A Culinary Tour of Marrakech: Spices & Tagines

Marrakech is a food lover’s paradise. The air is thick with aromas of cumin, saffron, and cinnamon. In the evening, the famous Jemaa el-Fnaa transforms into a massive open-air dining hall with hundreds of stalls. Try the ‘Tanjia Marrakchia’, a beef dish slow-cooked in a clay jug over hot ashes inside traditional public bath furnaces. Wash it down with fresh squeezed orange juice or spiced Moroccan coffee. For dessert, grab some sweet almond gazelle horns.
