moroccancusine – South Harbour Café

Today we want to use our blog to tell you our story in this neighborhood of Copenhagen.

We were born and raised here, in my family it has always been a fundamental value to help our neighbors and friends. That is why we decided to stay here and open our business in this place. Leaving sydhavn was never an option as we believe it is part of our responsibility to help it prosper.

Over the years we have been participating both professionally and voluntarily in different projects (Pallieten, Bydelsmødrene) dedicated to helping people adjust to life in Copenhagen, teaching them the language, translating necessary documents for the different bureaucracies, accompanying people to the doctor to translate what they needed, teaching women and children to ride a bicycle or even helping their children to do their school homework.

Our greatest inspiration for all this has always been our mother, she taught us to take care of others, to share and to love cooking, because as she said, food unites people, regardless of origin, religion or thought.

She taught us to empower ourselves and to see ourselves capable of doing anything, always with effort and perseverance.

For this reason, now, we want to share with our environment everything we have learned trying to empower the women of our community and serving as support so that in this way they can overcome any difficulty.

WELCOME TO OUR BLOG

A few years ago my sister and I decided to undertake this project, a project in which we intended to bring to Denmark, a piece of our Moroccan culture through flavors, smells and music.

Little by little this idea took shape and became South Harbor Café, a little piece of Morocco in Copenhagen.

Over the years we have created a family that has made us grow as a business and above all as people. In recent months, recognition has materialized in awards and reviews that have made it possible for our typical dishes to be marketed in supermarkets, thus making it possible for our project to reach more people, projecting our dream where we would never think it would reach.

Thanks to you, who have always supported us and accompanied us on our way, we have achieved all this, and that is why we would like to start a new stage, creating this blog where we can share a little bit of our culture, our progress, promotions, recipes, music, fun facts and everything else to come.

I hope that in this way we can continue to connect and get to know each other a little better, supporting multiculturalism and exchanging flavors and smiles.
