Culinary Classes & Vineyard Visit
After a traditional Arbi breakfast, which translates to “rustic” in Arabic, you'll learn to prepare Mlawi, a flaky, pan-cooked flatbread. Often enjoyed in the morning, it is a staple of Tunisian street food, perfect for making portable wraps that are easy to eat on the go. Later, visit a nearby vineyard where you'll take a cellar tour, taste a variety of wines, and enjoy a barbecue lunch (méchoui) among the towering aging tanks. The vineyard gives a glimpse into Tunisia’s Roman and colonial past, offering insights into how grape cultivation continues to shape the country's culture today. In the afternoon, return to Lamia’s farm for a hands-on workshop where you will learn to make Malsouka. This delicate, thin pastry, similar to filo dough, is used in a variety of dishes, both sweet and savory. One of the most popular is the triangular brik, a pastry filled with potatoes, egg, and tuna, often enjoyed during Ramadan. The workshop will give you the chance to create your own Malsouka, and you’ll savor the results at a dinner made with the dishes you’ve prepared together.
