Your Cooking Class in Ville Nouvelle, Fes - Book on Varoom

Summary: This was an AMAZING experience! We were picked up at our riad and walked through the market to select our meat and vegetables. Then we were taken to the kitchen to taught how to cook tajine and other local dishes. Everyone was so friendly and spoke excellent English. The whole experience was relaxing and delicious!

Summary: A porter came to our hotel and brought us to the market to meet up with Badr. Badr was very informative concerning the ingredients we needed to buy for the cooking class. Fatima was a fantastic chef and Badr translated and also showed us how to prep the food. We made Tekktouka (roasted peppers), Zaalouk (roasted eggplant with cilantro), carrots with mashed garlic, and Keftka (meatballs in a tomato sauce). The food was delicious, and we learned so much about Moroccan cuisine. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Great experience, super friendly people and amazing food! First visit the market for fresh veggies & chicken with Badr. Then cook together with Fatiha a delicious tajine, babaganoush & much more. Highly recommended.

Summary: It was so convenient to be picked up and dropped off at our hotel (Riad). We loved our guide Badr had fun picking out food in the local market while he explained things about the area. Cooking was great, he showed us some of his favorite songs and we showed him ours. Delicious meal, great company, felt very safe and taken care of!

Summary: This was a wonderful experience from driver picking up, to Badr showing us around the market, and the chef herself. The experience does take about 3.5hrs from pickup to shop, cook and eating. Both the guide and chef were patient and open to anything we wanted to try to eat and however much we did or did not want to do. Felt like we were in their home being taught how to cook by family.

Summary: Had a really lovely time! Fatima and Chef explained it really well throughout the process and we really enjoyed eating what we cooked afterwards. We cooked a tagine, zalout, shakshouka and a carrot salad. On top of it Fatima answered many questions we had about Fez and Morroco.

Summary: Had a really lovely time cooking and finally eating what we cooked. Guide Fatima and chef was exceptional, explained well through out the time, and even many other questions we had about Fez and Morroco!

Summary: We had a great time! Badr, our guide, was extremely kind and friendly. He gave us a tour of the market in the Medina and the beautiful Riad Taha where we had delicious Maroccan tea. Fatiha and Badr showed us how to prepare tajine, shakshuka and baba ganoush which was delicious! Badr told us about life in Marocco and we were able to ask many questions. Thank you so much for your time, expertise and company, Badr and Fatiha!

Summary: It was easy and enjoyable from begin to end. It was very helpful to be picked up at our Riad for this experience. We arrived and went straight to the Medina to shop. It was informative and fun to shop in the Medina for our cooking needs with Badr. When we got to the Riad, we had tea and then we were shown what to do and got to work with Ms. Fatiha. We learned new ways to prepare vegetables (graded tomatoes). We made a chicken tajine and a few salads (carrot salad, Baba Ganoush, and Tchaktouka). We really enjoyed cooking with Fatiha and Badr. It was an intimate learning experience, as it was just my husband and I. The proof that she is both a good cook and teacher-the meal was fantastic! It was also straightforward enough to replicate. I’ll be making this and showing off at home! We highly recommend this experience!

Summary: Loved this experience! Badr, our most friendly and knowledgeable guide, took us through the Medina to grab ingredients, which was such a fun way to start our cooking class— a great way to experience the marketplace. Badr was also very gracious in sharing with us the rich Moroccan history and culture. Afterwards, Fatiha taught us how to make tagine and baba ganoush. What an expert! It was so much fun to see the whole process of making these amazing traditional dishes. An unforgettable experience, thank you Badr and Fatiha!!
