We had a blast! The place itself is wonderful with all the greeneries; being there is refreshing for a starter. It was our first time to attend a cooking class and we found this experience something to share and refer to our friends at home.

The environment is very beautiful, the masseurs are professional, and the mango sticky rice is delicious. This is the most satisfying massage parlor in Chiang Mai this time. I will come back next time~
