"Fondouk Kaat Smen, the Honey Souk Hit the Fondouk Kaat Smen, otherwise known as the honey souk, to taste your way throughas many as 17 different wild honeys for sale.Varieties range from familiar orange blossom and lavender to more unusual treats like caper and carob.If jujube is available,note that it'sfavored for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, is considered to be particularly good for the liver and is locally consumed more as a medicine than something to spread on toast. People travel from afar to take this honey home, so the proprietor, Mr. Hicham, is used to packing it for air travel. Poparound the corner to the spice shop on Rue Bouhaj to stock up on freshly ground spices, too, likelemon-scented cumin, rich red paprika, ground ginger, sweet and earthy turmeric, and heady cinnamon."
