Sa-Wud-Dee Ka (Hello in Thai), my name is Ladda. I learnt to cook Thai food from my grandmother. I cook Thai food almost every day.
“Let me show you how to cook real Thai food”
I am a volunteer Thai language and culture teacher as well as helping around in the kitchen at Bhuddhapatip Thai temple in Wimbledon.
I am very fond of cooking and willing to teach people. I am now retired and have time to help people learn about my culture, history and traditions.
“Thank you Ladda for a wonderful shopping and lesson experience. She is extremely knowledgable and interesting, both in Thai food and culture. We made two dishes, both right from scratch – buying the ingredients included. They were both wonderful and we look forward to learning more! Thanks again.” Beth, 2013
“Ladda was absolutely fabulous. She was very welcoming and helpfully had all the ingredients laid out for us to see what she was cooking. Her passion and knowledge about Thai food is exceptional and she made it all look very easy! She even said we could call and email her after the lesson and she would be happy to provide advice on our future cooking or even cook for us!!!” Leah, 2013
