The many pleasures of Moroccan haute cuisine

Riad Monceau’s reputation as a guesthouse is further complemented by the excellent table it keeps. Here, you will have the chance to sample and savour the very finest that Moroccan culinary arts have to offer.

And there’s no lack of choice as to where to enjoy your meals – in the relaxing setting of the
riad’s restaurant, by the open fireplace in the lounge bar, alongside the swimming pool in the Andalusian patio, or on one of the sun-drenched rooftop terraces. Sit back and acquaint yourself with such deliciously refined dishes as mouth-watering tanjia marrakchia, tajine of royal quails
with caramelised pears, and authentic pigeon pastilla. Our ‘discovery’ menu changes on a daily basis, depending on what fresh produce is to be had at the local markets.

Desserts include the truly sublime milk pastilla and fruit brochettes with citrus fruit honey – to be savoured unashamedly. Last but not least, a wide choice of generously prepared salads is available at lunchtime – making a pleasant break between shopping sessions in the bustling heat of the medina streets.

Cooking workshops. The Riad Monceau restaurant also offers you the opportunity to acquaint yourself with the secrets of the moroccan cuisine during light-hearted morning workshops where you will learn how to use spices, prepare brick pastry and couscous semolina, or cook a tajine in true Moroccan fashion.
