Cooking class that is fun
Always surprising is the Petra Kitchen, besides offering traditional Bedouin food, it gives you the chance to you to work out your own dishes. With fresh produce from the zone, Bedouin dishes are prepared daily with the help of the diner. An experience that lasts about 2 hours. It is fun, if you have time before or after the visit to Petra, it is another way to get to know Jordanian food and culture. You get an apron and you have the staff and they put you directly in the kitchen. The chef and his assistants will explain the dishes to make, they put a knife in your hand and you begin chopping veggies ...
Step by step they show you the way, all the time making you part of the process. It's so fun. The menu is made up of soup, some starters, a main dish, a Jordanian dish and a dessert. Depending on the culinary prowess of each person, it will take more or less time to sit at the table. It is usually cooked in groups, so you meet people from many countries. Once the dishes are made the chef lets you eat. They even have a Bedouin cooking course that is five days. You can spend a few hours in fun company, with the preparation of the dishes, lunch and drinks included, which adds up to about 40dj. It is not cheap, but the laughter and fun is definitely priceless. It is very close to the entrance of Petra, close to Petra Palace Hotel.
