I am a solo traveller and really wanted to come to Chiang Mai for some cooking lessons. There are plenty of cooking schools there, but I believe this one to be the best. I spent 3 days with Yui, in the courtyard of her home. Yui has a great humor and makes you feel very welcome. She explains the ingredients... more

My husband and I spent one of our favorite days of our trip to Thailand at A lot of Thai. This is an experience that keeps on giving. We were in Chiang Mai in February, and have prepared several fantastic meals for our friends since we've returned home. We are reminded of the wonderful time we had during our day... more

We were so glad we chose A Lot of Thai as the cooking school we attended while in Chiang Mai! A small school run at a private residence by a wonderful cook, teacher and humanitarian Yui, with the help and support of her husband Kwan along with occasional guest appearances by their two young children. We were picked up at... more

One of our favourite SE Asia experiences was Yui's cooking class. It was fun, personal, interactive, delicious, and gave us great insight into one local's passion for food, education and environmentalism. Not only was it extremely well organized and hands down the best food we ate during our three weeks in SE Asia, conversing with Yui was an unexpected bonus.... more

My husband and I went on 'A Lot of Thai' cookery course because we had read the recommendations on Trip Advisor. We weren't disappointed! Yui, our teacher, spoke excellent English and taught us all about the ingredients for Thai cookery. She advised us about what ingredients we would be able to buy in our home countries and offered substitutes for... more

Small class sizes in the coutryard of a family home. A patient instructor with a wicked sense of humour. One of the first in Chiang Mai to compile a cookbook and website. So much food, you will be stuffed by mid-afternoon. Fantastic way to spend the day! more

I have to admit, I was wary of doing a cooking class during the trip. I don't cook. I can barely boil water! But the hubby was really into it, so I booked it based on some recommendations from friends, colleagues and internet research. WOW I sure am glad we went ahead with this. It was such a wonderful day... more

Deeeeeeeeeeeear everyone, A lot of Thai is WONDERFUL. This family is amazing. They treat you like family and they are a beautiful example of the Thai people and culture. The food you cook is doable and unbelievably delicious. Yui has really thought the program through and she is an amazing person as well as chef and teacher. You can't beat... more

Four of us went for a day at "A Lot of Thai". The day started out with being picked up in an old VW van as we were whisked off to Yui's house for a day of food and fun. This is a small family business they run in the small side yard of their home that houses four generations... more
