Artisan & Authenticity Award

Establishments and cooks highlighting the culinary heritage of their region or country through their know-how, their products and short circuits.

Dar el Jeld is a culinary gem hidden in the historic old town of Tunis. Housed in an unassuming building, this elegant restaurant has a traditional old-world feel, and a hearty welcome as soon as you walk through the heavy wooden doors. The restaurant is known for its heritage dishes, prepared from regional produce with Dar El Jeld’s more than three decades of experience and expertise. Among the most popular specialties are couscous, tagine, and brik, pies made with very fine, filo-like pastry. There is also a wide selection of Tunisian wines to complement the food. Dar el Jeld is also an elegant hotel with a rooftop bar - an unmissable stop on any trip to Tunis.
