Even though our business has seen tremendous growth, we have decided that this small class size maintains the personalization and individual attention that each student deserves. Yui (Siripen Sriyabhaya), Thailand's international TV chef still teaches every dish in every class to guarantee the highest quality of instruction. Her expertise attracts a variety of students such as, TV chefs, executive chefs, culinary school teachers, international Thai cooking instructors, food columnists, cookbook authors, tourists, and food lovers.Yui's unique blend of art and science truly make cooking exciting, fun, and easy to follow. When students cook these delicious dishes in class, they are equipped with the skills and knowledge to be able to recreate these dishes at home. « less

We could not have been happier with our decision to take Yui's cooking class at A Lot Of Thai. We were looking for an authentic experience to learn Thai cooking and that is exactly what we got! She is very hands-on and keeps her classes at no more than 8 people so that she can give every student the proper... More

After a little mix-up with pickup, we were taken to Yui's family home and shown our individual cooking stations. The entire class is set up and run very well, as I will explain below. After an introduction to our instructor, Yui, and a great informative lesson on how and why the ingredients were chosen and cooked in certain ways we... More

We had an awesome time in this cooking class! Yui is such a character! She walks you through all the steps of each dish and then has you try it yourself. Along the way, Yui also provides great cooking tips and strategies. The cookbook she provides is also really cool! It has a ton of recipes and information on Thai... More

We extended our stay in Chiang Mai to take 3 days of the short course with Yui. We totally enjoyed each day learning different cooking techniques, more about the different dishes, the importance of the order of the ingredients, and the amazing tastes of all the fresh ingredients. Meeting Kwan, Yui, their daughter, and their neighbor boy (about 10 years... More

I don't have words to describe how amazing is this cooking class in Chiang May. Yui is a great teacher and person! The home atmosphere of the class makes you feel good to learn a lot of tricks and delicious dishes of the Thai food. I don't know the others cooking classes in Thailand, but this one I can certify,... More

We were very pleased with our choice to take a cooking class at A Lot of Thai during our stay in Chiag Mai. There are a lot of classes offered there but a friend had recommended this class because of the sensible format and the dynamic chef/teacher. He was right. We started the morning cooking ...all the ingredients were prepped... More

Spent the day with Yui and learned to make a few Thai dishes. It was like being on a cooking show, with excellent instruction and ample ingredients. At the end a cookbook is given. The time visiting the local market was interesting as well. Truly a great experience with Yiu and her passion for Thai food.

This is my second time cooking with Yui and I just loved it. She is so passionate about Thai fresh ingredients and cooking them to perfection and I learnt so much from her. She is a wealth of knowledge and generously shares this with her fellow cooks. Her stories about her life and growing up are just wonderful to hear... More

Booking this class, I truly didn't know what to expect. We were very pleasantly surprised! The environment was great at her home. All dishes were delicious and easy to learn; I have been able to recreate them since I have been back. Yui is a fantastic teacher and extremely entertaining and genuine. Highly recommended, enjoy. :) Sawadeeka

I enjoyed a deliciously delectable day at the A Lot Of Thai Cooking School with celebrity chef Yui. Her home on Kampoon Road is a testament to the person she really is. Like her cooking, she is a complex blend of the old and new Thailand. Steeped in a past that has its humble beginnings as a farmer, she relentlessly... More
