For the first time, Taste of Dubai introduces a new 'Mummy and Me' cooking workshop. This workshop is held daily for three days in the Philips Cook School and is designed for mothers and their little aspiring chefs. The workshop is led by Chef Lama Jammal, a leading entrepreneur and influencer, and is hosted by Priti Malik. Attendees will get to explore the latest Philips kitchen appliances, such as air fryers and blenders. The best part is that the budding chefs can enjoy their creations and take home the recipes for future kitchen adventures. And here's a little surprise: Attendees may even walk away with more than just the recipe, but we'll keep that under wraps for now.

Friday, February 23: 5.30pm

Saturday, February 24: 2.30 pm

Sunday, February 25: 2.30 pm

Sessions are free of charge, and open for pre-registration now at https://dubai.platinumlist.net/event-tickets/91117/philips-cook-school
