Features of Moroccan Kitchen

The importance of agriculture and stockbreeding in the economy of the country shows itself in the Moroccan kitchen. So that in the Moroccan kitchen which has many varieties and a rich menu, the main food substance is meat. Goat, sheep, lamb, cow and chicken meat is used generally. Fish is also important in the kitchens of Moroccan cities that have coasts to Atlas Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. You can see many dishes are made with fish. Not only fish, but also other sea products that are served with varied sauces are similar to those in Turkish kitchen.

Actually, the most famous food of Moroccan kitchen is appetizers and fruits. In every dish, there is an appetizer necessarily with the main dish. Again, after every dish a fruit special to Morocco is eaten. Quince is the most popular fruit in Moroccan kitchen. They even make many desserts with quince. If you do not try these desserts in your Morocco trip, you will miss a lot in terms of your taste.

Pastilla, Harira and Kaliya are among the most famous dishes of Moroccan kitchen. Pastilla is made with serving thin dough with cinnamon, honey, almond, parsley and meat. Harira is a dish that different fish are used to make soups. As a very delicious dish Kaliya, is scorched with fresh sheep meat, tomato, pepper and onion, and served with proper spices and sauces. In addition to other 3 dishes, it is recommended to you to try these 3 dishes.

Coke is like the official drink of Morocco. Almost everybody drinks cold coke at dishes and in the streets. It is very cheap, only 10 dirham. If you are going to eat in restaurants, drinks are not included in the menus. They ask for extra money, so be careful about it. On the other hand, even though there are pos machines in many places, credit cards are not accepted. They are only used in big hotels and luxurious restaurants. That's why never trust your credit card, and leave your cash in your hotel room.

Transportation in Morocco

If you are going to use a taxi for your inner-city transportation, keep the taximeter running necessarily. Every driver will insist on not to use taximeter. Tell him that you will get off the taxi if he does not, or haggle for the one of third of driver's price. Because none of them will hesitate to ask you three times as much money as the normal. If you wish to have a more economical trip, you can use orange buses within the city.

In Morocco, the most used intercity transportation vehicles are trains or buses. But after you see the buses, you are definitely going to root for the train. Because the buses are too old, and almost dead. Even though the trains are faster and more comfortable than the buses, you may not be able to find tickets since they are very crowded. So, go the station early, and try to get on the train before anybody else does. Because since it is not possible to buy a fixed seat, it is highly possible for you to trip standing. If you do not want to encounter such a situation, you can make trip with 1st Class by paying %25 more.

Shopping in Morocco

No matter which city you are in, shopping in Morocco is very colorful and fun. You may not be able to stop yourself from buying lightened, fancy and splendent presents. But if you definitely want to buy a souvenir, we suggest you to buy some fabrics or clothes. Especially the long capes are indispensible clothes of Morocco. In addition to that, jewelry, French perfumes (very cheap), silver jewelries and decorative presents are in the list of buyables. You should not miss the original argan oils for your skin.

The most important advice that we can give to you is that you must haggle, you can buy one fourth of the price that the seller asks, no exaggeration. Haggle in almost every area other than food. At first they will say no, but act as if you were leaving, and you will see they reduce the price by half with the first step you take.

But to be able to visit them, you must wait for the azan. Otherwise these mosques are locked, because the Moroccans use the mosques to find a cool place to sleep.

Important Information about Morocco

Every country has some certain rules, and learning and obeying these rules or getting the benefit of somebody else's experiences can be life saver sometimes. In this context;

  • If you are going to travel with a taxi, make sure the taximeter is open and running. You might hear freakish costs at the end of your trip.
  • There are a lot of swindlers in Morocco. That's why you should wear your bag crosswise, and use small trip locks.
  • Decline the help requests from the local people in the street. Yes, you heard it right. They literally torment the tourists. No matter what assist they give to you, they will ask for money, and if you don't give it, they will follow or threaten you. Many Moroccans do not even have any reason to ask money from you. That's why no matter what happens, don't get their assistance, and decline their offers.
  • If you are going to travel on a camel, protect your tail end, because after 15-20 minutes, this trip turns into a torture. It might blister with effect of hot weather, and give you unbearable pains. You can make a cushion with your thick clothes to prevent this.
  • If you are going to the south and West Sahara districts of Morocco, you should be vaccinated against some illnesses. In addition to this, make sure that you drink water sold in the markets rather than tap water, and not to eat raw vegetables and fruits in places which you are not sure whether clean or not. Again, never eat anything sold on the streets.
