‘Cooking with Chef Laila was the best part of the trip’ : comment from my 16th year old. - My daughter loved the experience. It was engaging and fun class. On Fridays there is no market, so missed that part. But chef laila and her daughter were amazing hosts. So we did not mind it.

Best fun cooking class - We were with a group of 10 women and had the most fun cooking class with mama Laila & daughter. The dishes were a delight, with rich exotic flavours and colours. Highly recommended for groups looking for autentic cooking class. Thanks mama Laila & daughter

Memorable experience - Cooking course that was recommended to us.
Chef Laila, her daughter and her whole team introduced us to traditional Moroccan recipes (2 savory and sweet tagines, several cooked and raw salads and a dessert).
Group of about 20 people. Translation into English and French for participants.
Very good experience, the team is adorable, gives all the tips to succeed these recipes. Chef Laila pampers us like her own children.
We recommend ++++++++

Moroccan cuisine - Good time sharing and conviviality of 4 hours. Leila details and explains very well. We were able to taste the dishes we prepared with the help of leila (Moroccan salads, sweet and savoury tagines, and fruit salad) around the meal which was delicious.

Ok - The food was tasty and the mother and daughter team kept us entertained and involved everyone in the experience, especially the children of families. No mean feat for a group of 14. However we didn’t visit the market as described in the itinerary and a lot of time was spent sharing stories with fellow travellers whilst we waited for the food to cook. A query about the meeting point beforehand never received a response and the promise of recipes via WhatsApp after the lesson never materialised.
