So fun and tasty - Edit
Did a morning class. Visited the nearby veg market (note there is meat here!) then proceeded to make 5 amazing Thai dishes. Good understanding of vegetarian vs vegan. Had no problems accomodating. My favourite was the tofu laab.

A lovely activity! 🌱 - Edit
This cooking school knows what vegan means! 🌱
Read moreBangkok. A busy city. At every corner you smell something new. Mostly, it’s not vegan friendly. But I knew that Thai food can be very vegan friendly! I tried many dishes, but now decided that it’s time to learn how to make these myself! Online I found Bangkok Thai Cooking Academy. From 5 hour beginner classes to proper 6 weeks professional chef 👨🍳 classes: they offer it all.
The class started at 1:15pm with a visit to a local market to get fresh ingredients for the cooking class. (There’s also a morning class!). Every participant was able to choose 5 dishes to make, from a selection of 31 dishes. I went for som tum aka green papaya salad, pad see ew (a noodle stir fry), massaman curry 🍛, stir fried tofu with cashew and mango sticky rice 🥭
The instructor spoke great English, explained everything so well and made sure to explain how to veganize the dishes that were being cooked (the class is together with omnis, who then use shrimp paste, fish sauce, chicken etc). Alternatives were mushroom sauce, tofu, and more!
All dishes each person cooked had to be eaten, of course. So after devouring 5 huge portions of food, I got on a motorcycle, went to my hotel, jumped in the pool, took a shower and took a big fat nap. 😴
Hope you liked this extensive review!
