My first visit to Meimo (pronounced Meemoe) and it certainly won't be my last. I had the Meimo Couscous (that's the one with everything - spicy lamb merguez sausages, succulent chicken breast and steamed vegetables). The plate was laden with plenty of fluffy couscous and all of the above. On the side is a small dish with a wonderful broth with chickpeas and peas. Finally, there is an even smaller dish of a chilli paste. Add as much of this paste as you wish to the broth, stir it up and pour it over the couscous. Finally, give the couscous a gentle stir to help it soak up the broth and you're good to go. Delicious. ๐๐๐
My wife had the equally delicious chicken tagine. Served in a traditional tagine dish with lid, the slow cooked chicken came with wonderful prunes and apricots all served with an accompanying dish of couscous. If I hadn't been so full with my own choice, I'd have happily eaten this too.
I washed my meal down with Casablanca beer, all the way from Morocco, whilst my wife preferred a French white from the excellent wine list.
The service throughout was never less than excellent and prices very reasonable (even before Rishi's help with the bill). This restaurant was obviously very popular with families, there were a number who came in with young children, all of whom were delightfully well...

ย ย ย Read moreStepping into this Moroccan gem feels like being transported to a vibrant, aromatic bazaar. The highlight of our culinary journey was undoubtedly the chicken and lamb shank tagine. Each bite was a revelation of flavors so profound. It was our best tagine ever. The meat, tender and succulent, fell off the bone, melding perfectly with the rich, spiced sauce that's clearly been simmering to perfection. The dessert options were portioned right and refreshing. Mint tea was a great way to end our meal.
The service matched the excellence of the food. The staff were not just great; they were exceptional. Attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable without being pretentious, they navigated the evening with a grace that only added to the overall experience.
