Hadrian1 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 These used to offer a longer course but I don't know if the school is still being run: http://www.gourmetthailand.com I did hear good and not so good reports about them. I have heard of an Asian cookery school in Canada if that might be of interest. Let us know if you find something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your reply, i checked out your information and even if it is operating it seems to expensive because it combines cookery classes with a holiday resort and i don't need that as i am living i Thailand for quite sometime. I have however found this cooking school and would wounder if ANYONE could comment on this venue. www.wandeethaicooking.com Thanks again Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley'sLife Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 www.wandeethaicooking.com If teaching in English language is essential, then the above is unsuitable. They state quite clearly on their website that all teaching is in Thai language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabaijai Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 There's the rub. The best courses are in Thai only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcus Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 On Samui : http://www.sitca.net/thai_cooking_school.htm Probably it will be cheaper if you hire a Thai Chef for a month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their longer chef courses are in Thai.......but there are shorter courses.....just a few dishes which are in English but these I wouldn't be suitable for learning to be a chef. It's a real shame. I would be interested in one of those courses too if they were in English Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WujouMao Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 as i'm going to thailand next weekend, i had thought about going to a cookery class. yes, i know i'm a tourist, and yes, i know the cost of the class is expensive as it lasts a short amout of time. but is it the real deal? i love my spice and so i wouldnt want a fobbed off thai meal. i would like to use lots of thai ingredients but i have a feeling this wouldnt be the case. could anyone tell me if they have joined one of these classses before. if tis the real deal or just the normal tourist run of the mill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siamesekitty Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Wandee seems good, I was considering taking their professional cook course. I called them and found that their schedule is very flexible, each student has his/her own cooking station, and the instructor walks around observing the students as they prepare the food, and provides individual instruction if you're having trouble. You also get a proper certificate from the Ministry of Education, in English. However, as mentioned above, I believe it is in Thai. But you could always pay for my course and have me translate for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
