Le Grand Café de la Poste
Le Grand Café de la Poste
Le Grand Café de la Poste (corner of Bd. El Mansour Eddahbi and Av. Imam Malik, Ville Nouvelle, Marrakech) — a 20th-century update of 1920s style, this restaurant combines the sophistication of colonial era Morocco with contemporary trends. The décor is decidedly retro, with an emphasis on Art Deco styling and a relaxed ambience which conjures memories of the faded Francophone past.
The food is similarly multifaceted, combining French techniques with Moroccan flavors to great effect, and bringing out the best in both traditions. The tender roast beef comes highly recommended, as do the grilled sardines and foie de veau persillé. The large terrace is often packed with pre party cocktail drinkers in the late afternoon and has welcomed many a famous face to its luxurious surroundings.
