Description...

well this place certainly knows what it has to offer: beautiful food, ambiance and dinner entertainment. that said, it may be a money-laundering front, or at least that's the comment we made (half-joking) as we left. hookah: it was fine/good, but there weren't many flavor options. don't come here if you just want hookah--if you eat first, however, it's lovely and fitting.

Why I enjoyed this activity...

1) the orange-water handwashing before the meal 2) the mint tea and pastry for dessert 3) the absense of waitstaff for most of the meal--yes, there are 20-30 minutes between courses, but rushing a dinner like this is pointless 4) the full dinner--although undeniably expensive--was a solid introduction to morroccan food (see the menu online) 5) the entertainment--on thursday, a belly dancer 6) the possibility that the place was a front of course
