I cant recommend this tour enough - it was a fantastic morning learning about and tasting dishes from different areas of Thailand.
There were 3 adults and 2 kids in our party. We were met at reception by Leigh and our guide Cream. Cream is a wonderful guide, so knowledgeable and so willing to answer any questions, on top of that she is great with the kids as well.
1st stop was for noodles, three type of soup and one dish which was dried noodles. Also deep fried quail eggs and minced pork. Cream took the time to answers all question including the use of the various condiments.
Then on to a lovely garden setting for Isan food, chicken, sticky rice, soup, pork. After that we were taken to a restaurant specialising in norther dishes, sorry no photos of that as the food was demolished before the camera could come out, there were various types of spiced sausage, Pad Thai and Khao Soi. All very tasty and again Cream was informative and engaging the whole time.
Finally the Cat Caffe, with mid blowing Ice Cream and great Coffee.
Coconut Ice Cream with egg yolk and sweetcorn - sound mad - tastes fantastic. Ice Cream will never taste the same back home.
Then before heading back to the hotel a little tour round some fruit stalls where we could try and buy all sorts of fresh and dried fruits.
One piece of advise - don't have a big breakfast before this tour. There is so much food, all of it really tasty.
Cream made the tour even more special. Always willing to answer any questions and impart information. She was great with the kids as well.
100% do this trip if you get the chance.
