A Taste of Morocco

Restaurant Find: Marrakesh Moroccan Restaurant

Saturday night Jeremy and I went to dinner with a group of our friends to celebrate our friend Jared. He's a Canadian (crazy, I know) who's being shipped back to the motherland this week. We're all going to miss him like crazy, so to say goodbye we went out to Marrakesh. It's a fun little Moroccan restaurant on NW 21st that spares no details as they attempt to recreate a true Moroccan dining experience. Think less Casablanca, more pillows on the floor and belly dancers! We decided to go for the Royale Feast Dinner, perfect for a larger group. All five courses are shared family style and there is PLENTY of food. My favorite was the Chicken with Honey & Prunes, but others in our group swore by the lamb dishes. Everything was delicious, the entertainment was excellent, just be ready for your butt to be numb by the end.
