Homies Thai Cooking School offers a full-day immersive experience that goes well beyond the kitchen. Classes begin with a trip to a local food market to source fresh ingredients, followed by a tuk-tuk ride to the school — giving participants a taste of Bangkok street life before the cooking even starts. Instructors including Ray, Nat, and Nut are consistently praised by visitors for being knowledgeable, patient, and engaging, making the experience welcoming for all skill levels and suitable for families with younger children.
A typical class covers four dishes: Tom Yum soup, Pad Thai, papaya salad, and mango sticky rice. Participants prepare each course themselves under guided instruction, learning the techniques and flavor balance that define Thai cuisine. Everything made in class is eaten as part of the session, so visitors leave both skilled and well-fed. The intimate setting allows for plenty of interaction with instructors and genuine insight into Thai culinary traditions.

We had a wonderful time cooking Thai food today! Ray and Nat were great instructors and incredibly kind and patient with our group, especially our 2 youngest chefs (7 and 8). I loved how they involved them and made sure they were safe throughout the process from prepping to cooking. We made delicious Tom Yum Goong, Pad Thai, Papaya Salad, and Mango Sticky Rice! Enjoyed everything from market to tuktuk ride to cooking and eating! Thank you Homies!!
it’s more than perfect! we not only made 4 courses from Tom Yum soup, Pat Tai, papaya salad to mango sticky rice, each one is fun and perfect! the market shopping, Tul tuk car ride… everything is so interesting. Our teacher Nut is really nice and helpful, my wife and I had a great time with lots of photos. Definitely recommend for all my friends!
Absolutely incredible experience!! We made pad Thai, mango sticky rice, Tom yum soup, and papaya salad and every course was incredible. Highly recommend in Bangkok :) RAY YOU ROCK
