The restaurant Marrakech is located on 66 King William Rd, just a few minute south of Adelaide. The restaurant was simply furnished, functional and not too cramped. There is a lounge area to enjoy your Moroccan mint teas as well as outdoor dining options but only if two of you are dining.
We had pastilla twice on our holidays, we loved it so much that we tested the one they have at this establishment. Pastilla is a pigeon pie, we had the chicken version this time but the owner explained that we could have pigeon if ordered ahead of time.
The pastilla was more than reasonable, it was lacking some cinnamon and honey but very close to what you get thousands of miles away. The other shared entree was a prawn salad which was equally enjoyable, with mild spices that tasted like a little piece of Morocco.
The mains we enjoyed were a lamb tagine and the royal couscous. The lamb tagine came in boneless pieces which I thought took away a bit of flavour from the sauce. I do enjoy marrow goodness.........however the prunes and nuts also found in the dish added balance and texture to the meaty dish. The royal couscous came with a soup like sauce which I am guessing is to compensate for the dryness of the couscous due to the dry conditions in Adelaide. The kebabs and sausages that accompany it were well marinated with the exception of the chicken kebab. Chicken breasts have never been one of my preferred cuts of meat.
The mint tea at the end of the meal was a nice way to finish the evening. The servings were quite large and we went without dessert. However the menu was extensive and the meal was satisfying enough for us to come back to try other dishes. For $60 per head which included a bottle of wine, it was above average in terms of value and the fussy gorilla approves.
