Tangier is a city with lots of gastronomic influences, from Jewish, to Christian, Berber and Arab. It’s rich in flavours, spices and plants, and involves a lot of hands-on eating techniques. Most dishes include meat, but if you’re a vegetarian, worry not, because Moroccan cuisine has a range of amazing veggie dishes, and in some restaurants they will even cook something upon-request just for you. Here are the 11 top vegetarian restaurants in Tangier.
