It's poured from a great height to mix the flavours in the glass - managing not to splash it all over the floor can be counted as a success on your first go! - and don't be surprised to see the first glass taken back off you and poured straight back into the jug - apparently it makes it brew better.

Tagine is a kind of stew, slowly cooked over a charcoal fire and served in special conical pots. It's most commonly made with chicken and can include dried fruits but my favourites were lamb with eggs, and fish tagine. Couscous is well known outside Morocco and here is usually served with vegetables and chicken. Brochettes are skewered kebabs - again chicken is most popular but all kinds of meat are available. Moroccan vegetarians are I believe quite rare, but it's an excellent country if you are a veggie as meat-free tagines and couscous are available most places. Moroccan food generally takes a long time to prepare so at good authentic places you'll have to order several hours in advance.
In big cities and on the coast fish is commonly eaten. There are also more unusual Moroccan delicacies - snails (the French influence?) and all kinds of slimy seafood and animal parts that would usually end up in my bin rather than my stomach! For dessert, pastillas are fairly good sweet pastries.
All Moroccan meals are served with bread, the staple food. It's usually excellent quality French style or flat bread. Better restaurants often serve a free starter of sundried tomatoes, French stick and olive oil - absolutely delicious and practically a meal in itself! Leave a Comment Theme: Local

 This is it!:) by Fanija
It looks like a huge pot as i mentioned before, and in the middle of it there is meat (in our case it was chicken) and different vegetables are placed on it and all around it including wonderful potatoes, carrots, peas and olives.
You eat it with your hands (if you protest this kind of eating, please, forks and knives are served) helping yourself with pieces of bread using them in some kind like spoons.
We tried it twice and it wouldn't be me if not misunderstanding the way you should eat it!
It appeared you always start from one side of the bowl and eat until reaching the meat which is left for the end of the meal. Of course, i didn't know that and dug out the meat first:)
Maybe for you it is helpful to know it to show yourself as a non-beginner in tajine-eating! Theme: Local

 Best food by blint
I thought that maybe I could get ill if it was unhygienic, but I didn't. I took a picture of the stall so I could surprise people by telling them this was the best restaurant I've eaten in!
Another great thing is the stall next door sells glasses of freshly squeezed natural orange juice!
Sardine tajine because it's very spicy and the sauce contained other great herbs and spices that made it taste great!
It's VERY cheap too! Leave a Comment Theme: Street VendorPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveAddress: Chaun market

 Open air eating by Vintom
A good meal with soft drink and mint tea should cost no more than 25DH (£1.50/$3.00). These prices are from June 2003.
While your in the square you should also try a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice for approx 2DH. Stroll around soak up the atmosphere and sit at any of the stalls to take your fancy.
You can get a variety of dishes including lamb, chicken, beef e.t.c. fresh salads, pasta, even french fries. Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveAddress: All over the market square.

 local restaurant by sachara
being en route we stopped often at these places to have our lunch too. The food was fresh, good and cheap. And it'snice to sit in the local ambiance. Often the walls have Moroccan tiles and the interior is painted in pastel colours.

Eat in Someone's House
This restaurant is not in any tour book. It is the one you can find by making friends on your trip. You are there as a special guest soaking in the hospitality that is proverbial in Morocco. The food is almost always unique, heavenly and the company is enough to cover any possible culinary weirdness. If there's some improv music for your benefit - lagniappe, boo. If you don't want to leave things to fate: You could host the meal at your own house and even do the cooking (or hire one of the multitudes of working women to do it) - the total experience will be better than any restaurant in Fes, and certainly should be more memorable.
This is a country where the absolute best things cannot and will not be bought - and this food tip is to be taken if you want to increase your chances of really hitting one of Morocco's gastronomic as well as cultural sweet spots.
Invite yourself (or Get yourself invited) and Eat in...
It's always a surprise, but if you are lucky enough to get the roast chicken stuffed with nuts, olives and pickled lemon...you hooked up, dawg...

 have a drink by sachara
Also it's possible to have a seat and drink a glass of the sweet mint tea or to take a small snack, like we did on our way from Marrakesh to Agadir. Leave a Comment Theme: Local
