The jewel in the crown of Casablanca's Gauthier district, Bistrot Chic has a brasserie atmosphere. Chef Ramzi El Bouab, who trained with Grégoire Ferrandi in Paris and has worked with French greats such as Joel Robuchon, delights the palate with subtle, refined dishes. The tantalizing menu includes red tuna tartare, entrecote, gratin dauphinois, Robuchon-style beef cheek, sea bream a la plancha, beurre blanc vegetables, and risotto with paella-style seafood or linguine. For dessert: profiteroles or sablé Breton with pistachio and raspberry cream. The wine bar on the second floor features live music. Not to be missed in Casablanca.
