The recommended music for this dance is “Miss Betsy Robertson” (trad.) which has been recorded by at least 15
different artists, always as a strathspey. This dance begins with The Knot which was devised as a strathspey
formation and yet the dance is a reel.
It dances very nicely as a strathspey, and The Knot in reel-time loses its elegance .....
Moroccan House is a guest-house in the Pretoria suburbs where visitors are treated to a visual feast of authentic
hand-made Moroccan crafts and magical lanterns. The rooftop café captures the essence of a Moroccan house's
entertainment area - in the Moroccan culture the highest form of honour, is to be invited into someone's home
for a meal. Some recommendations from the menu are:
Moroccan-infused cordials - rose, mint, rosemary lemonade, cinnamon citrus - Moroccan magic juice!
Kefta tagine - egg poached in spicy moroccan meatballs in tomato sauce served with fresh spiced bread.
Rghaif - Moroccan pancake drizzled with honey-butter served with fresh fruit and spiced syrup.
