He worked as the chef of the former King of Morocco Hassan II, inheriting the position of palace chef from his forefathers. He specializes in and is famous for meshwi lamb and the traditional Marrakshi dish called tangia. Biography 
He describes the barbecue culture of Marrakesh as having originated in the Sahara, having been passed down by ancestors and having retained its traditional and distinct style. His grandparents practiced the craft of barbecue at a jōṭia ( an open, periodic marketplace) near the current location of the carpet shops. There had been an dedicated alleyway for the grilling of heads, as head meat with sfenj was popular breakfast food at the time. Tanjia was the traditional food of the craftsmen. He has a restaurant in Marrakesh called 'end l-amīn ( lit. 'At the Amine's,' or  in French). See also
