Renowned for its delicious and various dishes, Morocco in 2017 was classified second in a ranking of the best gourmet global destinations; the country offers an exceptional culinary experience. Because food is the central element of discovery on any voyage into a different culture, we have put for you many ways to explore the food scene Morocco is famous for. Marrakech, Fes, Rabat, Essaouira are among tempting culinary destinations; so, after taking a tour, you will be thrilled to try special food you will not see anywhere else in the world, and just particular to Morocco from Moroccan restaurants or street food.
Getting to the core of Morocco’s incredible and diverse food scene starts with sampling Moroccan street food. It is time to venture into the old medinas in Morocco to find out what Moroccan street food is. Marrakech and Fes are among cities that offer this experience; after strolling around and starting feeling hangry, you would love to taste what locals eat and how they eat it. You will be enjoying food in open-air restaurants like those found in Jemaa el Fena Square if you are visiting Marrakech, or in the honey souk in Fez. A great atmosphere and local delicacies are guaranteed in Morocco.
While you are visiting a different culture, the last thing you will think about is learning how to prepare its local food; hence we organize exciting different activities. One of them is cookery classes that come in different shapes and sizes in Morocco. You will be cooking, dining, and exploring the culture of Moroccan cuisine with locals in two places we particularly like; in the most historic establishments in Marrakech, fes and Essaouira Classic Workshop, and in an excellent organic cookery class in the Amizmiz. At the end of this new experience, you will be using your personal skills to prepare a Moroccan meal using fresh local ingredients.
Sometimes it is the simple encounters along the way that provide one with unforgettable memories that stay along after returning home. After exploring the beautiful mountain range Morocco offers, you must feel exhausted; therefore, we suggest incorporating a meal or a tea with a local family to taste home-cooked Moroccan food which can be a way to see the inside of the typical house and more importantly to be close up to the famed hospitality of the locals, which is often quite humbling.
