Cooking Class - Moroccan Chicken Tagine and More! - Los Angeles

Gaili S. 01/04/2026

Our Moroccan cooking class with Chef Yasmina far exceeded our expectations. Yasmina is a great teacher, making sure everyone gets their needs and questions answered, and the food was truly amazing. Yasmina is an inspiring chef with a generous spirit - nothing was rushed and she even made an extra sauce just because we were interested. We left the class feeling confident that we could try these dishes at home, and that we also had learned much about cooking in general. We would highly recommend this class or anything that Chef Yasmina teaches.

The evening with Chef Yasmina was more than just cooking and eating delicious food. Our time with Chef was an experience to last a lifetime, for real. Chef Yasmina was friendly and welcoming from start to finish. We experienced traditional Moroccan food, and Chef Yasmina shared history and stories along with everything she prepared (and taught us how to make) that made the evening a pure delight. We had chicken tagine and learned that one does not need to add liquids for the preparation, as the food, when cooked and prepared properly, creates its own flavorful broth that is beyond words. The eggplant caviar was softer than a cloud, and was seasoned in a way that was different from the chicken, yet the flavors provided the perfect compliment to the meal. And for dessert, we were treated to marzipan and fresh orange slices from her personal garden that were seasoned with a citrus liquid, cinnamon, and sesame seeds. Oh, let me not forget that we were greeted with farmer's cheese, olives, and toasts, along with a traditional green tea ceremony made with fresh mint and a wonderful story about the teapot and the centuries-old traditions surrounding the making and preparation of the tea. We cannot write enough superlatives about the evening and overall experience; we can only say that we hope everyone leaves with the same feelings we did.

Yasminaâ€™s cooking class was the PERFECT way to connect and have a joy-filled, yummy new year's eve. The vibe was welcoming and friendly the moment we stepped in the door. We had some snacks of delicious farmers cheese spread on toasts with smokey harissa and olives â€” while she told us the stories and culture of each of these ingredients, the cooking tools and processes, and even the morrocan mint tea we sipped. The conversation flowed as we learned about her experiences in Morocco and elsewhere in the world, as well as sharing some of our own stories and experiences with her. The food was delicious (Chicken Tagine and cooked Eggplant Salad) and the ambiance was on point. 10/10 would recommend â€” I hope to return for another meal some day, and I look forward to getting her cookbook when it is published. Cheers! Thanks, Yasmina!

WOW! I was incredibly lucky to have the honor to learn a remarkably delicious dish from a chef like Chef Yasmina! What an authentic culinary experience. It felt otherworldly. The other 2 guests were simply great people. I look forward to making this traditional moroccan dish, but this experience was priceless!! Oops, I forgot to say that the food was easily on a Michelin level. Try and book Chef Yasmin before you only see her on her own shows. I am really not embellishing todayâ€™s experience. Fantastic!

Bring some fun beverages and an open mind and prepare for a lovely evening with Chef Yasmina. She's a very special person and very warm and inviting and has such a passion for her craft, for food, culture, and life. You get what you put in as all the ingredients are there to have a wonderful time. Chef Yasmina is inspiring and talented and a force and I recommend treating yourself to share a slice of her delicious life.

We absolutely loved our meal with Chef Yasmina! She was so welcoming and made us immediately feel at home. Between the great conversation, quality food, and tips and tricks she taught us along the way, we had a terrific experience. We would definitely recommend her cooking class to anyone.

This was an amazing experience. My girlfriend treated me to a date night and thought it would be a fun thing to do. Iâ€™m usually not a â€œcooker.â€ She tends to cook mor than me. However Chef Yasmina completely changed my perspective on food. She was very passionate and it certainly rubbed off on me. I enjoyed the interactive parts where I was able to contribute and see the dish coming together. Yasmina explained everything very well. She emphasized feeling the food, smelling the food, listening to the sounds. This truly made the experience more immersive. ..... and I havenâ€™t even gotten to Chef Yasmina herself. Sheâ€™s a wonderful person with a contagious personality. Very personable and the atmosphere was incredible. Yasmina, my girlfriend and I bonded over great conversations throughout the experience. She has an interesting story. We left sad we had to leave. We canâ€™t wait to see her again.

Wow! Chef Yasmina supplied one of the best dates of all time. She is absolutely incredible and so fun to connect with. Her love for people and food is contagious and made us feel comfortable very fast, and we were able to foster deep bonds and learn so much about each other over the table. Sheâ€™s awesome and I def canâ€™t wait to do this again and tell others ? - Toby

Truly an extraordinary experience, an absolute delight. Chef Yasmina is an artist who brings joy with her food and and luxuriates in the cooking process. The tastes and sights and smells are powerful and deliciousâ€”they seem to transport you to Morocco! We all so thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our class and dinner.

Chef Yasmina...Thank you so much. You are an amazing person and a great chef. She invited us into her warm home with such an amazing interior and crazy back yard. The food was so good and she made it so much fun to cook and to sit and talk to her about how she came into becoming a chef. I will find my way back to a class or event any day of the week if Chef Yasmina will be there no questions asked. If you want to have fun, enjoy amazing food, talk/chat/etc, laugh you will take a course with Chef Yasmina. We did the menu that was shown but also she started whipping up some wild creations on top of the ones offered. I don't even know how long we stayed but I can say we would of been down to stay a few more hours haha.

A fantastic experience with Yasmina. She was incredibly warm, inviting, and open from the moment we stepped into her home. Will be booking again with her

Yasminaâ€˜s warmth and care made us all feel right at home. The hours flew by and the food was absolutely stunning. We couldnâ€™t have asked for a better experience cooking lamb and chicken Tagines together, eating outside in the orange blossom-scented breeze, and breaking handmade bread with new people!

Christiana 01/12/2020

This was such an amazing experience! I do not enjoy cooking at all....but chef Yasmina definitely brought the cook out in me yesterday! She is very knowledgeable and super talented. I loved learning about Moroccan culture and being able to break bread literally and figuratively with some amazing human beings.
