Fes on Al Jazeera

Recently on Al Jazeera was a BBC TV show on the street food of Fes, that featured Lahcen Beqqi with whom I did a cooking class in Fes a year or so ago. Here it is:

An Australian in Fez

Thanks to The View from Fez, I have found out that an Australian women owns and runs a riad in Fez, Dar El Hana. This riad has 3 rooms and can sleep up to 8 and from the website appears to be tastefully decorated with a Moroccan theme but not over-powering as some riads are. Josephine also offers to organise massages and cooking classes. The thought of learning how to make tagines, harira and pastilla, the traditional Moroccan way sounds good. So now both a stay at Dar El Hana and a 1 day cooking class are on my agenda for a weekend later this year as I was already planning to go back to Fez since I haven't been since 2000. I don't think I have any hope of recognising the place, well maybe the medina.
