Jemaa el Fna
A visit to Marrakech would be incomplete without dining in Jemaa el Fna at least once. Your options include a popular stall serving mouth-watering fish and chips, while Aicha at stall #1 serves a bit of everything including tajines, mixed grill, and couscous. While the dining is outdoor, this is a great time to soak up the nighttime ambiance. Just remember not to go too early as the best food is served later in the night.
Amal Centre
The women serving and preparing the delicious home-cooked Moroccan cuisine at the Amal Centre are part of an initiative to help women who face challenges, such as illiteracy and poverty, to support themselves and their families. The restaurant is open daily for lunch, either in the garden or the renovated villa, serving Moroccan cuisine as well as a few international dishes. Head here on Fridays for couscous when the restaurant is often at capacity and reservations are highly recommended.
