Moroccan cooking is very creative. This elaborate cuisine which features salads, tagines, stews, cous cous, vegetables, lamb, fresh fish and chicken, accompanied by a refreshing mint tea, will send your taste buds to heaven.

The cities of Marrakesh and Fez have had a great influence on Morocco cuisine as a whole, as have many other cooking traditions such as the Arabic, the Andalusian, the Jewish, the Spanish, the Portuguese…all of these cultures have contributed to the type of food that you will find today in Asilah.

One of the most typical dishes is cous cous, cooked either with lamb or with chicken. This dish includes ingredients from various parts of the country, such as lemons from Fez, olives from Meknes, dates and almonds. Seafood from the Atlantic coast is also very common in this region.

You will find many restaurants in Asilah serving authentic Moroccan food, where you can enjoy a good cous cous, or roast lamb, all at a reasonable price. There are also many French restaurants in Asilah, both in the city and in the surrounding areas.
