Hallelujah!

I just stumbled upon the tiny Tagine last night and it was a rare treat.

Cool understated interior, candlelight and Edison bulbs dimly light the twelve tables, very loungy in the best sense of the word. The hummus was the best I've had and I think myself an expert, very creamy and the right amount of citrus and salt (the secret they told me is their preserved lemon). We had the bastilla with flaky crust and a great balance of sweet savory in the filling of braised hen, egg, almond and spices. We had to fight over the last bites but managed to remain friends. The lamb chops came and they were perfectly seasoned with a hint of cumin. The whole dinner was amazing and we really felt cared for. It was like a two-hour vacation.

Do yourself a favor and try it out before it becomes better known.
