"Look no further than Amandine for some of the best pastries in Marrakech. The patisserie sells both French and Moroccan pastries and cookies, and there’s a full drink menu if you’d like to sit and stay awhile. Order a plate of mixed Moroccan cookies, particularly the sweet briouat (fried, honey-soaked phyllo pastry stuffed with almond flour, orange blossom water, and sugar), and pair it with a French pastry such as the religieuse a choux filled with caramel cream and topped with more caramel drizzle. The cafe also offers to-go boxes, which make the perfect souvenir or gift. [$]" - Amanda Ponzio-Mouttaki
