completes our major first day in Morocco uh from here we are jumping back in the van and we’re driving on our way to rabbat which is going to be about a 1hour driveway and that’s where we’re going to spend the [Music] night oh welcome to Rabat it’s known to be the cleanest the greenest city in Morocco and Casablanca is the capital uh the financial Capital the Commerce Capital but rabbat is the government capital and so I’m excited to explore uh tomorrow we’ll be having a full day in rabbat uh but I’m also extremely sleepy that jet lag is kicking in uh so I’m about to go to sleepy immediately and I’ll see you in the morning and this is the the hotel we’re staying at [Music] [Applause] tonight I’m in Rabat this is the capital city of Morocco and if you love to eat it’s one of the greatest Moroccan food cities we’re going on an ultimate food tour and starting with street food specialized in all sorts of uh bread but uh of course those breads that you see right here are something that you can find almost everywhere in Morocco but what unique to like Rabat and the region here is this stringy looking bread is the name of this bread it’s like a stringy bread we’re talking actually about the same recipe like but it’s a totally different technique it’s like making noodles they keep like stretching the dough and uh pting it out until they obtain like super thin uh wires Che cheers m m no oh it’s all about the texture exactly we crunchy a little bit mhm really nice yeah the dough has a really nice chewi to it like a like a really chewy noodle almost then just with that sweetness from the the honey contrasting the saltiness of the dough originally or traditionally this bread is served for the newly married couple on their first breakfast together ah okay but of course now since it’s available in the Market you can get married every day okay well Muhammad this is our day man this Old Town of rabbat dates back I mean approximately a thousand years ago and it’s so beautifully well preserved it’s a UNESCO world heritage site and it’s also walking only just like many of the old towns within Morocco uh so there are some motorbikes but no no vehicles no cars which makes it really nice for walking around this is literally a the third generation of the same family running this uh business their own specialty is Shia Shia which is a a specialty suite and so they’re actually wrapping them fresh here in the back made from a dough he folds them into a little like ribbons almost then they’re deep fried and then they’re dunked into a bucket of Honey to just absorb that honey and then they’re drained what a process oh you can see how feel how crispy they are and then so sticky from that [Music] honey totally surprised I thought it was going to be crispier it’s actually more crumbly exactly wow when you pick it up it feels like it’s going to be a chip like totally crunchy all the way through but yeah it’s more like a a soft dough exactly the honey actually crumbl soaks in the honey the honey that probably reduces the crispiness yep wow C again really good oh I can smell it wrapped up in this plastic bag that is an absolute steam bath steamed cows head the whole head steamed for 6 hours it’s literally melting just falling off the the headbones oh you can feel how jiggly it is look at the way it just melts it melts in your fingers

that is Extreme tenderness oh man steamed cow head with bread cumin chilili pepper that was so so good and again the convenience of the street we’re going back across the street a second time to eat next we have actually here a very typical street food of the city of Rabat it’s makuda and sardines so Mak actually is just like a mashed potato bowl battered in eggs and flour and everything is deep fried and then you have the sardines actually right here like two sardines one against each other with a charma like a marinade in between and again everything deep fried you know oh that’s a nice

to add the meat next so the beef gets loaded in uh that’s all beef coming from the rump part of the beef uh and you can see there’s also pieces of bone with the marrow in his eyes so you can tell all

