Flavours
A fishing port, a clay for tagines and an oyster coast: in Safi, the table tells the story of the city.
The port
Safi lives from the sea. The fish comes into port every morning, and prawns, grilled fish and seafood have a large place at the table.
The clay
Tagines are cooked in dishes shaped on the potters' hill. The same clay is used to cook and to serve.
The coast
Further north, the Oualidia lagoon is known for its oysters. Sea urchins are eaten on the spot, facing the water.
At the table, morning to night
A Moroccan breakfast of bread, honey, olives and tea, traditional biscuits at tea time, spices and dried fruit at the souk: we take you where the people of Safi shop and eat.
