Food Guide - Dining Out in Fes, Morocco

Fes has a reputation as a culinary hot spot in Morocco. From delicious cheap road side snacks to elaborate feasts, eating out in Fes is a highlight of a visit to this fine imperial city. For a light lunch in Fes, join the locals at one of the simple medina cafes which are scattered throughout this fascinating district.

Favourite light bites include simple lentil dishes and the staple of the Moroccan diet, freshly baked bread. Expect to pay as little as a 1.00 Euro for a tasty, filling snack. For more substantial food in Fes, try a tajine. This is a traditional Moroccan stew which is cooked and served in a covered earthenware pot. Brochettes are also popular. These are kebabs that are roasted on a spit with plenty of herbs and often served with fries. Vegetarians will usually find the tasty options of couscous and Moroccan salad on offer.

For a real treat when dining in Fes, visit one of the palace restaurants. The most famous of palace restaurants in Fes is the enormous Restaurant Al Fassisa on Rue Salaj which features elaborate live entertainment which ranges from traditional folk music to belly dancing. For dessert in Fes, head to Blvd Mohammad or Ave Hassan II in the ville nouvelle and join the locals at one of the many Fes patisseries or ice cream parlours.
