Amal Gueliz Center - Restaurant

"Empowering Women through Cooking Morocco is full of worthy projects to support, particularly when it comes to vocational training and education, but not all are created equal. Amal, by contrast, is a deeply practical nonprofit association that aims to empower women by teaching them culinary and hospitality skills on site, before organizing a four-month internship at a local hotel or restaurant. Sometimes the internship can lead lead to permanent work, but even if it doesn’t, the training provides these women with valuable experience that the industry is quickly starting to tap into. The mothership is a spacious center in a villa in Gueliz, where visitors can come for an exceptionally tasty, daily-changing, traditional Moroccan lunch or dinner, and participate in cooking classes ($33 per person)."

"This restaurant serves up not only a good meal, but a philanthropic mission too. The organization works to improve the lives of local women by training them in cooking and restaurant skills like hosting and food safety, in addition to providing advice on interviewing and lessons in French and English. The menu changes daily, and dishes disappear throughout the day as they are sold out. The restaurant is only open for lunch; reservations are suggested, especially on Fridays, when the traditional couscous never fails to draw a crowd. [$]" - Amanda Ponzio-Mouttaki
