authentic cooking experience, excellent company - Incredible experience! Authentic. Our guiding chef, who's name I cannot remember but who's face and warm smile is in front of my eyes (i'm sorry for my poor memory), accepted us into her home and had everything ready and organized. The actual cooking was so much fun. We were taught step my step and created a delicious feast that we feel capable of replicating upon our return to our home country. Highly recommend this experience, it is an authentic moroccan and wholesome experience with truly good hearted people. 10/10 experience.

Incredible evening with delicious food! - This experience was collectively one of our favorite things we did on our trip. The food we made was incredible, and the host was so kind! She eve sat down with us after the meal and we shared stories and photos of our lives. We had a travel delay that day and they were so accommodating to us. We highly recommend using the option for transportation, as Fes can be a very confusing city to navigate, and the price was very reasonable. I will now always make sure to book a local cooking experience in every city based on our experience in Fes!

Great food and company - Yassine is great! The entire experience from start to finish is wonderful. You have over 12 dishes to choose from and you get to go to a local market to purchase the ingredients. This was a highlight from my trip to Fes

Great Evening! Can’t wait to cook the dishes again - We had an amazing evening! There was a great range of dishes to choose from and we got to try some extra homemade treats. Yassine was a great host, he was very fun and informative - he gave us lots of information about the local area, Moroccan culture and cuisine as well as teaching us how to cook! I would definitely recommend to any foodies visiting Fes, I can’t wait to get home and cook the dishes again for friends and family

Authentic, holistic experience with delicious food, warm hospitality & cultural insights - More than just a simple cooking class, this was an authentic, holistic experience with delicious food, warm hospitality and cultural insights. Yassine is not only a talented chef, but also a personable guide who truly cares about you. We were given an extensive menu in advance to choose 2 favorite dishes to learn to prepare. In addition to these 2 main dishes were sides, bread, and desserts prepared in advance by Yassine and his mother. My husband, 16 year old daughter and I were taught many tips and tricks for prepping the vegetables, choosing spices, and creating a visually stunning meal. We were also taught how to make traditional Moroccan mint tea. It was a wonderful evening from start to finish with lovely conversation. We were so impressed by Yassine's genuine warmth and trustworthiness that we booked a Hammam experience with him for the following evening. It was one of the highlights of our trip! Yassine's cousin, Wafae, attended my daughter and I, while he and his uncle went with my husband. This was a true local Hamman, not a glossy spa version, which is what we were looking for. It was beautiful to experience the sense of community and service that is part of this weekly cultural routine. Yassine has a small team of trusted family and friends that work together to offer so many different experiences in Fez, I encourage you to explore their offerings and don't hesitate to book any or all!

Great experience! - Yassine gave us an excellent cooking class in Fez. It started with a great tour on the local market, a place you would never come as tourist. Afterwards he learned us very precisely how to cook a chicken tagine and zalouk. Thanks again for the great day!

Experience authentic Moroccan food in a home setting - Well before our class, we were contacted by Yassine and asked to choose 2 dishes to make on the day. There was a really good selection. We opted to be picked up and dropped off at our Riad for a small extra charge. This was a sensible move as the lesson takes place in Yassine’s apartment and it would have been very difficult to find otherwise. The kitchen was spotless. All the ingredients and equipment that we needed were out ready. Yassine instructed us in the preparation and cooking of our Moroccan dishes. The final results and presentation was checked by his mum which was quite amusing! Afterwards we were rewarded with a very tasty lunch followed by orange slices with cinnamon and freshly made mint tea. Yassine sent us our recipes later by WhatsApp with very detailed instructions so that we can confidently reproduce the authentic tastes of Morocco at home. The best things about our cookery course were the excellent communication before and after, Yassine’s patient instruction and good organisation and the great tasting food that resulted.
