Recent reviews of Thai Cooking: Pad Kee Mao with Handmade Rice Noodles

• 5/5 from Ann Hurst, attended Oct 2026: Another fabulous class. I love Thai food and she has so much knowledge and makes everything so easy to follow and do. She is a great teacher. The food was wonderful too! Bring more new Thai dishes on
• 5/5 from Leah M Stussy, attended Oct 2026: I learned great techniques in a fun environment! Chef Angelina was awesome and taught us Thai cooking
• 4/5 from James Garcia, attended Oct 2026: I took this class because this is one of my favorite dishes and I had tried to make it a few times previously with not the best results. The final product from this class was amazing - I’d say it was restaurant level. The instructor was energetic and had a very friendly attitude. The reason I am giving 4 stars (instead of 5) was the pace of the class. The instructions for making the noodle went REALLY fast. There are certain people who need time to listen and watch first (which happened during the main dish preparation). So if anything, I’d suggest slowing the first part down. Also - the knives weren’t very sharp but the assistants were very quick to get new ones.
• 5/5 from Bryan Chambers, attended Sep 2026: I bought the tickets for my and my husband's 20th Anniversary. He loves to cook and I wanted to do something together. It was so fun! Angelina is a great teacher. She made sure everyone had a good experience. Our cooked dish was delicious!
• 5/5 from Eva Schiavenato, attended Sep 2026: I went with a group of friends and had a great time. The instructor was super knowledgeable and friendly. The recipe was familiar to me but I never made it. I learned new techniques and shopping tips. Dinner came out great and I’m confident I can replicate it at home. This was my first class at Kitchen Engin but it won’t be the last!
• 4/5 from Ryan Faulkner, attended Sep 2026: The class content was great! The delivery was a little on the fast side. If there were a few more times/ pauses for people catch up and learn it would help. It was inspiring and convincing to go pick up a wok. Thank you
• 5/5 from Kaycee Downey, attended Aug 2026: Class was great and engaging, even when trying to teach a very difficult task (rice noodles). Will be looking to attend more classes from this instructor.
• 5/5 from Judy Clipperton, attended Aug 2026: Teacher and assistants were very attentive and helpful.
• 5/5 from Robyn L. Hoffenberg, attended Aug 2026: This occasion was just for me to learn how to cook a simple noodle meal. Teacher was great and maybe I’ll take another class with her.
• 4/5 from Mark Terry, attended Aug 2026: Teacher knew her stuff, good presentation I think that it was a waste of time making noodles, unless you don’t have access to an Asian store. Stir fry was delicious! I’ll make that again.
• 5/5 from Brett Eckenrod, attended Jul 2026: Went for my first class and it was great! Made fresh rice noodles and great food. Not highly technical and perfect for the home cook. Will attend again
• 5/5 from Jocelyn Cook, attended Jul 2026: The setup was great. My husband and I had lots of room to work together and the instructor was lovely. She provided lots of extra information and walked around and helped. All of the groups were spread out enough for there to be room for everyone to talk if they wanted to or to just stay in their own space. It was great. We are already looking for new classes to take.
• 5/5 from Whitley Jones, attended Jul 2026: Okay first, 100/10! My mom and I took the Pad Kee Mao class and it was such a fun experience! The chef gave clear, easy to follow instructions and was so helpful every step of the way. I never felt lost! The food was abbsolutelyyyyy to die for and I can’t wait to come back for another class!
• 5/5 from Rachel Sasseville, attended Jul 2026: Flew in from Savannah, GA to visit my family and took my mom to this class. We had an EXCELLENT time and learned so much. Angelina was very knowledgeable and a natural teacher. Wish I lived closer- I'd take classes all the time.
• 5/5 from Susan Stickney, attended Apr 2026: So much fun and learning Angie was so full of cooking and cultural knowledge and made learning so enjoyable.
• 5/5 from Heather Brennan, attended Apr 2026: Super fun hands on cooking class! The noodles were easier to make than I expected and lots of great feedback from the instructor. The food was excellent and a dish I will make again. Would highly recommend!
• 5/5 from Buffy Nustad, attended Apr 2026: Instructor was really great! I loved her backstory and connection to Thailand. Her sharing about herself really added to the authenticity of the experience. I feel like I could make that dish at home now!
• 5/5 from Taylor Wilkens, attended Apr 2026: This class was a birthday gift from family. We learned to cook Drunken Noodles and made the Noodle from scratch. It was a terrific class!
• 5/5 from Robyn Brown, attended Apr 2026: It was a great experience! It would have been nice to have the cooking tips that she shared while going through the recipe, written on the recipe. It was hard to write those things down while cooking. Also add the sauces brand names on the recipe. It was wonderful though and learned a lot about the difference between Thai and Chinese and the variety of dishes you can make with so few ingredients.
• 4/5 from Suzie Henning, attended Apr 2026: Good class. Able to adapt for dietary needs which is something I appreciated. Great tips for how to adapt with different ingredients from the Asian markets in town. I wish it were easier to convey dietary needs and restrictions in the registration process. I also wish the store would have opened 10 minutes earlier since it delayed the class start time by 15 minutes.
