WHERE TO EAT The best Tajine in the world (according to food experts)
1
Recommended by Alexander Lobrano and 13 other food critics.
"Run by a group of local women, this is the place to discover real Moroccan home cooking, including dozens of salads and tagines (meat, poultry, or fish braised in a conical ceramic dish with various garnishes)."

"Tuck into scrumptious, lovingly cooked traditional dishes in this beautiful family home. Meals are from a set menu, but you get a choice of 4 or 5 mains (think lamb tajine) - though it's very easy to fill up on the freshly baked bread and array of tasty Moroccan salads to start."

"The famous lamb tagine with caramelized oranges and a sauce of the meat’s juices, saffron, turmeric, and ginger is a must."

"Tonight, baby shark, calamari and monkfish, with fresh mountain spinach. Slowly cooked over charcoal in the classic clay pot that gives it its name, the Tagine's dome top. It's supposed to force the condensation back into the dish and keep it moist and tender. That's delicious. With these greens and the aromatics and herbs, I have no idea what they are. I've never had anything like that. The Tangier version of farm to table."

"Tender, piquant lamb tagine at Chez Chegrouni, Ali's recommendation. The handsome restaurant sparkled with enameled terra-cotta mosaics, yet the excellent food was less expensive."

"La Maison Arabe, Marrakesh's pioneer boutique riad hotel in the medina, takes its food very seriously. The culinary ambition comes courtesy of owner Fabrizio Ruspoli, whose restaurant Les Trois Saveurs triumphantly reclaims Morocco's beleaguered signature dish, the tagine."

"The classic Moroccan tajine of chicken with lemon and olives is a favourite here, but the fish version is also highly rated."
