October in Morocco






Jenni and Kim hoped to whisk our friends off to another land. With so many amazing cultures in the world, we wanted to try presenting some place most of us would never get a chance to travel to. Morocco is a country with such a melting pot of surrounding cultures. The food ranged from a Mediterranean style fare, to Jewish infused flavors, and some typical Spanish and African ingredients. It gave us many different flavors and textures to enjoy.

What a fantastic night. Loved everything about it. You really transformed your home into a moroccan experience. The food was amazing. I really enjoyed the biyeeza(the chicken pie). The food was awesome, but getting a chance to visit with you was the BEST! Love you guys.
