Tajine wa Tanjia
MOROCCAN
Tajine wa Tanjia ("tagine and tanjia") is a small Moroccan restaurant on Rue Baghdad that takes both of its namesake dishes seriously. Tanjia — the clay-urn stew of Marrakech, slow-cooked overnight in hammam embers — is rare in Rabat restaurants, and this kitchen does it properly on order. Tagines and a Friday seven-vegetable couscous round out the menu, along with several specifically Rbati dishes. The dining room is a traditional-feel courtyard with carved plaster and banquettes. No alcohol, cash welcome, mid-range prices.
