Reviews
Hospitable and kind host family. Delicious food with lots of variety. Fun experience cooking and interesting to learn about Egypt's history.
This was a great experience. I felt like I was with family during the experience. I learned a lot about how to make Egyptian dishes while enjoying the company of the family. A very genuine experience. Highly recommend.
I had such a great time with Ahmed, his wife and his 2 lovely daughters! They make you feel at home as soon as you step inside their flat. The food we had/made was amazing, special mention to the baba ganoush! I am a vegan and Ahmed arranged everything according to my regime. I strongly recommend to try this experience to enjoy Cairo, its inhabitants and life there in a genuine and very agreeable way :)
This wasn't just a cooking class; it was an invitation into the heart of an Egyptian home. Spending the afternoon with a local family provided a window into the local culture that you simply cannot get from a museum or a tour bus. The conversations were just as nourishing as the food—we discussed everything from daily life in Cairo to long-standing traditions, making the experience feel like catching up with old friends. As someone exploring the vegetarian side of Egyptian cuisine, I was incredibly impressed by the variety and depth of flavor. We prepared and tasted several traditional dishes,
Ich hatte einen großartigen Abend mit einer tollen Familie! Alles war super organisiert und ich konnte einen guten Einblick in die ägyptische Küche gewinnen ! Die Familie war sehr gastfreundlich und ich habe mich sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt! Vielen dank dafür!
We had a wonderful time cooking and eating with Ahmed and his family. The food was delicious, especially the Falafel and the Hawawshi. We also cooked something I had never heard of, like Molokhaya soup. The evening was filled with interesting conversation. Thank you for welcoming us into your home!
