The New Flavor of Camel Burgers

For our lunch break in Fes yesterday we went to the Clock Cafe, named after the water clock that used to occupy the street outside its terrace. Found down a twisting alley in the old Medina of Fes, the Clock Cafe is an ex-Pat restaurant serving a fusion approach to many international dishes, which included chickpea vegi-burgers, milkshakes with almond and dates as flavor options, and my flavor for the afternoon Camel Burgers.
The flavor of the ground camel was enhanced by a collection of spices that I really should have gotten the name of.
The challenge of eating the camel burger was the comparatively small size of the bun that was used to support patti that fell apart rather quickly during the eating process. If you ever do visit the Clock Cafe I would definitely recommend trying the camel with a Chocolate Almond milkshake to wash it down. Be warned that the milkshakes served are not as thick as many Americans are used to.