food uh and then then we’re actually going to explore and then we’re going to come back here for dinner that’s a plan for the rest of the day but really cool place Fez was one of the Cities I was most looking forward to visiting in Morocco for its ancient history and also being one of the biggest Old City centers preserved in the entire Arab Muslim world as is the scientific capital of Morocco and also is this spiritual City we do have more than 9,400 streets and alyes and it’s all those are all walking streets no cars no cars cars prohibited and let me tell you this we do have the narrowest streets which is 50 cm 50 cm yes because an old section okay yeah oh so they have to support the so the walls aren’t coming in it’s 1,200 years wow 12 century wow and then of course one of the incredible things about Fez is that it’s a living City just people live here businesses of every kind I mean you don’t actually ever need to [Music] leave oh man I love how sometimes there’s a natural light coming in from the top but then sometimes you duck into almost cave like alleys with a roof on [Music] top there you go the good thing that you will get a cactus fruit and you will get a free lipstick there is seeds inside show it but not hard and SW it is healthy M to very good s and it’ll give you a whole red milk my mouth is full of juice oh it smells good oh yes wow we smell this cloud of steam coming from here one of them is a mixture of meats you have everything in there uh like beef lamp uh some of the head Parts the cheeks the whatever pieces of meat goes into to that big pot of meat and you have here chicken with the rice noodles and spices wow this is closet sized food stall it literally is closet and then they have a little more seating over here on the other side of the alley also there is veggies Some people prefer it in Sandwich some people in a plate so oh it’s really fluffy it just melts in your mouth yeah oh Ultra tender and I love the cumin on here as well is so tender said this one is the oh that’s the the testicle the skin potentially the outside skin that needs a deserves a dip in the tomato [Laughter] sauce M oh the tomato sauce it just brightens it up tomato sauce the freshness of the herb in there like a coriander maybe the paru and the the skin of the testicle is definitely a little bouncy in your mouth it kind of sticks to your to the roof of your mouth a little bit oh that’s tasty Shak you kind of just totally get lost within this unbelievable maze that is Fez I mean not only your orientation but even the time of the day you just kind of don’t have any clue where you are what time of day it is you’re just lost within this unbelievable Labyrinth of Fez narrowest streets which is 50 cm here we go one of the extremely narrow streets in Fez watch your head watch your sides it literally is a tunnel careful to the left right okay and we have emerged that is amazing has to be one of the coolest most ancient tea shops you’ll ever see the water boiling in the copper and he’s got this burner that goes below the spet of the water so he just kind of controls that with the fire with the water and he’s making concocting a tea with so many different herbs and he uses just a whole handful wat of herbs uh stuffs that into the water and then you can choose different herbs depending on what you want okay and so that that’s the tea boiling in the in the little cups and then that goes directly into an entire cup just packed hand packed full of herbs oh man oh oh man that is so good that’s just a full herbal experience that’s the most

