What to expect

Your guide collects you from your hotel in an air-conditioned minivan. Once at the cooking school, you'll spend time at the markets or in the kitchen learning how spices are ground, pastes are made, and dishes are layered together. Expect hands-on work at every stage. You'll also tour the host's compound, spotting banana plants and learning which leaves and roots treat ailments. A fruit-carving demonstration follows—instructive rather than high-skill. By midday you'll sit down to eat the food you've prepared, then head to Sacred Monkey Forest for an hour or two before returning to your hotel.
