Cooking and Marjorelle Gardens Tour

Today our hands-on cooking lesson consisted of lunch and dinner.

Lunch was:
Grilled Pepper and Tomato Salad
Dry Fava Been Soup
Artichoke Tajine
Moroccan Almond Macaroons

Dinner was:
Moroccan Soup -Harira
Steamed Eggplant in Tomato and Coriander Sauce
Chicken Tagine with Preserved Lemon
Orange and Cinnamon Salad

Once we prepared today's meals, we took an excursion to Majorelle Gardens; Marrakech's most famous garden which was purchased by Yves Saint Laurent in the 1970's.






















After dinner, we had a surprise birthday cake for Anna which was from a local french bakery called Almondine.  Apparently the best in the city of Marrakech.  The cake was delicious.
