I had an amazing cooking experience and I am someone who does not cook! The instructors were wonderful. I learned a lot about spices and flavors and left with the confidence to try the recipes on my own.

Amazing cooking experience today. We cooked the lamb tangine with prunes and almonds, taught at a pace to suit everyone in our class (7) .

Venue is clean and well presented, chefs and hosts took time to talk about the concept behind the charity .

Can’t recommend highly enough.

930-130 but could have stayed all day. Thankyou

It was amazing to see and hear the good things this organisation is doing for disadvantaged women in Morocco. Why would you not want to support such a good cause? My 3 year old daughter and I learnt to cook a chicken Tagine today and it was delicious, maybe one of the best I've had in Morocco. It's very children friendly and so nice to see my daughter getting involved in the preparation and cooking of food. She thoroughly enjoyed it!

If you can find this place (a little hidden!) you should go. Nice memories of sitting in their terrace enjoying a lovely lunch before this sad lockdown! Food was tasty and well priced. Helps that this is a charity project too, well deserved!

I was here with a friend and I am proud of these people. The service was great, the food was very delicious. The place may be a little out of the way but for those who have time I highly recommend you to come eat some delicious home cooked meal while supporting a very much needed cause. I applaud the people who are participating in this.
