We had an amazing time at Shailini’s class! The food we prepared was delicious and she was so kind to send us detailed receipts so we can recreate Thai dishes for future dinners. Would 100% do it again!

My daughter and I enjoyed a wonderful evening. Chef Shalini is a warm host who was well prepared to teach us about Thai Cuisine. We made 6 dishes including my favorite Cashew Chicken. The four hours went by so fast and we enjoyed the wonderful meal in her beautiful dining room. the evening ended with Sticky rice mango dessert. I would recommend for a mother/daughter evening or for groups.
