A great experience - A memorable time making the best chicken and rice I have had for a long time. Not to my merit, I must admit, but to detailed preparation and instructions by Chef Lamin who was kind, patient and with a big smile. Al Khayma Heritage House is also a very special place to visit.

Valuable experience! - It was very nice to attend the authentic Arabian breakfast lessons by chef LAMIN. I could experience the real cooking activity really enjoyed. One thing to add is would hv been better if I could get some resume so that I could get to know the name of the dish! It was a bit hard to memorize the name of the dish. Besides that I really enjoyed it

Excellent cooking class - Wonderful experience with Chef Lamin who taught how to cook beyond the actual recipe. You will cook plentiful so you will be able to enjoy it the day after as well :)

Too notch cooking class, great atmosphere - I always take a cooking class, when I travel, but this was one of the best. Led by Chef Lamin, it was not just learning how to cook an Emirati food, but actually skills that would improve me as a cook altogether. And the food was fantastic...and should make clear you prepare more than a meal, it lasted me for 3 days. Great vibe in the restaurant,atmospheric and super friendly staff.

Great Experience! - I really enjoyed the Emirati authentic cooking class! Chef Lamin was extremely friendly and made the class so informative and fun. He even took the extra time to teach me how to chop and dice properly and made sure to take plenty of photos for me. I had so much fun and will definitely book another class if I ever come back to Dubai. Highly recommend!!
