    Luma e Sameh, they we're simply amazing. They are good owners and good cooking teachers but first of all they are very kind, funny and generous... we felt like if we were at home. I can say only 'thanks' and if you can, go to their lesson. The place is not properly in the center but with a cheap uber you can reach them easily.

    I highly recommend spending an afternoon in the non-touristy area of El Maadi with Roza&Moha: you'll have the funniest and most authentic experience in Cairo of all! First shopping for food at the local open-air market by tuk-tuk and then cooking it (and of course tasting it!) in their cozy home while chatting about recipes, traditions, and cultural differences. It was so interesting and eye-opening I would do it again and again. Thank you so much guys!!!

    I've travelled in Egypt from north to south and south to north. I saw many places and did many things but cooking and learning to cook with Sameh and Nagwa was, perhaps, one of the best experience ever. You go to the local market to pick up the products you'll use to cook, you have an immerse experience where local people goes. Then go to your hosts house where you'll feel that you are visiting family. The most lovely people I met in my entire trip. At the end you leave the house feeling that you learn to cook, you had a good dinner and you made amazing friends. If you are looking for an unique, amazing and unforgettable experience this is the activity. You'll be more than happy of your decision.

    The most authentic experience i did in Cairo. I got to experience something unique, and i loved it. Going to the market to pick the vegetables, seeing everything being immersed in Egyptian life was one of the highlights. The entire family are so welcoming. The food was really good and they made sure i felt comfortable. I would absolutely recommend this experience.”

    We did the cooking class during our week in Egypt and it became one of the highlights of our trip! The experience began with an exciting tuk-tuk ride and a visit to a bustling local market to buy fresh ingredients. Afterwards, we were warmly welcomed into the family’s home, where we learned to prepare traditional Egyptian dishes like Tameeya, Mahshi, Molokhia, Mousaka and Chicken. The best part was the family’s incredible hospitality - they were so friendly and full of joy! We laughed together, cooked to the rhythm of Egyptian music (ohhh satalana!), and felt like part of the family. It was such a unique and heartwarming experience that we’ll treasure forever. Thank you for sharing your culture with us!
