Our pioneering spirit at La Maison Arabe led us to open the first cooking school in the Kingdom of Morocco in 2001. Food lovers staying in Marrakech can discover some secrets of Moroccan traditional cuisine. The workshops are conducted by a dada (traditional Moroccan cook), algonside a translator ( Arabic/English/French) and are held by the cooking school near the Riad-Hotel La Maison Arabe or by the secret gardens away from the hustle and bustle of the medina. The Moroccan cooking workshops at La Maison Arabe allow one to learn the ins and outs of preparing a Moroccan dish in a beautiful new workshop with state-of-the-art equipment. The workstations are individual and only fresh local ingredients of the highest quality are used. Cooking workshops at La Maison Arabe offers 2 options : * 1 Hour express Moroccan cooking workshops: 2 sessions per day : 1:30pm (lunch) & 6:30 pm (dinner). * 3 Hours Moroccan cooking workshop: 2 sessions per day at 10am (lunch) and 3pm (dinner).

This is a true hands-on cooking class in a purpose built cooking school. Every detail has been thought about. Fawa (guide) and Habiba (dada/chef) were excellent! Really welcoming and helpful. Best tajin I had while in Morocco.
This cookery class was so enjoyable! The hosts are so friendly and fun, the environment is modern and so well equipped we learnt to cook beautiful food and just enjoyed the whole experience very much. Highly recommend to anyone for a really unique experience in Marrakech. Worth every penny.
I absolutely loved this cooking class. The workshop is beautiful and each cooking station is set up nicely. Wafa was very sweet and gave great instructions. The chicken tagine was so good that I may even try to make it at home.
My family and I enjoyed that this was a very fast moving cooking class. We learned quite a lot and also enjoyed eating our own Tagine.
Thoroughly enjoyable experience. We wish we had booked the 3 hour experience. Dont eat beforehand as you get to eat your delicious tagine afterwards.
Good location. Great kitchen! Friendly staff! Very lovely chef! Dinner area was nice. 4/5 due to value for cost but otherwise lovely!
It was a great time to spend a rainy morning, the food was delicious and the teachers super nice and professional
One of our trip highlights. Everyone was enthusiastic, high energy, and really cared. The dish was great too - they even gave everyone a certificate and tajine pot in the end as a gift. Lovely experience!
Amazing experience. My only regret was not doing the 3 hour cooking class. I also booked thr hammam before the cooking workshop at the same hotel that the class is in and had drinks at the rooftop. Great value for what I paid.
This was a great experience in a beautiful setting. The staff and chef were super nice and entertaining. We learned about spices and then they took us to the cooking room. Everyone had their own stove-top set-up, with a TV giving you a close-up view of the chef’s direction. There were adults and kids present and each of us made our own dishes (3). After we were done they took us to a dinning room where they served us the food we made, along with bread and a dessert. Do not eat before going to this class! I highly recommend the experience.
