Underwhelming Couscous — expected more

I was looking forward to Couscous here based on the reputation. The reality was disappointing. The boldly spiced and warming character that makes this dish special was muted — either from shortcuts with tabil coriander spice blend or from scaling up production at the expense of quality.

Tunisian cuisine is the spiciest of the Maghreb cuisines thanks to the importance of harissa. The a seaside fish restaurant setting I was hoping for wasn't quite there either. boukha fig spirit was available but not suggested appropriately. I've had much better versions elsewhere. Two stars because the dish concept is sound; the execution let it down.
