Chefchaouen

Granada
Mains ~ 25 Dh
2 blocks up from the main square

Great fish tajine, great couscous.

The local specialty is baissara, but you'll also find the usual staples such as tajine vegetable stew with goat or sheep, harira tomato soup, kofte meatballs and tagras fish. The Salada Marroqui is a salad of cucumber and tomatoes, while salada variada includes eggs. The region is also well known for olives and olive oil, and for goat cheese, which is sold on display in various shops.

If eating in the medina, avoid restaurants on the Kasbah square plaza Uta el Hamman offering tourist menus for 45 dh drinks not included: they will just serve you very low-quality kofte and harira, for a more than average price.

Chez Fuad
opposite Granada

Also do a great fish tajine, and a shrimp tajine, salad and cous-cous are also very good. Great relation quality/price.

Assadaa
lunch for 50Dh, all included
from Bab el-Ain, take straight up and then left

This little restaurant occupies both sides of the street, with tables on the road, under a tree, and on a roof terrace. Nice tajine and great cheese salad

For a sandwich break, head for the local sandwich dealer on the left of Bab el-Ain gate. Chicken, beef or shrimps sandwiches, with olives, salad and sauces, for 25Dh
