Original Tagines

Another one of my local places. I have hesitated to visit this place since it looks like a proper tourist trap from the outside. A big, tacky sign and a slightly worn-down exterior in general. I went there recently and apart from the fact that they seemed to have a bit of a leakage from the ceiling (!), it was alright. The place is small and felt very much like a “couples” only restaurant with dimmed lighting and a pleasant atmosphere. The food is north-african/Turkish, and I quite liked it. We tried the lemon chicken which was delicious, as well as the many starters we had. The owners informed us that they thrive of very loyal and local customers, and I have no problems in seeing why. Especially if they have a take-away service (which I didn't ask about).

This place could do with an extreme make-over, but as a local, it's definitely worth going to. Especially if you're into this type of food.
