Very nice experience - The cooks are very friendly, The setting is beautiful, functional and very clean. Very nice dining experience. Pleasant atmosphere, Everything is well organized and anticipated. We tasted our achievements: -chickpea soup: harira -Saouri sardine tagine It was excellent, The only regret was that we did not have any wine to accompany the meal because the workshop does not have a license for alcoholic beverages.

Lovely insights into Moroccan cooking - This L'Atelier class was a great insight into Moroccan cooking. The pace of the class was pretty relaxed and included a walk to the spice market and some quality time with one of the spice merchants where I didn't feel pressured to buy anything. The meal we cooked was delicious.
