Experience Details

Enjoy a private and authentic home-cooked meal with your host Nohad. Nohad lives in a scenic town called Monsef, which is famous for its beaches and clear, blue skies. She learned how to cook from her grandmother, and uses her secret recipes and techniques to preparing appetizing Lebanese dishes. Nohad has a very strong passion for food, she has been cooking Lebanese food for over 30 years now and wishes to continue doing this for years to come! A lot of the produce used in the meals comes from Nohad’s garden, where she grows organic vegetables. Nohad will teach you to make a salad or appetizer and a main dish in your 1 hour hands-on cooking class, before you sit down to share the meal you helped prepare.

What You’ll Experience

This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. This experience will take place in Nohad’s beautiful stone home, which is quite common to see around Lebanon. You will walk with Nohad to her home garden to collect fresh vegetables, that will be used to prepare the dishes which you will cook together, in Nohads’s bright and cozy kitchen. Also, visit her small farm where she has rabbits and chicken, before starting your cooking class. Nohad will teach you how to make a salad - either fattoush or tabbouleh, and kibbeh (ball-shaped croquettes, stuffed with minced meat, onions, pine nuts, and spices) or a roasted rabbit dish. This hands-on experience will last for about 1 hour, after which you will be share the meal that you prepared with Nohad and her family (when they are around).