egg the Hara goes in the olive oil something so simple but so good it is a a carb overdose but it’s yeah overall healthy energy pack filling affordable um just has it all and I mean a crowd to prove why it’s so popular gives it that complexity that saltiness that acidity that goes great with it a little bit of chili there’s a little bit of heat from the hoodies off but not much just mostly about that preserved lemon I think when you come out of the food section there’s just a whole Carnival of performances and I mean it’s been this square has been used for since the 12th century as a Gathering Place uh for performances for storytelling now games musical performances and there’s even a fishing and also a a modh coin throwing Casino yeah [Music] okay are you supposed to twist it yes there you go it’s harder it’s harder to do than it then it looks but they don’t move their head right you have to really concentrate oh man it’s so much more than a street food Night Market of Moroccan food it’s a cultural Landmark it’s a UNESCO world heritage site storytelling music people coming together in this Square to share time together to eat to learn from each other a place where people have gathered for hundreds of years cheers hey cheers man thank you guys what a night guys what a [Music] [Music] night welcome to the beautiful historical ancient and always delicious city of Marakesh in [Music] Morocco we are on our way to eat some of the best food in the city and we’re about to start eating right now the guy he doesn’t allow anyone by the way like to uh make the donuts except for himself so when he’s sick they shut down the whole place you can see how wet that dough is yeah so he has to wet his hand so it doesn’t stick and he really molds that dough into ring shapes into doughnut shapes with his fingers man that is just true experience and skills and as it starts to deep fry and boil the dough you can just see how it starts to puff up it gets really bubbly and then he fries it until it’s completely golden crispy another version they take the doughnut uh mash it on the inside you can see how bubbly it is and then drop an egg in the center oh what a move oh man that’s a unique dough for sure M you like it oh yeah yeah it’s a Savory donut really bubbly and crispy but the inside is a little bit gooey spongy yes and then for the egg one oh man that is crispy and greasy and tasty oh yeah that gives it a different texture that adds that that egg protein to it everything is just like cemented together with the egg conveniently literally right next door the neighbor we’re going to try our next food we’re stopping here to eat something called bisara which is a fava bean soup and at first I thought I mean it almost looks like a porridge like a wheat or a rice porridge because it’s so white in color but as soon as he starts scooping it out you can smell the aroma of the fava beans so I think maybe the Skins are removed uh so he dishes that out he sprinkles in some cumin and then gives it a squirt of olive oil stir in that olive oil the cumin oh it’s a really kind of a soupy consistency not too not too thick yes y I love fava beans in all forms shapes and sizes yeah in all different formations yeah it’s really starchy and thick just the flavor of the cumin I like it how it’s not salty at all just relying on the the the hardiness of the the fava beans exact makes an excellent breakfast I mean straight up a like a beans porridge so it’s midm morning now in mesh streets are starting to pick up markets are opening oh man so it’s called CH Omar yes what a friendly man and this Aroma just fills the entire Street with the aroma of his sizzling meat he has a big iron griddle there’s CA sausages there’s little meatballs there’s chicken all seasoned with his his own spice mixture you really smell the cumin in there a little bit of turmeric seasoned sprinkled with parsley and then on the other side he has sausages he has a mountain of onions which are just slowly sautéing until they start to disintegrate and melt into the sauce and then he continually just kind of sprinkles on Dust it with spices with cumin gives it a little spray of oil to keep it hydrated and just continues to to sizzle it over the [Music] [Music] grill oh man it’s all packed into a bun with a little sausage at the top oh I can’t wait this is so good all right oh yes oh wow here’s the man Chay Omar Chay Omar over there is the man oh man it’s so dizzy all slow grilled over that hot grle I love the fresh crunch of the fresh onions in there along with the melting caramelized onions the KFTA the mined meat the chicken in there those little sausages I mean it’s all in there we have a bunch of like local restaurants as you can see like the first stop in the food market will be the beans actually he’s like one of the best beans makers by the way slow cooked with some paprika garlic preserved lemon and just like the best of the best of the spices that we have in Morocco that we’re about to happen and I think I’ve probably mentioned my love for beans a number of times also today but throughout many videos so we’re about to eat more beans oh man can’t get enough beans this is a unique garlic I can see you can actually just squeeze it out like like a paste yeah it’s like garlic paste almost can squeeze it out into your beans dip into the beans with that garlic paste scoop on with your thumb oh oh W yes but that garlic oh that’s what takes it to the next level with the flavor of the preserved lemon the melt in your mouth white beans the olive oil that really slow stew that everything melts in your mouth but the flavor of that garlic is just what’s blowing my taste buds at the moment moving on to the next place and this is something extremely legendary this place is extremely Fant exactly everybody’s been here but this is one of the most famous restaurants in Mar right exactly very like right moment by the way here so we put everything in a pot we shake it real good we close it and then we take it like underground to be cooked it’s one of our slow cooks that we really love in America it’s America specialty by the way so they use these sticks by the way oh man that is the most amazing Oven lamb pit you’ll ever see I mean it’s just loaded with a dozen Lambs that are just skewered that just go deep into that oven and just that you can feel the heat oh there comes a whole lamb just dripping in juices crispy look at that skin that juice and they go to the front to serve up to chop up to serve up oh man that is impressive I mean that’s that whole lamb he just pulls out of the oven is