Le Jasmine

“Exceptional experience I liked it so much, that I went here two days in a row, which I rarely ever do. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and has a distinct upscale atmosphere thats naturally elegant without being overly cliché or giving the impression of trying to hard. The food was excellent I would give it 15/20 points. On my first visit I had chicken-almond pastillas and the lamb shank couscous. The pastillas had a perfect combination of sweet and savoury with a crispy outside and a firm meaty interior. The coucous and the vegetables were light, fluffy and fragrant. The three sauces all complemented the taste delightfully in very different ways. The lamb shank was definitely the cherry on top without taking too much attention from the rest. The meat was perfectly braised to be tender and juicy. The knife was almost unnecessary. On my second visit I had the monkfish and prawn tajine. As a contrast to the couscous, this dish was a perfect balance of bold and delicate. Both the fish and prawns were cooked perfectly, preserving their distinct tender yet firm textures. The accompanying sauce was full of fruity sourness and umami from the tomatoes and preserved lemons. The herbs, aromatics and spices gave it the signature morrocan taste. Lastly the service was attentive but discreet, blending into the elegant atmosphere. A somewhat hidden gem that I can fully recommend.”
