Tanjia next to sushi
Marrakech tanjia, beef tajine with prunes and pastilla, alongside sushi and saffron cocktails.
Le Grand Bazar occupies a century-old building on Place Jemaa El-Fna, Marrakech's beating heart. Once a hotel, it is now a cabinet of curiosities: hundreds of antique objects sourced from the city's souks fill the dining room, arranged around a bar and a small stage where musicians, singers and a magician perform every evening. Upstairs, a 600 m² rooftop of greenery and lantern light opens onto the Koutoubia minaret, the medina and, in winter, the snow on the Atlas. The kitchen runs Moroccan tradition alongside international plates: tanjia and beef tajine with prunes next to sushi, ribeye and wood-fired pizza, with house cocktails built on saffron and hibiscus.
