Petra Kitchen — Restaurant in Maan

The restaurant appears as Petra Kitchen on Google review but the menu mentions Petra Sky. For the avoidance of doubt the restaurant is located on the 5th floor of Petra Boutique Hotel. Best place to eat around Petra visitors centre (area we chose to stay in based on the proximity to Petra).

My favourite was probably the baba ganouj and fatteh. If you’re in Petra do this one...

Very average cooking class experience. We were asked to only chop a couple of vegetables each. We were never told what we were making or any of its relevance to Jordanian cuisine. Once the food was cooked (which we played no part in), it was hastily placed in front of us with no explanation of what it was, and then dishes were constantly being taken away from us despite not being finished eating. We didn't learn anything from this class.

A good class for kids to keep them involved by chopping some vegetables, and the food on offer was tasty enough. But a poor learning experience and a poor...
