Culinary Thursdays: Raehan—A Journey Through the Senses

About the event

This workshop explores the deep connection between memory, flavor, and place. Chef Marya guides participants through a multisensory cooking and tasting journey, inspired by Fatima Abdulhadi’s artwork in AlMidhallah and her own recollections of Raehan (basil) as a childhood memory—an experience later echoed in AlUla. Marya will bring this connection to life through a unique multi sensory culinary experience, with a Haissa making and tasting journey. 

What will you learn?
Participants will be involved in a unique multisensory experience along side creating a dessert Haissa, a traditional date dish, incorporating different ingredients such as basil.

Who is it for?
This workshop is for participants who love to experience food in a wholesome and innovative way, engaging all the senses.
