10 Food & Drink in Marrakech That You Shouldn't Miss

May 16, 2022 Misti Hsu

The “Red City” of Marrakesh is a magical place, brimming with markets, gardens, palaces, and mosques. Exploring the intimate courtyards and snaking alleyways of the historic Medina can easily eat up a day. Find inner peace at the serene Jardin Majorelle or take in the beauty of one of the city’s historic mosques (taking note that, unless you are Muslim, you are not allowed to enter).

Cooking Workshops at La Maison Arabe

The world-renowned cooking workshops at La Maison Arabe are open to hotel guests and those staying elsewhere in Marrakech. At the half-day classes, one learns the secrets of Moroccan cuisine, considered the most refined on the African continent. The workshops are run by a dada (traditional Moroccan chef), a translator (French/English), and include a visit to a nearby spice market and communal bread oven. After the workshop, during which every participant has worked alongside the dada at his or her own workstation, one dines on the delicious meal that's been prepared. The cooking workshops at La Maison Arabe have been praised by the leading international travel and food press, including The New York Times Sunday Travel Section, Travel + Leisure, Condé Nast Traveler, Saveurs, and Virtuoso Life.

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed the 3hr morning cooking class. They began the workshop by demonstrating the making of Moroccan mint tea. Our guide was very informative of Moroccan cuisine and provided us with several tasty recipes which we got to prepare in the kitchen alongside the Dada and eat on the terrace afterwards overlooking beautiful views of the medina. The riad interior was stunning and the kitchen was fully equipped and designed beautifully for the workshop. I would really recommend this class to anyone that wants to get creative with the food and spices of Morocco. Thank you la maison arabe for making this cooking experience a memorable one!

We had a lovely time with Michel and Ilham at the cooking class, the hospitality was excellent, Michel is always making jokes and Ilham is so lovely! We made bread, salads, tagine and pancakes all were delicious! The extra touches they add really make the experience. We particularly liked the spice school. If your visiting marrakech I’d 100% recommend giving this class a go, you’ll learn to cook, eat delicious food and spend your day in great company.

We had a very interesting cooking class with the added bonus of being taught many new Arabic words. Up until that point we had eaten many tajines, now we have the ability to cook them as well! 3 hours flew by as we cooked, learnt new words and cultural experiences and then ate the results of our efforts. Many thanks ladies for such a great experience. Well worth it.

Excellent experience in the foothills of Marrakech, really enjoyed the location and tuition and then the consumption of traditional tajines, real couscous, bread and Moroccan tea. We had a short guided walk around the small village and saw the local olive press. The whole experience from collection at our hotel to the meet and greet and the friendly professional staff was superb value for money and we would definitely recommend the experience, the drive itself was interesting, do it, you know you want to ????
