what to eat in fes?
you gotta eat a pastilla while you're here, the sweet and savory pigeon pie thing is iconic. for a solid one, try restaurant al fassia in the ville nouvelle, it's pricier but the real deal. also, don't skip the street food stall at place r'cif for a late-night bowl of harira, that soup is perfect after a long day in the medina
The food scene here is all about layers of flavor. For a proper introduction, find a place that serves rfissa, it's shredded msemen with chicken, lentils, and a fenugreek broth that's deeply savory and a little sweet. I'd skip the tourist traps near the Blue Gate and walk a few blocks into the medina for better versions at half the price. Also, keep an eye out for small bakeries selling harsha, that semolina flatbread is perfect with a glass of mint tea in the morning.
honestly the street food game in fes is unmatched. hit up the tanneries area and grab some brochettes from the little grills tucked in the alleys, they're like 5 dirhams each and way better than the sit-down places. also, if you see a guy selling snails (babbouche) near bab boujloud, try a bowl with the spicy broth, it's a weird texture but the locals swear by it for cold evenings
