31. December 2014: Le Bar Italien – La Mamounia
If you stay in a place like Marrakesh, you have to see the hotels which were part of history making – I think. So I decided to pay the “La Mamounia” a visit, respectively the “Le Bar Italien” within the La Mamounia hotel. It is rather difficult to get in as you have to be […]
31. December 2014: Café Les Négociants
The “Café Les Négociants” is probably not a place I would have walked in if I was not forced to wait for the tourist bus and the place happened to be right next to it. But I did and I was surprised as I expected absolutely nothing. However, I was wrong. I went for the […]
31. December 2014: Café Bousafsaf
If you go to visit the “Jardin de Majorelle”, you should definitely take a small break at the Café Bousafsaf as the place is absolutely cozy and nice and you get the enjoy your “thé à la menthe” (30 MAD) in a very nice atmosphere. Well, if you are lucky you also get to take […]
30. December 2014: Restaurant Maison MK
If you do not have a guide, it might help to go and check where the Maison MK is during daylight as it is pretty secluded and you have to walk through narrow little streets to find it. Once you’ve done that, and you arrive you have to ring the bell so the door opens. […]
30. December 2014: Café Restaurant Chez Zaza
The Café Restaurant Chez Zaza is a bit tricky to find – as the entrance is tiny and the stairs are quite steep and it does not look to trusthworthy but once you make it to the roof top it is pretty cool up there. You should also try the “Moroccan pastries” (25 MAD) with […]
30. December 2014: Restaurant Venezia @ Hotel Islane
While it proofed more and more difficult to find a place just like that if you did not book anything in advance – especially during lunch time – the Restaurant Venezia definitely looked promising as it is basically a roof top terrace where you get to look at the biggest minarette in Marrakesh. Unfortunately, the […]
30. December 2014: Restaurant Al Seguia @ Le Méridien N’Fis
Luckily, the breakfast at the Al Seguia Restaurant in the Le Méridien N’Fis is definitely better than the dinner in the El Menzeh! With 200 MAD per person for breakfast, the price is also pretty decent. The selection ranges from fresh fruit … … to cereals … … scrambled eggs and vegetables … … cold […]
29. December 2014: Restaurant El Menzeh @ Le Méridien N’Fis
Given it was the first night in Marrakesh, I decided to have dinner in the hotel (260 MAD per person for the buffet). And frankly, this was really a bad decision. The buffet looks quite okay at first but already when you peak into the food containers you get the message pretty soon that this […]
