Morocco is a country of contrast, magic and timeless wonders. It is blessed with rich, nourishing land and mountain snows; beaches, deserts and lush oases.
Casbah's are in harmony amongst this backdrop. It is a sanctuary for Moroccans.
In this dining room you will witness authentic architecture, carvings, tiles, paintings and crafts which result from twelve centuries of Moroccan art.
The cuisine is presented in a fashion that enhances it's surroundings and is considered by culinary experts to be among the top three cuisines worldwide.
In true Moroccan tradition, you will be treated to the rosewater hand wash and will be shown the etiquette behind consuming this wonderful cuisine.
"To my mind four things are necessary before a nation can develop a great cuisine. First the abundance of fine ingredients - a rich land. The second is a variety of cultural influences: the history of a nation, including it's domination by foriegn powers and the culinary secrets it has brought back from its own imperialist adventures. Third, a great civilization - if a country has not had its day in the sun , its cuisine will probably not be great; great food and a great civilization go together. Last, the existance of a refined palace life - without royal kitchens,...without the demands of a cultivated court - the imaginations of a nation's cooks will not be challenged" - Paula Wolfert, Couscous and Other Good Food from Morocco.
