Family loved the cooking class
We had a fantastic cooking class at Paper Tiger! Our instructor, Channy, was great. Our children, aged 11 and 14, loved the experience. The food we made was delicious!

Definitely recommend - great choices available!
We had Sinuon as our teacher and she was great! She provided a menu with 2 options for starter and three options for the main course. We chose this cooking class due to this choice, she let us know that we could even choose something different to one another as well. We had the mango salad, spring rolls, loc lac and fried banana. Sinuon was great at talking us through the steps and demonstrating for us. Afterwards, we sat down and ate our delicious meal. It was a lot of food so they provided a takeaway box which was greatly appreciated! Thanks so much :)

Cooking with Channy!
I had a wonderful time cooking with Channy! From our short tour of the nearby market to plating the finished dishes, Channy was an excellent guide. She was a patient teacher who explained each step carefully. The result was a delicious meal of fresh spring rolls, fish amok, and fried bananas with passion fruit sauce. This class was a great way to experience Cambodian culture in a deeper way.

We had a great time
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful experience at Paper Tiger Restaurant! The food was delicious, the staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was great. We especially enjoyed the cooking class—it was fun, interesting, and a great way to learn more about Cambodian food. Our teacher, Sinuon, was fantastic! She was friendly, patient, and made the class really enjoyable. We loved learning from her and would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Siem Reap! 🇰🇭❤️

Enjoy good food and fun while cooking
We had the best time with Sinuon cooking traditional Cambodian dishes. She was such a delight to chat and cook with. Sinuon has a great sense of humor and made the whole experience such fun. After cooking the dishes of our choice we were able to indulge in our creations with an included cocktail and 5 star service. I can not recommend this tour enough for a great time solo, as a couple or with family and friends.

Why this scores 88
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Award-Winning Cooking Class Experience with Professional Teacher: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Siem Reap.
How much does Award-Winning Cooking Class Experience with Professional Teacher cost?
+
Prices start at $20 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Siem Reap usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Award-Winning Cooking Class Experience with Professional Teacher take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Siem Reap is not rushed.
Is Award-Winning Cooking Class Experience with Professional Teacher worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 825 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Siem Reap, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Award-Winning Cooking Class Experience with Professional Teacher?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Award-Winning Cooking Class Experience with Professional Teacher suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 5. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Award-Winning Cooking Class Experience with Professional Teacher?
+
Around 289 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Siem Reap can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Siem Reap and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Award-Winning Cooking Class Experience with Professional Teacher start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Siem Reap within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Siem Reap?
+
On Outty we rank every Siem Reap experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Small-Group and Guide tours, Angkor Wat full Day 'Small Group with sunset & Tour Guide, Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Tour with Guide from Siem Reap. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Siem Reap?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Siem Reap?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
