Authentic Thai Cooking Class in Chiang Mai
with a Personal Touch
Choosing where to learn Thai cooking in Chiang Mai can feel overwhelming—there are many schools, many menus, and many promises. But at Asia Scenic Thai Cooking School, your experience begins with something simple and sincere: a personal touch.
Hosted by Gayle & Family since 2007, Asia Scenic offers two unique settings for your cooking journey:
a Secret Garden in the Old City, and an Organic Farm Retreat in the peaceful countryside.
Each location carries its own charm, but both share the same heart—warmth, creativity, and authentic Thai culture.
Organic Farm Escape – Garden to Table in Chiang Mai
For nature lovers, our countryside class offers a peaceful retreat surrounded by rice fields, open skies, and organic produce.
It’s the most scenic farm-to-table cooking class in Chiang Mai, designed for slow-life travelers, couples, and photography lovers seeking a deeper connection to nature.
Old City Sanctuary – Just a Short Walk from Thapae Gate
Convenience meets creativity in our Old Town class, located within walking distance from Thapae Gate.
This class is ideal for travelers who prefer comfort and flexibility.
Here, you’ll find a true kitchen garden in the middle of the city, where you can pick fresh herbs before cooking. With morning and evening sessions available, it’s perfect for solo travelers, families, and anyone with limited time.
You Choose, We Guide — Our Special Touch
At most cooking schools, menus are fixed. But Asia Scenic is different.
- We don’t follow fixed menus.
- You cook what you love.
Your teacher guides you with creativity and care, ensuring that every dish reflects your taste and your curiosity.
This freedom is the heart of our school—and one of the reasons countless travelers return to cook with us again.
Where Cooking Becomes a Story
It is a home. A garden. A kitchen full of stories.
Here, you don’t just learn recipes—you learn culture. You don’t just chop vegetables—you understand their roots. And you don’t just eat—you experience Thailand with all your senses.
Whether you join us in town or at the farm, you become part of our Asia Scenic family, where every dish is a memory and every moment is crafted with heart.
What Our Guests Say
We did the full-day course with Olive as our instructor, and it was one of the highlights of our honeymoon in Thailand. The class started with a tour of the local market, where Olive explained the herbs, spices and other ingredients used in Thai cooking. It was really interesting and full of useful information. After that we got hands-on and cooked 6 dishes ourselves, and we got to eat everything we made! We loved that we could choose our own dishes: three options each in the appetizer, stir-fried and soup sections, and five different curries to pick from. Everything we cooked was delicious, from the Khao Soi and Tom Yum to the Mango Sticky Rice at the end. Olive was fantastic. Her English was great, she explained everything clearly, she was very funny and she made the whole class relaxed and fun. We also got English recipes to take home, so we can cook it all again. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Chiang Mai. Thank you, Olive! 🙏
