A well run cooking course, where one learns how to make true Laos food. A worthwhile experience, where you learn to make about 6 dishes yourself, and then get to eat it all...Yummy! Better yet, its run in a gorgeous lush environment out of town, where they take you, after going on a local market visit.

Well organised with plenty of equipment, charcoal stoves and lots of helpful staff. Joy was a great teacher with a nice sence of humour. We prepared and... More
