Marrakesh


This upmarket concept store is a sign of the times on gentrifying Riad Zitoun El Kedim. Its walls are lined with shelves of beautifully packaged saffron, amlou (argan-nut butter), local jams and essential oils, artfully arranged beside black-and-white KAM Design ceramic teapots, bowls and mugs. Contemplate your purchases at the communal table with a cup of Marrakesh's Bloom coffee, brewed behind the counter.
