Our group was a little bigger than what Orly usually takes, but she happily allowed our group of 8 to join her in her cooking class. We were four adults, two tweens and two teens, and the class was an absolute highlight of our time in Israel. We met in the Carmel Market, where we both shopped for food and tasted different foods. From learning (and tasting) the different local breads to the coffee to the most delicious hummus (still dreaming about that hummus!), we worked our way through the market. We also learned about different chick peas, fava beans, and spices. From there we traveled to Orly's house where the cooking began in earnest. Everyone took part. We all made tahnini cookies, shaped pita bread, and worked on salads. My daughter loved making homemade cous cous (I had no idea that one *could* make homemade cous cous) while my son enjoyed frying up falafel balls. At the end, we all sat down to a delicious meal together. The best thing about Orly's class is that she communicates with you ahead of time to find out what you want to make, what you like and don't like. She was able to accommodate all of us. Orly's class is truly fantastic and I would not only recommend it, I'd take it again to learn how to make new Israeli treats!

What a treat! Aliya first brought us on a tour through the shuk, where we tried various regional delicacies and shopped for fresh ingredients that we would use to make our lunch later. This was a really unique experience because not only did it show us how Israelis shop for their groceries, but it also gave us a comprehensive understanding of modern Isaraeli culture and politics, specifically how historical trends have manifested themselves in something as (seemingly) simple as a market. After the tour, Aliya brought us to her beautiful home to have our cooking lesson. Aliya was very patient with us and took our requests in stride to cater the whole experience to our desires. All throughout, we had great conversation that made time truly fly. By the end of the afternoon together, we left with full bellies (we especially loved the falafel and pita) and newfound confidence in our Israeli cooking skills. Don’t miss out on this incredible experience, she is without a doubt the best food tour there is in Tel Aviv. 11/10 recommend!!
