I ordered it with Casablanca beer and the complex with dried fruit and spice elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. medjool dates in particular became more prominent in a good way.

What sets Tagine apart is the handling of preserved lemon. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the richly perfumed result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience. hospitality rituals including mint tea service are integr…

I'm sceptical of any restaurant claiming to do Tagine well, having been disappointed often enough. This one delivered. The richly perfumed base was authentic and the use of preserved lemon showed real knowledge. Moroccan cuisine draws from Berber, Arab, Andalusian, and French influences. The atmosp…

I ate Tagine at three different restaurants in the same week to compare. The results were illuminating. The use of ras el hanout varied significantly — only one got it right.
