Abu Dhabi’s Moroccan Gem | When Lamb Meets Prunes
📍 Panini Di Casa (4.7/5 on Google!) 🍽️ First-Time Moroccan Food Adventure Tried classics: Tagine, couscous, pastilla – no idea if "authentic," but delicious! Bread first: Like Middle Eastern meals, but Moroccan bread is denser, brioche-like (4-5 AED extra). 🔥 Standout Dishes 1️⃣ Lamb Tagine with Prunes (Must-order!) Slow-cooked lamb + sweet prunes/apricots + cinnamon/saffron, topped with almonds. Sweet-savory magic – tender meat, complex spices, unexpectedly addictive. 2️⃣ Chicken Tagine with Veggies (Coal-Fired) Smoky from charcoal, but too many peas + slight burnt taste. Lesson learned: Pair lamb tagine with couscous next time! 3️⃣ Moroccan Mint Tea Fresh mint + sugar + green tea = liquid dessert. Perfect palate cleanser! 💰 Damage: ~80 AED per person Verdict: A solid intro to Moroccan flavors in Abu Dhabi – sweet, spicy, and so fragrant. #AbuDhabiEats #MoroccanFood #TagineLove
