Meet us at Palais Bab Sahra Fez restaurant for our exciting and fun-filled Moroccan culinary adventure!
For our recipe, we'll need fresh produce, for which we'll head to a local souk, right in the heart of Fez's medina. At the food stall, we'll pick out the freshest ingredients, from meats and veggies to fruits
With our groceries in hand, it's back to the restaurant for some serious cooking. Aprons on, folks! During the class, we'll learn how to prepare different variations of the classic tajin dish, a staple of Moroccan cuisine. From chicken and olives to meat and plums, even to using a different kind of couscous! And, of course, we'll wash it all down with a freshly brewed cup of Moroccan tea – which, by the way, we'll master the art of making, too!Once everything has been prepared, we'll sit down for a well-deserved meal! Alongside a fresh salad and seasonal fruit, count on one of the best meals you'll have while in Morocco—the one you cooked yourself!

This was our favorite cooking lesson ever! We had a private lesson for my husband and myself. Chef Eles was so patient with us! Chef Eles has cooked in 11 different countries and is going to be featured on a French cooking show in July. This is a “Must Do” in Fes! We had an amazing experience, thank you Chef Eles!

Had an incredible cooking experience with Chef Fatima and her son at Palais Bab Sahra. They let us choose our dishes from their menu, then guided us through the local markets to select fresh ingredients. We made tajine and couscous under their expert guidance – both turned out delicious! What sets this class apart is the warm, family atmosphere. Chef Fatima and her son treated us like relatives, sharing cooking secrets and stories while ensuring we mastered each technique. They served additional Moroccan appetizers that complemented our meal perfectly. More than just a cooking class, this was a genuine cultural exchange. From market navigation to final plating, every moment felt personal and special. The knowledge we gained will let us recreate these authentic Moroccan dishes at home. If you're in Fez, don't miss this opportunity to cook with this talented family. It's an experience that will enhance your appreciation of Moroccan cuisine and culture. -Eric & Elise

The highlights: The beautiful kitchen to cook located inside a beautifully designed Palais with market to table ingredients! The experience to cook authentic Moroccan flavors in their traditional tagine cookware. Gracious hosts!

We met at the restaurant where we were given a basket and then we headed into the market to pick up fresh ingredients for our meal. We then came back to the kitchen where we learned how to make mint tea. We enjoyed the mint tea and some cookies. Then we learned how to make a Moroccan salad and tajine with our choice of meat. The tajine takes an hour to cook, so we were taken to the rooftop overlooking the city to enjoy some appetizers while we waited. All of the food was the best flavors we tasted in all of Morocco. We highly enjoyed the pumpkin dip, artichoke dip, and chili dip. The tajine also was packed with flavor and spices. Our only complaint is that we got too full and couldn't eat any more. Highly recommend this cooking class!

The experience was really fun and the tagine we made was some of the best food we ate in Morocco but the experience takes about 5 to 6 hours from arrival to departure. Mohammed helped us with everything and was really great. I highly recommend him.
