Casablanca
I heard from a few locals that Casablanca is a good restaurant, and so I had to go try it. I ordered the meatball tajine, which is the traditional terracotta dish. I also made the choice for the olive rice rather than a sweet rice, which turned out to be an excellent complement for the meatballs.
I was given a small sample of a dal like dish before the tajine arrived and it signalled that the flavors would be good. They were.
The sauce for the meatballs was a lovely mix including tomato, onions and savory herbs. The meatballs were my favorite texture with a good meat and mellow spice blend. I mixed in the rice to sop up all the sauce and I have to admit that I scarfed.
Wonderful home made whole wheat bread was also a good accompaniment.

Olive rice? That sounds like a great accompaniment to those tasty looking meatballs.
It IS - I've eaten there a second time now and the different dishes fit together beautifully as meals.