gigantic it’s so deep it’s a couple meters deep and they just unearth the entire lamb just dripping in juices oh half a lamb all the meat Aromas are unbelievable you’re welcome oh and he’s feeding me a bite it’s for you but it’s very hot oh this is shoulder oh wow he just pulled the bone out yeah it just literally slid out oh man all that melts in your mouth we’re right up here in the action he’s slicing there’s literally a pool of lamb fat and oil on The Chopping board the amount of juices is unbelievable the crispy lamb oh man that is so good oh man oh wow thank you welcome it’s so juicy it’s so crispy man yeah that’s extraordinarily tasty yeah the freshness I think I mean the way they the oven bake it it just seals in all the the fat that’s a like lamb candy man wow it’s one of those bites where you immediately feel like you’re you’re wearing lip gloss because of the Lamb P oh man this place is just unbelievable it is packed and congested but Marakesh what an incredible City uh it’s so full of life and so many delicious foods to eat we had a little bit of a break this afternoon and now for dinner tonight we’re in a totally different area of mesh this is the modern the new side of mesh place called M Avenue and we’re going to go to a new interpretation a fancier style restaurant that serves Moroccan food it’s a total contrast to what we’ve been eating I can’t wait to try the let’s go in for the Tania first oh that oily juices oh oh good oh it’s so tender so tender the meat is melting oh that’s so hot down there all right all right the preserved lemon in there immediately taste very everything’s melted melted together spring baby chicken oh look at that rich sauce on the bottom too wow again I got a piece of preserved lemon in there oh man plus the creaminess of the eggplant the the the texture of the maze is like on point not too soft like mil in a pot but you can still chew a little bit of the chicken really moist oh yeah yeah very nice juicy now we’re moving right along to the next dish that’s a nice formation cabbage she said there was filo dough oh the surprise meat on the inside oh where’s the filo dough No the is that on the bottom cabbage Foo oh it’s a cabbage Foo okay so the okay the feel I get it now okay I get it with the tender meat on the inside you see that cabbage which is nice and charred and then you can maybe hopefully you can see on the bottom here there’s some oh caramelized onions and sauce smells good okay uhhuh [Music] oh there’s the one she said is sweet and salty at the same time oh man tastes like like fruit jam with tender meat oh thank you wow try this immediately yes yes oh oh wow oh W that’s the bite so far of the meal that c fat that’s like keeps the chicken unbelievably juicy it changes the chicken completely actually wow wow I think that makes the chicken more Lammy than chickeny without a doubt yeah oh that’s lamb chicken wow that’s how you improve chicken you add lamb to it this is actually chili oh hidden below a piece of chicken oh it’s nice and hot down there too yeah and then we’re going to add some of that sauce oh yeah the onions in there yeah the onion reduction sauce oh man well this is another one of those Moroccan dishes that you can tell is already going to be sweet salty main dish medium and chickeny but but also sweet at the same time yep w [Music] wow wo it’s hard to process and more flavors are building up yeah like the cinnamon sugar is at first the first thing you taste but then like the Savory notes of the onions yeah and the chicken and then the the belli is really soft very soft like totally melt in your mouth a fantastic meal and now with dessert Muhammad is especially excited to try this dessert yeah exactly it’s like two of my favorite desserts smooshed together the apple pie and the Pasa with milk oh nice we tried we tried johara in kasablanca yeah like the custard fough thing so custard simar to that mixed with an apple pie nice so it’s kind of a modern Moroccan dessert oh yeah so it’s going to be that contrast of the ice cream apple pie Foo y y man yeah yeah good exactly M apple pie mixed with Zara smoosh together butteriness of the Foo wow wow yeah it’s really good it’s like a it’s like an apple jam inside yeah yeah and it’s so fine so thin with the cold ice cream cold ice cream warm apple pie it’s a combination next up oh yeah oh is this the rice this is B it’s like uh pasta oh pasta like a Moroccan pasta uo on the sides and berries M wow the nuttiness of the almonds the tartness of the berries the pasta yeah I never had pasta’s a dessert I believe oh Al so it’s not something that’s common that’s like a new a new tation oh yeah red bubble cake okay but really nicely done lots of different yeah kind of like spreads and creams and berries yeah oh you can see how moist it is oh yes very moist a little foam M the berries oh yeah oh the raspberries in also the Juice in the cake wow the blackberries are good yeah yeah it’s really good it’s really moist is what I like yep perfect perfect way to end a a meal yes definitely yeah great meal great uh Innovative Moroccan food and desserts as well yeah well that was a great dinner and the staff are all very nice as well and just shows the contrast and diversity and what’s available in Marakesh good morning just wanted to give you a quick update uh but we’re staying in Riyad which is an old Inn or an old Lodge uh family family house actually that’s been converted into a Inn but right within the Old Town within the Medina of mes it’s pretty basic but it is clean and there’s not a lot of space it is pretty small as well especially with the extra bed so I’m just making my morning coffee here I have my computer in my office in back of me right there let me give you pass that camera over let me give you a quick look at the the office over here the office of the of the day downloading photos downloading videos charging station and you know something that’s uh oh yeah something let me show you here do you know they have the plugs with the two round round pins and then I have this heavy heavy charger and it always falls out so I have to use the tripod to prop it up that’s the one of the best uses of a tripod so it’s definitely quite basic accommodation but clean small and uh the location is really good right like maybe about 100 m or so from Gemma Elna the the main square and of course I can’t travel without my own coffee ah yeah that just makes life better today we Drive about an hour and a half back to the outlas mountains where we are going to have a very special meal lamb cooking lamb yes lamb no wait I