Le Petit Cornichon

"Stylish Bistro Dining in the Heart of Gueliz With its leafy side streets, must-browse boutiques, and burgeoning food scene, Gueliz is quickly resembling pockets of Paris , particularly as more and more bistro-inspired places open their doors. Le Petit Cornichon is like a breath of spring with its splashy Majorelle blue and daffodil yellow color palette, floor-to-ceiling windows that look out onto the street, and animated atmosphere. Toward the end of the week, you’ll find half of Marrakech here indulging in a laid-back lunch before heading down to the beach at Essaouira for the weekend, but it’s a lovely place for a prix fixe lunch any old time and a good value to boot: two courses for $17, three for $21. Settle in to peruse an excellent wine list before tucking into dishes such assea bass ceviche with grapefruit and pink peppercorns, tarragon chicken, and a sliver of wickedly rich chocolate tart."

"Gueliz was created during the French protectorate in Morocco as a home for the international community outside of the medina. Today it’s filled with art galleries, boutiques, and restaurants like this French bistro. Le Petit Cornichon offers a rotating set menu, posting updates weekly to its Instagram account. Options usually include two or three starters, mains, and desserts, but guests can also order a la carte. Do note the restaurant allows smoking inside, which can be a major put-off for some diners.
