Marrakesh Restaurant Review: Relax on plush cushions, recline against fabric-covered walls, watch the undulating belly dancer, and enjoy an exotic Moroccan experience as your waiter pours a watery ablution over your hands from a copper pitcher. The food generally matches the drama of the ambience. It’s possible to order à la carte, but most diners opt for the fixed price feast. It includes lentil soup; a mixed salad plate; sweet and savory b'stilla, a flaky pie filled with chicken and pungent spices, and sprinkled with powdered sugar; plus a choice of entrée. These are predominantly hearty tagines (Moroccan stews of lamb, chicken or hare), couscous dishes, and a variety of brochettes. Larger groups can order the dramatic mechoui, a traditional whole sheep grilled over a spit. Finish your culinary immersion with a pitcher of steaming mint tea accompanied by nutty baklava. |
