Overview

Some of the best memories from a trip are made in a kitchen. At La Maison Arabe — one of Marrakech's most prestigious culinary addresses — you'll step into the heart of Moroccan gastronomy and learn its secrets from a dada, a traditional Moroccan cook whose expertise has been passed down through generations. In a beautifully restored space just steps from the hotel, you'll discover the art of Moroccan spices, master the techniques behind a tajine or couscous, and bake your own Berber flatbread. Three hours later, you sit down to enjoy everything you've made. A truly unforgettable taste of Morocco.
