our host Yuki was nice enough, but the slow-cooked tagine felt a bit rushed honestly, and on a rainy sunday.

our host Leila really knew their stuff and a fish taco from a tiny street stall was the highlight. Used it for our summer trip so it wasnt too busy. Good as a half-day option, and rolled home properly stuffed, and fine even with my dodgy knee, and we hit 6 tastings. Would book again no question.
