Beit Sitti

Beit Sitti

Taking one of the celebrated cooking classes at Beit Sitti, which means “Grandmother’s House” in Arabic, is to be truly welcomed into a family home. Three chef-sisters run the business, with classes taking place on their sunny, flower-filled terrace or, in cooler weather, in their grandma’s kitchen itself. 

Jordanian cuisine is a mix of influences, and the dishes you learn to cook at Beit Sitti reflect that tradition, incorporating Palestinian, Syrian, and even Iraqi flavors. Classes cover breakfast, lunch, or dinner, but always end with a group meal around the large dining table. Students also leave with recipe sheets to encourage their cooking journey in their own kitchens.
