Great experience! Amazing cooking lesson, great apprenticeship. Before the experience I advise you to eat a very early or ligth breakfast if you in the morning class, because you need all the appetite for the delicious food you will cook. The teacher took great care and time explaining technique and all about the produce. I would love to get a copy of the written recipes, because while paying attention is hard to take notes.

It is very convenient to have a shuttle bus for pick-up. You need to fill out a form and choose the scent of essential oil before the massage. It is very clean and tidy. The masseur has good service and the pressure is also very good!

The experience was really amazing. The instructor was very helpful and gave clear directions on how to do the recipes. She also explained the ingredients and their origin that we used for cooking.

If you are a backpacker like me, the pick up service is really needed- hassle -free! The staff were so nice and the atmosphere was so cozy. You will be served a cold drink when you arrive (tastes a bit sour which is so freshening) and you will also have to fill in a health declaration form and circle the area where you would like the therpist to target on. The therapist is skillful and she would give you instructions about the next movement. I opted for the back and shoulder massage, the technique how the therpist pressed on my back was really 'spot on'. You will be served a hot tea with cookies after the massage. The driver will come back to the massage house to pick you up and drop you off at the hotel. Amazing!
