“Most Uniquely Decorated Restaurant EVER!” – Elizir, Essaouira, Morocco

Walking into Elizir is like walking into the apartment of an eccentric collector; and to a certain extent you have. Owner and chef, Abdellatif Rharbaoui has decorated (some may say cluttered) his restaurant with art and nik-naks as objects d’art on every surface and in every corner.
 
The food was incredible, with the Squid-Ink Rissotto being my personal favourite. Abdellatif also introduced my girlfriend and I to a Moroccan red wine that was absolutely fantastic. If production levels increase, the Atlas Mountains could give the Andes a run for their money as the next new world IT terroir.

“Chillin’ On The Flip-Side” – Roof-top patio overlooking the Atlantic at the Madada Mogador Hotel, Essaouira, Morocco

After an 8 hours drive across the Moroccan desert – through
road-construction dust-storms in a car without air conditioning, my girlfriend and I finally arrived in Essaouira (ESSA-we’re-ah) to the cooling breeze of the Atlantic. We were welcomed by the friendly staff of the Madada Mogador with a pot of mint tea and a seat on their rooftop patio.
