Le couscous — Le plat of the Friday in Morocco, shared with family. La semoule is rolled to the main (un geste que our chef teaches you), then cuite to the steam above a bouillon de vegetables and de viande. Le couscous for 7 vegetables is a chef-d'work d'balance between sweet and savoury.
La pastilla — This flaky pastry is a monument of the gastronomy maroco-andalouse. Feuilles de brick, poulet or pigeon effiloche, amandes grilled, cannelle and sucre glace. Le contraste sweet-savoury surprises and delights. It is the recipe the most technique of our carte.
