The Art of the Tagine

What do you picture in your mind when you think of Moroccan art? What kinds of paintings, sculptures, or artifacts do you imagine? As I mentioned before, the visual element of fine dining is crucial for a satisfying experience. The artwork at Morocco's Restaurant plays a key role in delivering the full magical experience. One of my favorite pieces is the tagine. No, I'm not talking about the food itself (which is also visually appealing), I'm talking about the pot in which it is cooked and served. The earthenware pot comes in a variety of sizes and colors, with different tribal designs etched on the surface. Nothing is like having the tagine served to you for the first time. The elegant artistry of the pot is mesmerizing as it is whisked off the surface of the bowl to reveal a rich delicacy.

Cultural Influences of Morocco

Today we will be talking about what makes Moroccan culture so distinct from the rest of the world. As mentioned yesterday, Morocco's geographical location has historically made it a hotspot for both cultural and economic exchange. WIth such a premier global location, Morocco also has a wide array of spoken languages. This includes Arabic, Moroccan Arabic, Berber, and French. Coupled with a rich history in language comes a rich and diverse cultural heritage of art, music, literature, and of course exquisite cuisine.
