Marrakech

Opening in 2021, this address right in the middle of Place des Ferblantiers, is resolutely focused on streetfood yet healthy cuisine. On the menu: falafels, wraps, pitas and bowls, filled with good stuff to devour guilt-free. All washed down with just the right amount of sweet homemade lemonade. The atmosphere is fresh and green, right down to the color of the parasols. The friendly French owner keeps an eye on things. Mazel ticks all the boxes: simple, good and efficient.

Les Jardins de Bala occupies a^13th-century palace-turned-luxury hotel in the heart of Marrakech's historic district. Step through the door and you enter a world of voluptuous refinement. Step out onto the terrace for a splendid view of the Koutoubia. This is where you'll find this Indian restaurant, perfect when you want to make an infidelity to Moroccan cuisine. Chicken satay, gambas biryani, spicy and fragrant tikka masala... all emblematic dishes that promise a culinary journey to Bollywood for dinner.

Morocco does not mean that we are only satisfied with tagines on the menu, the healthy cuisine is also popular. Here, everything is made fresh and the plate as well as the decoration show the freshness. You can choose from a variety of salted toast with avocado or runny egg, hearty poke bowls and exotic flavored cheesecakes. Not to mention the tasty healthy fruit juices. In short, simplicity in going to the essentials and something to enjoy without feeling guilty. Good to know: another branch has opened its doors at M. Avenue.

The Al Bahriya restaurant, right in the heart of the Guéliz bustle, offers a relatively diversified fish and seafood menu with good value for money. Despite its location on the edge of a busy street, the terrace, where local and foreign diners sit in rows, is packed most of the time. Service is fast and without fuss. For a truly local experience, as a discerning tourist carried away by the popular atmosphere, do as everyone else does - don't hesitate to eat with your fingers!

You were looking for the palace of the Thousand and One Nights, here you are! This festive place mixes Moroccan and Indian inspirations. Lounge and intimate atmosphere in a subdued lighting despite the volume of the rooms. The establishment offers a dining area, as well as a bar and a stage, where musicians and dancers follow one another. The Moroccan, French and Thai-inspired cuisine claims to be "world food". The services are meant to be top-of-the-range, but it is above all the place where Marrakesh and Casablanca and Westerners meet.
