Title: Good Moroccan Food?
Post by: Ben on January 28, 2007, 08:51:04 AM
A young lady wants me to go to a Moroccan restaurant. I haven't been to one in like twenty years, and can't remember what I had that one time or if I even liked it. Any recommendations on stuff that's good?

And yes I'm left-handed and I'm gonna eat with my damn left hand.  grin

Couscous.
Usually you get some stewed vegetables and meat served over couscous.  Meat can be chicken or lamb or beef.  I often make this myself.

The vegetable stews are extremely tasty. They usually have a spice that adds a new dimension, like cinnamon, and are often served with couscous, yes. Couscous is a miniscule pasta common in Moroccan and Israeli cusine.

Moroccan food is pretty good for you. Lots of veggies, low in fat, but the soups are really savory.

And it's a regular silverware sort of thing...Ethiopian food is the one you eat with your hands, rolling up the spicy stews and such with bread. Smiley

I can handle a stew / couscous thing I think, especially if there's dead animal in it.  Smiley

There usually is, yes...often lamb stewed for so many hours that it just melts in your mouth...good stuff. :9

Don't worry, it's not like vegan or anything. Smiley
