About the Cooking Class
Step into Simo’s kitchen for an evening of cooking, feasting, and authentic Moroccan hospitality. This is more than a class—it’s a joyful gathering, a celebration of flavors, and a chance to feel like part of the family. Guests are welcomed with irresistible appetizers such as smoky eggplant with feta, fire-grilled paprika with mint, and sautéed potatoes with preserved lemons. From there, the group dives into the heart of Moroccan cuisine, preparing a saffron chicken tagine with olives and fries, or juicy beef meatballs simmered in a rich spiced tomato sauce. The experience concludes with fragrant mint tea and delicate almond marzipan triangles—no Moroccan feast is complete without a sweet ending. Warm bread and harissa are served throughout to round out the experience. Expect laughter, connection, and flavors that transport you straight to Morocco.
