点评:Short version: What an awesome experience – highly recommended when in Phuket.
Longer version: Two of us took a half-day cooking class at the Blue Elephant Cooking School in Phuket earlier this month while in Phuket for three days, and it was the highlight of our time there.
The restaurant and grounds are beautiful and serene. We started with a short walk with Chef Nikky to the local market where she entertained and educated us about the staple foods of Thai cuisine.
Back at Blue Elephant, we each made four varied Thai dishes under Nikky’s guidance, learning a lot and having a lot of fun while doing so. She is warm, funny and personable and her English is impressive.The dishes were all kept hot and we got to eat them for lunch in the lovely restaurant there. The swag we received (I won’t spoil the surprise) was wonderful and it will be a great souvenir of an amazing experience. We learned that there is also a Blue Elephant Cooking School in Bangkok as well, but our travel person had suggested activities for us based on our interests, in each of the cities we visited, and we were certainly glad he had booked this experience in Phuket.
翻译:简版:这是一次超棒的体验——强烈推荐给来普吉岛的朋友。
详版:本月初,我们两人在普吉岛待了三天,期间在蓝象烹饪学校参加了半天的烹饪课程,这绝对是我们此行的亮点。
餐厅和周围环境优美宁静。课程伊始,我们跟随主厨Nikky漫步前往当地市场,她热情地为我们讲解了泰国菜的特色食材。
回到蓝象烹饪学校后,在Nikky的指导下,我们每人制作了四道不同的泰式菜肴,学习了很多知识,也玩得很开心。Nikky热情、风趣、平易近人,英语也说得非常棒。所有菜肴都保持着热气腾腾的状态,我们在学校漂亮的餐厅里享用了午餐。我们收到的纪念品(我就不剧透了)非常精美,将成为这段美好体验的绝佳纪念。我们了解到曼谷也有一家蓝象烹饪学校,但我们的旅行社工作人员根据我们的兴趣,在我们游览的每个城市都为我们推荐了一些活动,我们非常庆幸他为我们预订了普吉岛的这次体验。
