Photographer Marc Antoine, creator of the MarrakChef trophy, and celebrity Chef Myriam Ettahri, have joined their talents to create this jazz restaurant in Marrakech. Le Bistro Arabe combines the movie-like setting of Riad Monceau, a masterpiece of Andalusian architecture, and a revisited Moroccan cuisine tinged with refinement from the greatest French cuisine. Jazz concerts bringing together the best Moroccan musicians provide a very “Cotton Club” atmosphere to the venue. Sometimes, a special guest – from simple enthusiast to major jazz star – joins the band for an improvised set. In any case the atmosphere is warm, festive, and it is not unusual to push the tables aside at the end of the night to create an impromptu dance floor.
Le Bistro Arabe is an elegant and artistic restaurant located inside the Villa des Orangers, one of the most prestigious luxury riads in Marrakech. The restaurant offers a sophisticated “Oriental Jazz” atmosphere, where the dark wood interiors and warm candlelight create an incredibly romantic setting. The menu is a creative fusion of Moroccan spices and French culinary techniques, resulting in dishes that are both beautiful and delicious. It is the perfect spot for diners who want to enjoy a high-end, quiet meal in a space that feels like a private club. The service is professional and discreet, making it ideal for a special night out.
