What you'll do
If you've ever wanted to know how to master curry pastes and the perfect Tom Yum soup this Thai cooking class in Brisbane is where you need to be.
During this three-and-a-half-hour hands-on cooking class, you'll be led by an experienced chef and will create a three-course feast to share.
The menu for the day will be dependent on the season, but you'll pick up essential tips like how to make your own curry paste from scratch, what goes into mastering Thai desserts and so much more.
Classes are interactive and hands-on, interactive cookery courses, designed for those with a passion for cooking but are perhaps lacking the necessary skills or confidence to absolutely shine! You should not be spending hours slaving away in the kitchen, cooking can be fun, creative, fulfilling and rewarding.
You also get to enjoy a feast of all the delicious food we prepare, so your lesson will be a delicious culinary adventure!
Authentic Thai Menu:
- Tom Yum Soup from scratch... our personal favourite!
- Pad Thai Noodle with prawn/veg/chicken.
- Authentic Thai Beef Salad - plus learn how to balance the perfect Thai dipping sauce.
Please note:
- The menu is based on available seasonal produce and is subject to change at the experience provider's discretion. You will not have your own workstation but will work in small groups with some of the lesson being demonstration, and some of the lesson being hands-on.
- Please advise us of any dietary requirements in advance! The class is held in a fully licensed venue so you are unable to BYO.
Note: Groups of four or more guests will get their own private table.

Our teacher Tong was fun, knowledgeable and very hands on ensuring every group were doing tasks the right way, using knives safely etc. The whole support crew were amazing, preparing our ingredients, cleaning up used utensils.

A fantastic evening. Recipes provided will be used often. Given many extra hints throughout the class . Even learning how to crack an egg, one handed. We were fortunate to have Tong as our teacher, with his smile and effervescent personality, definitely made the experience so enjoyable. Keen to return for further classes.
Natalie Hedges • Sep 2020
Awesome class with teacher Tong. Entertaining and food tasted divine. Great atmosphere. Would definitely take another class. 5 stars
