Learn to cook at Maison Arabe

Maison Arabe is the best place to visit in Marrakech if you really want to find out the secrets of Moroccan cuisine. The riad is located in the heart of the medina and has for decades served up some of the best cuisines in the city. Your experience starts with a visit to a community bakery around the corner before you experience a traditional Moroccan tea ceremony. Next, your chef will talk through the various ingredients used in Moroccan cookery. It’s then over to you, trying out a few techniques in the state-of-the-art kitchen. It’s great for both experienced cooks and those who just want a first taste of how to produce a delicious tagine or North African salad.
