Great cooking class with a local

Great moment of sharing about Moroccan cuisine and culture with Ahmed and Zakaria. We prepared a Moroccan salad, a vegetable tagine, and a clementine fruit salad. Everything was very well explained and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Ahmed and his cousin are very kind. Very beautiful experience. Go there with your eyes closed 😊

Must do experience just behind the souks in Marrakesh!

Thank you Ahmed and Zakaria for a lovely evening! Our group of four was perfect. The atmosphere was so friendly and our hosts couldn’t have done a better job. The food was delicious, we prepared a whole three course meal together. We can’t wait to visit again next time! :)

Great tagine lessons

I was warmly welcomed by Ahmed and Zakaria. Everything went extremely well, the explanation of the recipe of the tagine as well as Moroccan tea, the realization of the tagine, a little history on Moroccan culture, as well as lunch. Although having been alone during the course, I had a very good time, Ahmed and Zakaria are have done everything to make me comfortable. I highly recommend the course, it is a beautiful experience so much to learn to cook a traditional Moroccan dish as to exchange with locals. I will be back with friends during my next visit to Marrakech!

Operator response

Merci Raphaël pour votre message qui nous a remplis de joie ! C’est exactement ce que nous espérons créer à chaque cours, un moment authentique où la gastronomie marocaine se conjugue avec un vrai échange humain. Nous attendons votre retour avec impatience, accompagnée de vos amis cette fois-ci!!

The highlight of our visit to Marrakesh!

Fantastic experience, we stayed much longer than three hours just talking with Ahmed and his cousin Zakaria. The food was delicious, it was so fun to have the competition to see who poured the best cup of tea! Ahmed went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, even going so far as to offer to help me look for the best ceramics shop in the souks the following day. Would 100% recommend to anyone visiting Marrakesh - in fact, we recommended this experience to everyone we met for the rest of our trip.

Quiet kitchen for the family

We did the workshop with family (4 children from 11 to 16 years) Good experience for a good quiet time in Marrakesh: helpful and attentive chef. Cooking is simple, there is really no difficulty, we also learn how Moroccans eat tagine.

Operator response

Merci Chiara! Ce fut un plaisir de vous accueillir chez nous!! Vous êtes toujours les bienvenus!
