"Head chef and owner Assia Kabous stands out in the culinary scene of Morocco, not only as a woman in a largely male industry but also for her ability to transport intimate Moroccan home cooking to a refined setting. While you can find the typical Moroccan tagines, the kitchen also serves dishes that rarely grace restaurant menus, like tride (chicken and lentils on a bed of springy, layered msemmen bread), chaariya medfouna (spiced chicken buried in steamed vermicelli noodles), and djaj m’qualli (roasted chicken refried for an extra-crisp surface).
