"A lovely, peaceful spot right in the city center. You can count on it being open in the morning when others are closed. I recommend trying the mint tea."

"I went to this place as it offers typical Tunisian Fricassé as well as homemade Citronnade. The citronnade was super delicious , as if my mother was the one who prepared it. The fricassé was unfortunately already fried and ready and was warmed in the microwave , even though we have asked to get a freshly fried Fricassé. The Fricassé costs 2 Euros and the citronnade costs 2.5€. I will definitely come back to try other meals ."

"Didn’t get a photo of the beignet because I ate it too fast. It was possibly the best thing I’ve eaten in my life. Crispy, fluffy, fresh, the size of my face.. I’ve just got the bill… it was €2!! Wait… I’m going back.. I’ll get one to takeaway and take a picture so I can remember it forever."

"We were passing by and were drawn in by the tasting looking sweets in the front window. Decided to take a selection of 4 different sweets but despite their very different appearance, all had a very similar, if not the same flavour. This is in the streets of the old town and it was very popular, but just didn't really hit the mark for us. There was a very different and distinct flavour that I have not experienced before with these type of sweets."
