Lao cuisine, known for its reliance on the freshest produce and a range of unique flavours often unfamiliar to Western palates, offers a delightful culinary adventure. This late afternoon cooking course at a picturesque lakeside location is an ideal way to uncover the secrets of Lao cooking.
Your guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel at 1530 and transfer you to the Tamarind Cooking School for an evening class. At the school, expert chefs will first demonstrate how to prepare authentic Lao dishes. Then, you'll have the chance to try your hand at cooking these local specialities. Slice, pound, and cook each dish using traditional methods. You'll also receive a cookbook to take home, allowing you to practice your new skills and relive your Lao culinary experience.
After a few hours of cooking and savouring the delightful aromas, you'll enjoy a delicious dinner featuring your own creations. Following the meal, your guide and driver will provide a private transfer back to your hotel, with an expected return around 2100. If you'd prefer to be dropped off at a bar in town and make your own way home, simply discuss this with your guide. Note: The class is closed on Saturdays and Sundays.
