An amazing experience - not to be missed - What an amazing few hours. Picked up from the hotel (and dropped back) a twenty minute drive through the streets of Marrakesh to the owners home, which is beautiful and very traditional. You are met by an amazing team, prepare many dishes, bread (hobs) , vegetable tagine, chicken tagine, tomato and cucumber salad, aubergine dish (bit like babaganoush - apologies for the spelling) whilst it’s cooking you go upstairs for tea, biscuits and an introduction to spices. Open to all ages, there were some young children on the course who loved it. Highly highly recommend it.

A great day !!! - My wife and I attended a 3 - 4 hour cookery course which was fantastic. We were lucky in that we were the only 2 on the day so we had the teams undivided attention. Everybody was so friendly and we learnt a lot - we learnt to make a vegetable tagline, a chicken tagline, morroccan salad and many other delicious things …. which ultimately resulted in the most fantastic meal. If you are visiting Marrakech …. you must do this !!!

A personalized must in Marrakech - If you like authenticity and getting away from classic group tourism, if you like having sincere contact with the Marrakchis, you have to come here. In a clean setting, in marble, guided by a smiling cook, in addition to competence, after a real tea ceremony, you will prepare your bread, your Moroccan salad, your tagine and your pancakes. A moment of happiness, under the attentive and caring eye of Chef Lamai. I'll be back ! Quickly !
