Le Marrakech
Dijon, France
The read// why locals go
Le Marrakech is an independent Moroccan kitchen on Rue Monge, a few streets from Place Émile Zola in central Dijon. The card keeps to the classics the kitchen is built on — couscous in its several forms, tajines left to their slow work, and meat from the grill — the sort of cooking that rewards a recipe repeated rather than reinvented each season. It is a single address with no branches elsewhere, run as a proper sit-down dining room; a few tables outside catch the afternoon, and orders can also be taken away. For anyone worn down by the bistro circuit of the old centre, it is a welcome change of register.
