FAT Brands Inc. has opened its first Fatburger and Buffalo's Express restaurant in Morocco. Located in Marrakesh on M Avenue, the co-branded restaurant provides American fare, including custom-built burgers and wings.

"Over the last 70 years, Fatburger has developed a loyal following across the globe," Jake Berchtold, COO of FAT Brands' fast casual division, said in a company press release. "While our burgers are often front and center, it also is the dining experience itself that has led to us now having over 200 locations worldwide. We look forward to introducing Marrakesh locals to our celebrated history and showing them why we have earned the title of Hollywood's favorite burger."

In addition to its burgers, the Fatburger menu also includes Fat and Skinny Fries, sweet potato fries, onion rings, the Beyond Burger, turkey burgers, hand-breaded crispy chicken sandwiches and hand-scooped milkshakes made from 100% ice cream. From the Buffalo's Express menu, patrons may choose bone-in or boneless wings accompanied by a range of sauces.

"Fatburger is truly the best burger out there," Franchisee Abdel Houachmi said in the release. "When I tried Fatburger for the first time years ago, I immediately knew this was a concept that would stand the test of time. I'm confident that when guests take their first bite of a Fatburger that they too will see why we are different from others in the burger space — big, juicy made-to-order burgers with endless toppings to select from."
