Lunch today was simple… Mussels Tagine.
We had a new-to-us server, Latifa, she’s been in America for over 3.5 years and came over to Spice Road Table from Restaurant Marrakesh. She was quite attentive and we had a lovely visit to Spice Road Table.
I ordered a glass of Marques de Caceres Santinella (a favorite white of mine that I discovered during 2013 Epcot Food & Wine Festival). Nick had an Estrella Damm.
We’re really enjoying the mussels tagine, there were 22 in our bowl today
the garlic was abundant and the lemon confit was very noticeable (we found a chunk of preserved lemon, yum!)
these are really delightful!
The preserved lemon was excellent with the Santinella
the mussels are also a good value at $10
ahhh, more preserved lemon!
Latifa had a few menu suggestions that we hope to try in the future…
- The lamb slider can be ordered medium or medium rare without the bun
- To make the stuffed grape leaves tastier – ask for extra capers, raisins and nutmeg
