Sahara Restaurant

I don't know why this place isn't packed every night The selfish me is kind of happy about that (no lines or reservations to deal with), but it's not right. The food here is really, really good and it deserves to be gushed over and talked about and eaten by snobby foodies all over town every night of the week. It's a touch pricier than the other Moroccan cafes nearby, but definitely worth it. The owners are a husband and wife team, I believe, and he is normally the one who greets you and takes your order. He is happy to make suggestions and talk through your likes and dislikes to find you something you'd enjoy. And enjoyed I did. For a starter I had the goats cheese B'Stella filo pastry with almond mix and a honey/mustard dressing. For a main I had the Tagine d'Essouera which is Monk Fish cooked with Mussels and Prawns in seven Spices. I'd highly recommend both. For dessert I had the Moroccan-style cheesecake I can't really put it into words, but if you have room, just make sure you order it. It was one of the best I've ever eaten.
