Highlights

Enjoy an authentic Middle-eastern meal in a Canoga Park home with Jacqueline, an incredibly warm host and passionate cook. This is a perfect experience for anyone looking to connect with local culture over food. Your dining experience will take place her home where Jacqueline goes out of her way to make you feel like family. Jacqueline grew up in the Middle-east where food has important cultural and symbolic meanings that go beyond what's on the plate. She moved to America with her family where she enjoys hosting Middle-eastern themed dinners. Jacqueline welcomes you with “ahlan wa sahlan” which means welcome. Enjoy Jacqueline's beautiful garden, taste the fruits and vegetables that she grows, and listen to the sounds of the birds as you dine on an exquisite Middle-eastern meal. Jacqueline has been cooking for over 35 years and still loves to see how her food brings joy to people’s faces. Experience the warmth, hospitality and generosity of the Jordanian culture without leaving LA.

Itinerary

  • Canoga Park

    This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Meet your host Jacqueline at her California ranch-style house in the Canoga Park neighborhood of the San Fernando Valley in the greater Los Angeles metro area. Her home has a garden with colorful flowers, citrus trees and a hammock. Sip on a welcome drink of traditional Arabic arak or a non-alcoholic refreshing beverage as Jacqueline shares stories about her life in Southern California. Then, join your host and her family (when they are in town) at the dining table to enjoy an authentic four-course Middle-eastern meal. Your meal is made from family recipes that have been passed down through generations and with spices that Jacqueline brings back from her travels. Enjoy appetizers such as hummus, foul and baba ghannouj with warm bread followed by a main of shawarma or succulent kababs. For dessert, dive into a decadent baklava or hareesah. Enjoy your meal over wine, arak and coffee. Most importantly, get a taste of the Middle-east in LA with hospitable hosts - you will laugh, learn and even belly dance during this unique, cultural and culinary experience.
