Hi everyone, I am new member in this group, thank you.

I am planning to visit Thailand this coming July to study Thai cuisine in Bangkok, is anyone can recommend a certified culinary school in this capital city. I am not looking for an elite and expensive school, very low budget I have had in my pocket and one more thing, do I have to come with a visiting visa or student visa Please advice, thank you so much beautiful people.

I would say just get a single entry tourist visa from the thai consulate in your country before you come here and you'd be good for 60 days when you arrive and could extend that by 30 more days once you're here

It all depends how long your planning on staying. You don't need any special visa to go to a cookery school.

All you need in that case is a simple 60 day tourist visa and extend it for 30 days at an immigration office.
