sumptuous palace option with plush couches, wall rugs, intimate dining spaces (especially
upstairs), gurgling fountains and a grand Moorish arch complementing the usual four-course
meal. Follow the lane north around the Grande Mosquée and look for signs directing you down
a tiny alley. Be sure to duck into Les Secrets des Plantes first, on the right just before the
entrance, where 670 spices line the walls.
Cafeteria Emirates €
Offline map Google map (5 Ave Ouahda; 6am-10pm) This large place with its shiny black and
chrome decor is the trendiest place to be seen in town, and is a good option for women. The
coffee is good and they make great juices (Dh15).
Oahda €
Offline map Google map (16 Rue al-Ouahda; 7am-9pm, closed Fri afternoon) Another female-
friendly cafe, not as nicely appointed as Emirates, but just as popular with locals. Sticky cakes
are a speciality. A bit claustrophobic on the upper floor.
Dallas €
Offline map Google map (11 Rue Youssef ben Tachfine; 6am-10pm) Yes, named after the TV
show, but otherwise the name has no bearing on this place, a patisserie stacked to the rafters
with plates of pastries. This is where local families come to load up on sweets. One block off
Ave Mohammed V.
Pannini €
Offline map Google map (5-6 Ave Mohammed Ben Aboud; panini from Dh20; noon-11pm)
Made-to-order sandwiches make this a standout option. Choose from a smorgasbord of
ingredients both normal and exotic.
