The 12 Best Restaurants in Casablanca, Morocco | Eater

"The French constructed much of the Habous neighborhood during the protectorate to provide additional housing for merchants. Those homes still exist today, but the area has largely become a shopping district for Moroccan goods. Slightly hidden among the shops, you’ll find this classic patisserie, which has specialized in Moroccan pastries since 1930. There are dozens of varieties of Moroccan treats such as ka’ab gazelle (a thin pastry filled with almond paste), fekkas (Moroccan biscotti), and ghriba (crumbly, shortbread cookies). The sweets are available for walk-ins, but order ahead to procure savory highlights like pastillas (meat pies) and briouats (meat or cheese-stuffed pastry triangles). Snack as you wander the mix of French and Moroccan architecture, or head to the grounds at the nearby Moulay Yacoub Mosque or Parc Murdoch a few streets away. Takeaway only.

Our Moroccan tour leader brought us here. She strongly recommended their pastries. They have different types of pastries marked with different prices (per kilo grams). They gave us box(es) to pick the cookies. We can put different types into the same box. But we are puzzled at which price they would charged us. I think we ended up paying more 😅 Looking back, we should have packed the same valued cookies in the same box. The lemon chocolate cookies are very nice 😋 Actually the cookies are pretty pricey. Luckily cookies taste 👍

Nearby, we strolled less than a minute to Patisserie Bennis Habous. Operating since 1930, Patisserie Bennis Habous is close to a 100 years old and is now being run by the 4th generation. During this visit, we also met the 4th generation boss, a handsome young man who spoke fluent french. Hopefully, with new blood and new minds, he can eventually bring the patisserie to greater heights – or even “atas-fy” it to become like Bacha Coffee. Inside, you’ll find a space with high ceilings which sells vacuum-sealed roast chicken and some savoury items. Walking further in, you’ll come to the patisserie where all the sweets are layed out on the table. We saw prices of 200MAD/kg to 240MAD/kg for sweets and 100MAD/kg to 120MAD/kg for cookies. Sweets probably needed more ingredients and skill to make. Some ladies would take a sample themselves and taste it even though there were signs that indicate pictorially, not to use your hands to take the sweets...

One of the most delicious Moroccan cakes is made in here. The place looks classy and pure. However, the price is a bit higher.
