Cooking from the heart........

Moroccan marvelous! Delicious rich hearty food, perfect for Autumn dining.  Tagines (stews) of fish, lamb or goat, humongous legumes, cous cous and traditional bastilla (layered pie) all beautifully balanced. Food for sharing, a trusty trio of epicureans enriching the experience (plus the unborn child already expanding her culinary repertoire!).

We couldn't manage dessert but the sweet Moroccan mint tea was fabulous. As we were leaving the Chef , wandered past, we chatted about the beautiful flavours of the meal - he shared his passion with a story of a simple tomato dish his mother prepared, 'I cook from the heart' he concluded. Pierre Khodja's food resonates with love.
