This was so much fun, but more importantly, something I will use. I absolutely love Thai food but it’s difficult to find where I live. Warren is an American expat who teaches the class and his Thai wife Lom is the final taste tester before anything goes out. She can discern if the smallest ingredient is missing or if anything needs adding. I gotta say, this food, which I COOKED, is better than many Thai restaurants I’ve visited. But come prepared with an empty belly because you’ll be eating four large, delicious, meals with every class.

9. Sai Kaew Beach
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By Maplelagjames - Callaway, United States
We found ourselves locked down for six months in Thailand staying in Jomtien and maybe not in love with the beach and water in Jomtien, friends suggested we give the Navy Beach or Sai Kaew a try. With a rented car, it was no problem at all and while a few hoops to go thru, it was fun and interesting and to see such nice well kept grounds. And the beach itself and the water were more than wonderful. It was so good we made the trip perhaps 30 plus times. The small restaurants had great food choices and more than fair prices. The whole fish at 400 baht was so good, I looked forward to that every time we went. I do not understand some of the negative whining comments some of made of this beach. They must feel very entitled. I can see it might be a chore if taking public transport, but it would not be the end of the world. I felt it was all of great value and that is why we kept repeating the experience so many times. When Covid is brought to heel, and tourism returns in a normal manner I cannot wait to return to Sai Kaew. At all times, we were treated with great respect by all the various Thai personnel involved in the various stations you must go thru from fee paying to chair rental. The beach and water were so nice, it gave great comfort to be able to enjoy this. Thanks so much to all involved. Jim at Maplelag in a very cold day here at minus 18 F below zero.
