Fantastic experience! Wan (Leong) is a patient teacher and true master at her craft, and both she and Larry took such great care of me and offered all kinds of insights about Bangkok (it’s my first time visiting). I really enjoyed my 6-hour session learning the basics of fruit and vegetable carving, an ancient and unique Thai practice. I now have major respect for the skill, patience and sheer effort it takes to make these masterpieces. I highly recommend a carving session with Wan if you’re in Bangkok and want a different and memorable experience.
Learning at Siam Carving Academy has been one of the most rewarding things I have done. I felt comfortable and at ease while learning. My skills have greatly improved and my confidence has risen as well. I can't recommend this experience enough!
Wow, what a find! In 3 hours I learned so many different and stunning carving techniques to transform tomatoes, cucumbers and carrots. Wan is an amazing teacher, such a beautiful, warm, patient person who went out of her way to help me. I really loved the carving afternoon and look forward to putting what I learnt into practice. Don't be put off by the building entrance, which initially looks empty, as you take a lift up into a comfortable area for the carving. You even get your very own carving knife to keep. I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area again.
This was a wonderful experience. My wife and I participated in a half-day vegetable carving workshop. We arrived 45 minutes early, and the instructor was able to help us get started in no time. The entire process took place in a comfortable environment, and the instructor provided appropriate support, allowing us enough time to complete our creations. It was a truly enjoyable experience.
Great day. I actually learned how to turn two tomatoes into a flower. Lots of others too with carrots and cucumbers Teacher was wonderful. Helping just enough with instructions and encouragement. This is a day to remember Now I can work on my own BUT I will be back for more advanced leanings when I master these skills
