Safta Maha, from the beautiful Druze village of Hurfeish, is known for her amazing cooking skills. Several years ago, she decided to combine her two loves - cooking and hosting, and since then, Maha and her husband Amir, a tour guide by training, have hosted many groups from Israel and abroad in their home located on the edge of the village. Guests are treated to a royal (kosher) meal on a terrace facing a breathtaking panoramic view of the Galilee, and get a taste of her incredible life story.

You can invite Safta Maha for a rich Druze meal or an experiential cooking workshop and meal. Maha’s signature dishes: shulbato, beef or chicken mansaf, stuffed grape leaves, stuffed cabbage, maqluba, mughribi (a stew of chickpeas with meat, pumpkin and bulgur).
