My wife and I enjoyed the food during our trip to Morocco, so most of our group of six in our private room in Shalel ordered Moroccan appetizers and entrees. The food was excellent, taste and presentation, and good tangine is so aromatic. The desserts were wonderful, too. For people who don't know, some of the items can be spicy, if you're looking for that (or looking to avoid that), you should ask.
