The Gaziantep municipality runs its own culinary centre, cooking a weekly changing regional menu in its dining room and teaching in its training kitchens.
TipWorkshop dates go out through the centre's own channels, so ring ahead rather than turning up.
Musem Akademi teaches a dedicated regional Gaziantep cuisine programme from its Karagöz kitchens, the most serious local course open to people from outside the trade.
TipThis is a full programme rather than a one-morning class, so it suits longer stays.
The pastry foundation course at Musem Akademi in Gaziantep covers dough, laminating and syrup work, which is the technical base under katmer and baklava.
TipThe academy lists 19 active workshops alongside its main programmes, so ask what is running.
