“Stained-glass chandeliers bathe diners in a warm, dim glow, all while intricate tile mosaics evoke timeless majesty.”
On September 16, 1984, the Restaurant el Marrakesh opened in the Morocco Pavilion in Epcot’s World Showcase. This table service restaurant gives guests a taste of Moroccan cuisine, including Chicken Bastilla, Couscous M’Rouzia Fassi, and the Marrakesh Delight, which is a fruit salad topped with mint ice cream, toasted almonds, and orange blossom water.
