This Moroccan BYOB is conveniently located next door to a liquor store where we picked up our booze. My party and I were greeted by a warm smiling young lady who ushered us to our Moroccan bazaar section. The place s decor is authentic with gold and red tapestries, brass top tables, Moroccan lamps dimmed for the mood and berber carpets. we could smell the aroma of couscous and kabobs as our server explained a seven course meal we were to feast on. The birthday girl is vegetarian and we were concerned. NO worries! said our server and started by the hand washing ceremony.\r
Rose blossomed water prepared our hands and we began with an a rray of salads centered by Humus, my favorite. Perhaps my favorite dish was the appetizer, Bastila or bastilla, not sure of the pronunciation; it was an amazing combination of sweet and savory. The coursed kept coming as we drank and danced the night away with a mesmorising Belly dancer, who made sure the birthday girl danced over and over again. I have been here before but i must say there have been some positive changes in everything including the food which stood out even more this time around. The chicken tagine was soooo yummy served with olives and pita. the lamb kabobs were to die for, and the home made baklava concluded a culinary experience i am to cherish for a long time.\r
