The spirit

In a former trimmings workshop founded by my grandmother a few decades ago, I invite you to our El Htouba château. An exceptional place where finesse is present in every nook and cranny. Both a workshop and a guest house, the El Htouba estate is part of a vision of sustainable tourism. It’s a warm and friendly place to perpetuate the know-how of passementerie, as well as organic and local cuisine and culture. I invite you to experience unique moments as members of the family.

The El Htouba estate also stands out for its special climate, its strategic location, its exceptional landscape (near the Korba lagoon separated from the sea by a sandy barrier), its history, its heritage, its agricultural offer and its calm, relaxing atmosphere. The project is positioned within this alternative tourism framework (organic products, rural environment and visits to neighboring craft workshops).

We’ve got you covered…

Arrival at El Htouba estate. Welcome and explanations of how the experiment works.

After a brief explanation of the history of the El Htouba estate, we set off to explore its various sections: premises and trimmings workshop. We continue with the vegetable garden, to discover our lines of organic vegetables.

We continue on to the kitchens after picking up what we need to make one of our local dishes. Our chef will show you the ingredients before you start preparing. Depending on the season, we’ll be making Korba specialties, using chili to prepare dishes such as Achtar bil Kamoun or chakchouka korbia, among others, tomatoes to make Ojja Korbia with farm eggs, Tabouna bread and strawberries to make a beautiful and delicious cake.

Comfortably seated, it’s time to savor these culinary wonders and appreciate the natural, organic products.