• 4/5 from Julie Knight, attended Apr 2026: The teacher and assistants were great, as was the yummy food! Only issue is our burner was not stable and lop sided, thus affecting the outcome of our noodles. And shut off randomly? Other than that, really enjoyed the atmosphere and knowledge we gained. Id just say when you're paying that kind of money, the tools should be 100% ready and set up properly.
• 5/5 from Sheryl Sweeney, attended Feb 2026: Delicious meal. Easy to hear the instructions and follow along. Kitchen was setup very well and enough staff to give assistance.
• 5/5 from Gail Dieringer, attended Feb 2026: I learned a new trick for slicing onions and got to try making noodles, even though they didn’t turn out so well. I was very happy to have professional noodles to use in our stir fry, and it turned out just like the restaurant! Also, plenty of food so I have lunch for tomorrow. I also appreciated having a chair, because I have bad feet and was worried about standing so long. Super fun, would love to do it again sometime!
• 4/5 from Lisa French, attended Feb 2026: It was a nice glass. I’d appreciate knowing ahead that we’d be working in trams, sharing stations. The teacher seemed a bit harsh in the senses that basically no one’s noodles were working and she would chuckle and give every reason but no one ever got the hang of it. She seemed to almost yell at us what to do and didn’t give a lot of time…it felt like a race and then we finished 50 min early… The burners had trouble and needed relighting and new butane in many instances. The food was really good.
• 5/5 from Jennifer Johnston, attended Jan 2026: My partner and I love doing experiences to celebrate our anniversary, and this was this year’s celebration. The class was accommodating to our vegan diets and we learned how to make wide rice noodles which was a very cool experience that we can’t wait to try at home. The teacher was helpful and very knowledgeable with this dish. I have two bits of constructive feedback. First, the working stations felt cramped. The clipboard with recipes took up valuable space and I didn’t think were needed until AFTER cooking was complete. It also turned out to be a potential fire hazard when someone’s stove mid-behaved! The second piece of feedback is the disposable dishes to hold ingredients. Our oil was in a small disposable plastic container and tipped over easily making a mess. More durable vessels to hold ingredients could maybe prevent this, plus not using single-use items would be all-around less wasteful. All in all we loved our experience and the food was delicious!
• 4/5 from Mary Wiegand, attended Jan 2026: Class was fun and meal we made was enjoyable. Slightly more fast paced than expected.
• 5/5 from Kayla Shifty, attended Dec 2025: Our 1 year wedding anniversary! Angie was great as an instructor!!! The meal was interesting, something we wouldn’t normally make at home, but now we feel confident to try.
• 5/5 from Linda Penfield, attended Dec 2025: Thank you for bringing Angoe in to teach the Pad Kee Mao class. She's a great teacher! Angie taught me how to create an awesome traditional Thai dish that I'm looking forward to trying out at home tomorrow evening. By paring Nick and Angie, the Kitchen Engine has created a dynamic duo in Thai cooking. Please keep up the great work! Five stars and two thumbs
• 5/5 from Beverly Hubbard, attended Sep 2025: It was so much fun! A great teacher! The food was great! Can't wait to make it at home!!
• 5/5 from Roberta Choma, attended Sep 2025: Angelina was an enthusiastic and well -organized chef in teaching us how to make Thai Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles). The cooking assistants were ready to lend a hand with ingredients and troubleshooting device operation. The food was delicious as well, and something I could try at home. Angelina provided local resources for Asian specialty sauces and produce.
• 4/5 from Michael Greenburg, attended Sep 2025: Food was very good and instructions clear! The pacing felt very fast and rushed though.
• 5/5 from Kathryn Astell, attended Aug 2025: We went for a girls night out, and belated birthday present. Angie was lovely! We enjoyed the class and the food we prepared was delicious. We will schedule another day to come!
• 5/5 from Lizzie Hval, attended Aug 2025: Angie was so sweet and we absolutely loved learning about Thailand and Thai cooking!! The dish was amazing and they were able to make modifications for my mom and I because we were gluten free. Not only was angie a great cook but also was so much fun to listen to and an overall adorable human!! Such a blast!
• 5/5 from Candace Halvorson, attended Jul 2025: Angie was a rockstar. She was so helpful and willing to answer questions, and it was very obvious how much she loved sharing her knowledge and skills. I would 100% recommend.
• 5/5 from Paul Koenigs, attended Jul 2025: Outstanding class. Angie was very knowledgeable and organized; provided excellent individual help throughout. Very enthusiastic about Thai cooking. I am inspired to cook her recipe more than most cooking classes I’ve taken. Would definitely take any other classes she teaches.
• 5/5 from Cindy Schultz, attended Jul 2025: Teacher was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Food was delicious. I would love another Thai class in the future. We t was nice to have the recipe next to us with a pen to take notes but they got food on them and I would have liked a better spot for the paper to stay clean.
• 5/5 from Ryan Glasunow, attended Jul 2025: Great class and really cool to learn how to make handmade rice noodles. Ended up tasting way better than any Thai restaurant in Spokane.
• 5/5 from Shivapriya Narayanan, attended Jul 2025: The class was great. Angie was amazing. I would love to return for other classes.
• 5/5 from Karla Anne Roshetko, attended Jul 2025: My son and I did the Thai cooking (drunken noodle) class today and it was amazing! So much fun and very fluid considering it was the head chefs first time doing the class. Was easy to understand but definitely challenging enough to stay focused and engaged.