need to run do you want to be in the documentary what documentary what what is a documentary the documentary this is the full the full video documentary yes visiting Morocco visiting [Music] Morocco just taking a quick look over the kasba what is it’s a UNESCO world heritage by the way and the KAS actually is a movie Set It was used for Game of Thrones recently I uh also saw uh Gladiator too in the making they built the arena right next to you know why they film a lot of movies here though it’s just really picturesque with the mountains with the valley with the kaspa the the village and the homes and the unique architecture of this [Music] region that was probably one of the most beautiful scenic drives areas that we’ve been to in Morocco so far extremely beautiful happy to be here and we have traditional huge meal that we’ve come for and now we’re getting into the village oh it’s a beautiful hike through the forest through the village and we definitely need the exercise after the amount of food and meals Moroccan food we’ve been eating oh so this is the oven that’s the oven right here within tucked within the mountains and the oven is built literally built into the Rock and let’s just take a peek at that oven on the inside there oh so it’s been lit already fire blazing on the bottom yeah oh you feel that heat coming out in order to bake or roast the lamb I guess they they also uh burn some fire at the bottom but they have to plug that hole and make it airtight when they’re going to put the lamb in so now they’re they’re just using a combination of rocks and gravel here we go we’ve got the lamb a baby lamb 10 kilos uh and it’s just plain lamb but it’s been they’ve wiped it rubbed it in butter to seal in the juices to make the skin extra crispy this is about to go into the oven they starting to seal up the oven oh so rocks go on foil goes on so he mixes some mud and then now they’re just totally sealing it totally covering all those holes so that none of the none of the heat escapes from the oven think that they add at the end yeah this is like the indicator uh so once it started to dry it means that we’re close oh really yeah this is a baby l so it will need like a maximum of 1 hour and a half it’s time as soon as he releases the pressure releases the steam you can smell that that’s Smoky Aroma coming from the lamb all sealed up in that oven oh here it comes see it see see there it is we’re all sitting down for the lamb yeah the lamb sculpture poked with the skewers the kababs of organs oh that’s a beautiful beautiful thing beautiful location thank you very much I think we should just tear in leg section is very muscular actually oh it’s hot down yeah it’s very hot P cheers oh wow yes wow the naturalness of the Lamb oh that’s the mountain lamb oh the flavor just keeps on coming actually when you keep on chewing M even has a natural sweetness to it oh the drumstick oh the leg drumstick is amazing that’s where you got the skin that’s just kind of dried out um crisp ified into the meat so kind of crunchy condensed the flavor what a lamb fish oh that was so good I’m just surrounded by the Atlas Mountains fresh air clean natural tasting ingredients I think that’s what really stood out good morning it’s another beautiful day in Marakesh but today we are driving to the coast another famous city that’s known for its seafood and and we’re going to I think it’s about a 2 and 1/ half hour drive to get there we’re going to go there uh we’re going to go on a full Seafood tour we’re going to have a lot of food and try some of the local Specialties and then we’re going to come back to mesh to spend the night uh that’s the plan for the day good morning T morning good morning good morning how are you very good very good and you everything is okay good yes thank you we’re on our way to isaa and it should be about a 2 and 1/ half hour [Music] drive [Music] one of the many great things about Morocco is there’s always coffee available hot fresh coffee and actually decent coffee you know made with a full espresso machine good C oh good morning morning good morning hello hello hello they have a coffee on the side of the road though oh yep yep [Music] yep just stopping on the side of the road for our first glimpse of esaa beautiful city with the Atlantic actually before we start eating Seafood we’re stopping by to learn more about Argan the Argan tree and Argan Oil actually this is the fruits inside there is like a little pit and inside of the pit there is a nut so the oil is made from the from the nut the nut So within the Argan Fields we’ve met up with Haida Haida and family and family oh nice okay this is the argan oil factory we’re going to see the process of the Argan Oil making this is the Argan fruits we open them first ah and this will feed animals sweet next step is we crush and then you crack open that seed yeah crack open nut is the Aran nut this one is roasted one okay this one is the one normal all right with this we will make the one for food with this we will make the one for cosmetic oh that smells so good really toasty Aroma yep okay and so the next process is once those seeds are roasted then they’re just ground using the traditional method the grinding stone and you can just see and the aroma that comes out of it it’s so nutty so toasted uh and that comes out like a like a paste but you can also see how oily it is as well oh even the oil is starting to separate on the on the bottom as it comes out yeah now she’s going to show us the process of separating the paste from the oil so she added a little bit of water to kind of react so the oil reacts with the paste yeah comes a dope and so she’s been massaging it and working it kneading it for almost 20 minutes now and now the texture has totally changed it’s started to crumble and you can see the oil coming out but it’s so such a a tedious process takes so long and I mean she’s just continually continually massaging it and man the Aromas are coming out it’s shining so that’s the fresh Argan Oil I’m going to taste it for the first time here directly from the source that’s is the most natural Argan Oil you could possibly get oh man that’s so fragrant so toasted and nutty and has a natural sweetness as well all right some tea yeah and we’re sitting down the freshly baked bread and then one of the popular ways to actually use argan oil in food is with AMU so we this is the AMU okay AMU is also alocal product this is the Almond we roast them also we ground them then we add the Argan Oil we add honey it give us space nice okay oh that’s incredible oh man the rum of

