• Bab Doukkala Mosque - The cooking class takes place at Khmisa Workshops, a traditional Moroccan house in the heart of the medina.

First, after discussing any food allergies and restrictions, the group will head to the local food market (souk), away from the touristic side of Marrakech. A short walk through the souk leads to the purchase of fresh groceries amidst market stalls filled with spices and local traditions.

Upon arrival at the workshops, guests are welcomed with traditional mint tea and learn all the steps of the ritual preparation before starting the cooking session.

The menu features the most typical Moroccan dishes, including starters, a main course, and one dessert. The preparation begins as a team effort, involving everyone and uncovering the secrets of Moroccan cuisine and spices. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available.

This is a shared session, with private sessions offered on demand. Guests may come individually or with a group. After cooking, there is time to taste the fruits of the meal that was prepared together.

For private sessions, please contact the operator directly.
