Japanese guy tries COUSCOUS for the first time in Casablanca, Morocco🇲🇦

[@medmedin4541]

Couscous is one of the national dishes of Morocco, you can also try Tajine with prunes, Tanjiya, Bastilla, Rfissa. What I recommend is to visit the northern cities like Tangier to taste fish dishes, then the blue city Chefchaouen, then Marrakesh in the south, avoid big cities like Casablanca, Rabat and Fez. And one thing you should consider is that Moroccans love Japaneses people because they are respectful and hardworking, and don't mind it if someone identified you as Chinese or Korean because it's really hard to distinguish especially for Moroccan who have little contact with East Asia countries.

[@GeorgeJapan]

No worries, even me as a Japanese, it’s hard to distinguish Japanese/Korean/Chinese, so I don’t mind it at all😆

Hi George, ,, I noticed the great contrast between the Brazilian videos and the ones you are recording in Morocco... You know, in São Paulo you can find food from almost every country, including couscous. But I have to admit that what you ate was super tasty... I bet that after eating a lot AND drinking tea, your belly swelled... super full sensation...

Hi George! 😃 Here in Brazil we also have this dish. We call it Cuscuz, and it's very traditional in the northeast part of the country. I don't know how it become popular in Brazil, but i remember that when i was a kid my mom used to do it almost every day for breakfast. 🥞🍳 It's not exactly the same from Marocco but it's very similar.

[@gamaai]

Isso se tornou popular com a chegada dos árabes desde 1500 no nosso país, o nordeste principalmente tem muitosss descendentes de árabes, por exemplo, quando você vê alguém com o nome "Moura" é porque ele descende dos Mouros, que é o povo que dominava a região do norte da África, bem como o Marrocos! Abraços...

[@ceiaaraujo5351]

O povo nordestino tem descendência com o povo judeu também. O Rabino Ventura, que é KZbin, falou que a carne seca que nós nordestinos comemos, é uma herança judaica. Minha avó sempre me falava, não aponte as estrelas, senão vai nascer verruga nas pontas dos dedos, mas agora estou sabendo o significado, o Rabino explicou.

[@marroka000]

I was so surprised to see you came to Morocco lol I hope you enjoy your stay ! The drink they gave you with couscous is actually buttermilk, and I think it's the "home made" and kinda more natural type which is more sour than the store bought one, maybe that's why it reminded you of yogurt. Personnally, I prefer the store bought one, the other is too sour and textured for me haha I'm looking forward to the rest of your travels! I wonder if you will be coming to Rabat 😁

[@GeorgeJapan]

Thank you!😊 Ah I see! Yeah it tasted like pure yogurt. I’m planning to go to Rabat, Marrakech and Fes!

[@morocco_020fc7]

LOL they gave you the buttermilk(not yoghurt) to drink it with the couscous it's traditional. So it dingests better and it actually tasts good with it because couscous can be dry and to get it into your system you need something to drink(soda is also fine). Also couscous is a big meal so if you buy 1 it is actually meant for 2-3 people.