  1. Thank you to all involved in creating this fabulous documentary! The soul of the Moroccans, the food, and the land/sea brought tears to my eyes. I must be in Morocco once and for all!

  2. Thank you for sharing food and travel in different places in Morocco. Long vlog I enjoyed so much
    .interaction with people and food makes you a better person..❤❤❤

  3. This was the best food tour video I’ve ever seen! We didn’t know your channel before, but we watched the entire documentary, subscribed, and are online right now planning a trip to Marrakech. The seafood, the shawarma, the oven in the mountains, I can’t even say which was my favorite – we just want to follow your entire trip! Thank you!!

  4. I love Morocco and its people. I lived in Morocco for almost 6 months and travelled all over. Beautiful country. Amazing agriculture. But the food disappointed me. I found the best meals were fresh barbecued fish with French fries and a fresh salad OR French food. They have fabulous French restaurants and Moroccans who know how to cook French food. Try the hotel Le Mirage in Tangiers. Absolutely stunning with such an incredible restaurant!

  5. سير أحنيني غسل مصارنك من داك السم لي كليتي ويلي قلة النظافة و الزيت موسخة و الشوايات كحلين انا مصدومة منين كياكل

  6. I'm actually wondering what Camel meat tastes like, compared to what other animal meat? That Grilled Camel meat Feast, aswell as the Seafood at the Market, Looks 2 die for Delicious!

  7. Hi Mark, my wife and I are heading to Morocco at the end of the year for 5 days can you point me to the best area in Casablanca for authentic Moroccan food and street food.

  10. Senti gran admiracion por ellos, son arriesgados al probar diferentes platos pero luego verles la cara de que difrutan de sus alimentos te roban una sonrisa😂

  11. I remember watching you from Micah was a very little baby 🥰 Now look at him 😲 He is growing soooooooo quickly, by the time he is 16yr old, he would have been very well travelled and have an Amazing tastebud to a well traveled palate 🥰 God bless his little cotton socks 💙
