Marrekech Nights for Lunch

The Marrekech Nights has moved from it’s cozy local (across from the McDonalds in Itaewon). It is now in the space that was inhabited by New Delhi. The upgrade is much appreciated. The food is great and bountiful. My friend Ed and I like to go there for lunch and for 5,000 won you have a choice of falafel, or chicken or beef kebab. Most places would just give you the sandwich and be done with it, but at Marrekech Nights you get a salad dish, french fries, and a slightly spicy, marinated, eggplant dish. Besides being plentiful (and cheap), the food is good. I highly recommend you check it out!

Oh, and by the way, the eggplant dish on panel 3 with the bread was an extra order of eggplant that Ed and I had. It was 4 or 5 thousand won.
