Chef Fatima's Traditional House in the Old Medina

Two people, both named, which is the sign of a class run by the people who run it rather than by a company. Fatima is the chef; Yassir is the guide, and he is yours rather than shared.

The setting is a traditional house in the centre of the old Medina, and it is a home rather than a riad fitted out for guests. The hospitality is the family's own.

Three and a half hours, cooking with Fatima, with time spent on the local spices and what they are for.

Ten people at most, in English, French or Arabic. Three courses, which you cook and then eat, with tea or coffee and bottled water.

The meeting point is in front of Restaurant Andalusia, which in the Medina matters more than it would anywhere else: those streets are not navigable by map.

Wheelchair accessible throughout. Private transport is not included.
