What you'll do

This cooking class in Sydney is a self-contained introduction to everything that you want to know about getting started in Thai cooking! You will see, touch and select the fresh ingredients for the class. This is where the chef will tell you the specific details about Asian vegetables and spices, how to identify them and how to get the most out of them. The class then moves on to class examining the grocery items from a typical Asian supermarket so you can find out where everything is and what it all means the next time you go shopping. The chef will demonstrate the courses to be cooked and answers any questions you may have. You will then break into small groups to prepare the meal under the guidance of the chef. On the menu:

Refreshments on arrival
Starter: Dhom kha (chicken and coconut soup)
Main: Fish fillet with three flavoured sauce
Dessert: Coconut and mango tapioca

When all is ready, we sit down and eat at a large single set table. After completing this cooking class in Sydney, you will have practical experience in food preparation, cooking and presentation. You will have the skills necessary to provide good food, inexpensively, with a minimum of effort. Importantly, you are also taught many of the short cuts that professional chefs use to produce great results quickly - a bonus for people on the go! Please note:

We operate with a maximum of 16 people per class and on the rare occasion where the minimum class number of 10 isn't reached, we will notify you at least three days prior with the chance to reschedule to a later date or participate in another of our classes.
Please advise of any special dietary requirements (we can cater to gluten-free or vegetarian but not vegan). This comes at no extra charge.

Recent reviews of Thai Cooking Class

5/5 from Mani Gemelas, attended Sep 2026: Great class, good technique, friendly chef
2/5 from Phillip Gemelas, attended Sep 2026: The chef was awesome and very accommodating but he was italian and wasn't a suitable fit to host a thai cooking class that was advertised. To say it was disappointing is an understatement especially when you've had great thai food in and around the area and extending that experience when we've travelled to thailand. I feel anyone booking a specific cooking class would appreciate it being authentic to the country of origin, especially when it comes to the chef, otherwise it looses its integrity before you even start. It was a 60th birthday gift with my 2 sons for something memorable and special but unfortunately this was far from that on many levels and left extremely disappointing, especially when it was such a milestone choice. On the positive side the chef is an asset and very competent in his efforts, but would definitely be an absolute amazing representative in italian cuisine Regards Phillip Gemelas 0419 220 419 Phillipgemelas@gmail.com
4/5 from Linzhi Wu, attended Jun 2026: I really enjoyed the Thai cooking class with Gabriel. He was a friendly and knowledgable teacher, showed us beginner friendly and practical tips in the kitchen and was very generous with his time. The class has definitely inspired me to go home and put some of these skills into practice.
5/5 from Clare Jennings, attended Mar 2025: The Thai class was fabulous. Chef Gabriel is so informative and I learned some great tips that I never knew regarding Thai ingredients. Great afternoon, would take another class next time I visit!
