Moroccan food has arrived in Cudahy. The cuisine includes a few French influences, and is very easy to like. Jaffar's menu is small and the kitchen very slow, but patience will be rewarded with an interesting meal. Many Middle Eastern restaurants would serve this generous portion as an entree. And the escargot are few and far between.
Meals begin with a basket of ordinary bread topped with sesame seeds.
Still, it tastes great with the accompanying broiled eggplant puree. Entrees include soup and a nice salad made of cucumber, tomato and onion. The soups look elegant served in glass bowls. Enjoy the soup, however, as the entrees require a wait. The flavor is very authentic, even though the olives are the mundane pimento-stuffed Spanish variety and not Moroccan.
