The 22 Best Restaurants in Marrakech, Morocco | Eater

"Al Fassia, helmed by Saïda Chaab and her family, has been run entirely by women since it opened in 1987, as much a rarity then as it is now. For nearly as long, the restaurant has been hailed as the place to eat in the city. Start with the pastilla, a baked phyllo pie stuffed with chicken or pigeon meat, onions slow-cooked with creamy eggs, almonds, and powdered sugar. Then dig into one of the more unusual tagines, like chicken with caramelized pumpkin or beef with almonds, shallots, and rice. Al Fassia has a location in Agdal, but the one in Gueliz boasts a better ambience and more consistent quality from the kitchen. [$$$]" - Amanda Ponzio-Mouttaki
