The duration of a Thai cooking class with traditional and streetfood dishes is 3 hours. First, I introduce myself and tell you about my Asian roots and passion for Southeast-Asian cuisines.
You learn about specific flavors, aroma's, history, uses and combinations of key ingredients of Thai cuisine.
I guide you step by step how to combine these ingredients, and to cook Thai curry pastes, and various delicious and tasteful dishes.
Finally, you enjoy the dishes that you have cooked yourself, thān h̄ı̂ xr̀xy na (enjoy your meal)!
"Incredible experience and Thai flavors"
We chose the Thai food workshop, the experience was very pleasant, full of stories and the flavors! Super recommend!
My mission is to make Thai cuisine accessible to everyone. I often notice that my guests think that:
"We asked David to host a Thai cooking workshop for a group of 14 people. Within the 3.5 hours, my colleagues and myself had learned a lot about the Thai ingredients and cuisines from David. Most importantly, our team had so much fun cooking together. It's a great activity for teambuilding."

"I am far from what they call a 'master chef' but David gave really nice, clear instruction and I was far more engaged that I ever expected considering it was online. The workshop took 2 hours but the time really flew and I genuinely learned a lot about Thai cooking, the origin of the ingredients and some neat tricks I have already used in my own time. A really nice team activity or night with friends."
Very nice, tasty and cozy!
"How nice to cook something different! We attended the Thai workshop and made delicious dishes. Also nice to not make 'standard' Thai dishes, but something completely different. There were two of us (RIVM guideline) which was very pleasant. David gave an excellent explanation about the ingredients, where to buy in Amsterdam, and of course how to prepare them. Highly recommended and always fun.... and especially now in Corona a nice and cozy outing!"
I use different locations for my Thai cooking classes, depending on format and group size:
I always provide private cooking classes for groups from 4 to 6 people at Vrijheidslaan 26-1 in Amsterdam. I have a large kitchen where guests can both cook and dine. Expect a relaxed living room setting.
I always provide private cooking classes for groups from 8 to 20 people, team outings, and open group cooking classes at Bilderdijkstraat 175h in Amsterdam (Gallery 3). During the day this is a lunch restaurant, and in the evening I use this location for my cooking classes. Expect a relaxed restaurant setting.
Cooking classes for groups larger than 20 people are also possible. For these groups I use various cooking studios in and around Amsterdam. Curious about the possibilities? Send me a message via the contact form and I will contact you shortly!
