The Tajine we cooked was delicious, and I loved the blend of spices we used. The mint tea was a hit with our group. It was a unique experience getting to learn about Moroccan cuisine in such a hands-on way.

From the moment we arrived in the village, we felt like part of the family. Cooking the Tajine was a fun and interactive experience, and the mint tea pouring was a highlight. The meal we enjoyed at the end was absolutely delicious.
