Hi Red,
Some friends of ours did a cooking course at the Club Andaman Beach Resort. I don't know how much it was, but the food looked great and you cook outdoors near the swimming pool. They had a great time, and the food tasted great! You can look it up on their website, http://www.clubandaman.com under activities.

I am not certain, as we were staying there, but you could send them an email or just go there and ask, I am sure you would be able to do it.

Hi Red
Have made a couple of 'half hearted' enquiries re this myself but only with a couple of the hotels, being the Holiday Inn & Patong Merlin. As a 'fabulous thai cooking forum member' (speak up or forever hold your peace) advised me, you need to be slightly wary of the hotels' cooking classes as you may end up teaching them a thing or two. Oh, BTW this is for my husband, not me - I'm going shopping! Info received as follows:
Holiday Inn - "Cooking class will organized ever day with Baht. 1,600 / class / person and we plan to implement the Master Cooking class might be implement in this October 2007 please contact us for more information in September 2007."
Patong Merlin - "700bt per person, available on Tuesday and Friday @ 2pm. We offer 2 dishes out of 5 *Sweet and sour prawns *Tom Yam Goong *Tom Kha Kai *Garlic and pepper prawns *Fried chicken and cashew nut and dried chilli"
As SteveR has mentioned, Pums Cooking School has had some pretty good reviews, if anyone has any info re costs and details, would love to hear!
Cheers Tiff xxx

Hi all, I am speaking now so i don't ever have to hold my piece. There are many places to do Thai Cooking classes in Phuket and most of the hotels do them for a small cost. Be careful though as although i am a pretend cook i showed the Thai chef at the Horizon beach hotel a thing or two and he was trying to copy my style. (not quite that bad but not to far from the truth) as Tiffo said the plumb school is supposed to be very popular, Goggle the site. Also Mom Tri's Boat house is also supposed to be very good http://www.momtrisboathouse.com/ oh and thanks for the complement Tiff!!! Cheers Pete.
