi gai (Chiang Mai curry noodle soup with chicken) and gaeng hung lay (dry spiced curry with pork and pickled garlic) are just two of the specialties that are introduced in the cooking school’s weekly programme.

The cooking school experience is also available as an all-inclusive package. Please refer to the Rates and reservations section for details, or contact the Resort directly.

Chef’s Table

For a novel way to learn even more about one of the world’s favourite cuisines, join the cooking school’s intimate Chef’s Table, offered four nights a week. One of our Chefs demonstrates and explains various preparation methods and culinary techniques as you enjoy a sumptuous meal of 15 different Thai dishes to share, family style, with up to 8 guests. The evening begins with cocktails at 7:00 pm. House wines, beers and non-alcoholic beverages are included, and children between 4 and 12 enjoy the Chef’s Table for half price.

Reservations are required. For more information or to book the Chef’s Table dining experience, please contact the Resort directly at 66 (0) 53 298-181.

Facilities

Designed by the award-winning Bensley Design Studios in Bangkok, the Resort's lanna-style cooking facility celebrates northern architecture and traditional design. An imposing stone staircase leads guests into the demonstration, dining and retail pavilions, which complement the Resort's distinctive design.

The demonstration pavilion, with rich timber floors, large overhead zinc exhaust fans and huge sliding glass doors, is air-conditioned. It features a large cooking area for the chef, eight individual cooking stations suitable for one or two people, and a large teak working table and chairs that can accommodate all participants. The open-air dining pavilion offers spectacular views of tree-lined mountains, extensively landscaped gardens and a waterfall, and is a perfect venue for guests to enjoy the dishes created during the class. An array of essential Asian ingredients, such as lemongrass, ginger, galangal, turmeric and garlic, are on display in the school's herb garden.
