Sahbi Sahbi opened its doors after the success of Grand Café de la Poste and Bô & Zin, one of the city's most historic restaurants.
Its name, which means "soul mates" and "friendship" in Darija, perfectly captures this meeting place, which dedicated to traditional Moroccan cuisine.
In Morocco, the kitchen is generally a secret place, dominated mainly by women, the "dadas", who hand down recipes from generation to generation. Behind and in front of the stoves, a team led by women devotes itself to this valuable Moroccan gastronomy.
This is the essence of Sahbi Sahbi, even if the kitchen here is not secret, but instead open to guests who can find out how the specialties, such as the Friday couscous, are prepared.
