Evening in Bangkok: Thai Curry & Papaya Salad

Description

Take a trip to Bangkok for the evening in this hands-on and exclusive small group cooking class with Chef Manifa, whose extensive travel and living abroad experiences in Hong Kong and Bangkok add authentic touch to her cooking and recipes.

Master the tips and tricks of creating the most delicious, classic Thai dishes: Red Curry with Tofu and/or Shrimp and Green Papaya Salad with Lime Dressing. From chopping and slicing, to simmering and seasoning, then finally plating and indulging, this is an ultimate culinary experience that will transport you to a bustling and vibrant street of Thailand. Once you have finished creating your masterpieces, everyone will raise their glass and we will cheer to the fruits of our labor! Chef will provide prepared rice to go along with your curry and papaya salad. Chef Manifa is only accepting up to 8 people for each class so this is a perfect occasion for a romantic date night, a team building event, or a unique family get-together.

No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you don’t already have them in your home kitchen. Find out about our favorite resources in Los Angeles for sourcing ingredients and basic equipment for recreating the menu at home. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who’s happier observing and assisting.

Please arrive on time, wearing your mask. Guests are invited to bring their own wine, beer, or champagne.

This was such a great experience overall. Manifa was very knowledgeable about Thai culture and injected that into a fun, learning experience. The dishes we made were a perfect balance of simple, yet complex and I walk away from this with a new found appreciation for Thai cuisine! I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to learn more about cooking with spice, as well as someone who is just looking for a fun time.

Manifa welcomed us into her home with delicious Thai iced tea and the warmest energy. We had a really awesome time with the other couple who was in the class and everything was relaxed. At the end of the class we ate around Manifa’s kitchen table and told travel stories! She is so knowledgeable and professional and we learned a lot about curry making. At the same time, I feel I made a friend. Thanks for the great experience!

I had such a great experience. Manifa is not just a great chef but a great teacher. We learned how to bring out the best of each ingredient and build the dish, not just combine everything in a pot. How to adjust the flavors to get what you wanted out of it. I enjoyed the small class size and sitting to eat together at the end. A most enjoyable class. Daniel.

Amazing class! Manifa took the time to explain each ingredient and how it creates the flavor of what ended up being an incredible meal. I’m a pretty inexperienced cook, my boyfriend more intermediate, and it managed to meet both our satisfaction. Highly recommended experience.

Our evening with Chef Manifa was amazing!!! Truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. Chef Manifa was so kind and welcomed us warmly into her beautiful home! From the start, we felt as if we were visiting a friend's house for dinner, rather than attending a cooking class. We really appreciated how intimate and small the class size was, especially since it allowed everyone to interact so naturally with each other and learn a little bit about each other while also learning some new cooking techniques. From the small details such as how to cut and prepare certain vegetables, using special ingredients and the science behind them to learning how to perfectly bring everything together from start to finish, we felt that we learned an wealth of new knowledge about cooking some amazing Thai dishes. We never have cooked something so delicious like the feast that Chef Manifa taught us how to prepare, and for that we are forever grateful. Chef Manifa didn't make us feel like standard clients whatsoever, but rather made us feel like friends and we truly enjoyed getting to learn more about her and her culinary finesse. We seriously cannot wait to meet with her again and continue to learn more from her. Thank you for everything, Chef!
