Who says Moroccan food is not good?  We loved every meal we had. Not one dish was the same in every  place so I would not get tired of tagine or couscous or kefta.  We were in Morocco for 12 days and I was sad we could not have Moroccan food when we had to leave

 Inside the medina we ate in Nejjarine – again a door that led to a different world insideRestaurant Nejjarine (3) Restaurant Nejjarine (4) Restaurant Nejjarine (5) Restaurant Nejjarine (6)  Love the plates and linens 🙂Restaurant Nejjarine (7) Restaurant Nejjarine (8) Restaurant Nejjarine (9) Restaurant Nejjarine (10) Always Moroccan salad 🙂 I don’t eat all – I like the one that has eggplant 🙂 Restaurant Nejjarine (11) Restaurant Nejjarine (12)  B’astilla – YUM!Restaurant Nejjarine (13)Mechoui ( Roasted lamb) I could eat lamb everyday!

Art Naji Ceramics Fes

By | Morocco | No Comments

We visited a ceramic factory in Fes where they are handmade by workers who learned from their parents. Art Naji makes high quality ceramics and what sets them apart is how they paint their ceramics where they use natural coloring ( green from copper and red from iron) so it’s not toxic. Fes is known for Moroccan ceramics. #Fes #ceramics #ArtNaji #Morokrew
