Tania and her family are some of the warmest and friendliest people I have ever met. Her mom is a magician in the kitchen. My husband and I had a delightful time with them. It was like visiting family friends. They went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and welcome in their home. I felt like I was with my own family and siblings. Both Tania and her mom gave us some valuable cooking tips, and they laid out a spread like no other! A special mention to Tania's brothers - they were so funny and lovely. We will always cherish the time we spent with this wonderful family.I highly recommend this delightful culinary experience.

This experience is a must for any traveler who loves to get to know a country and it’s people from a view the typical tourist doesn’t. Tania was awesome and made this dinner not only educating but also very fun and enjoyable. She exceeded my expectations by far and gave me so much additional information on what to do and see in Lebanon. The food was very very delicious, I will definitely book this again the next time I come to Lebanon. Hands down probably the best experience on my trip!I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Tania, as well as her friend and family. Good conversation with genuinely nice people.

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Tania, as well as her friend and family. Good conversation with genuinely nice people. The copious amount of food was beautifully prepared and well presented. I especially enjoyed an eggplant salad, and I appreciated Tania' s respect for my aversion to tomatoes, The homemade Arak was another very nice touch.
