Round 2 of Winterlicious festivities took us to 93 Harbord, a delightful Moroccan restaurant in the Annex. On the $15 lunch menu was lots of good stuff.
For appetizers, Ian really liked the lentil soup and my beetroot cumin salad was decent with apples and pomegranate seeds on there too. The charred soft pita was fantastic and even I (a dedicated olive disliker), didn't mind the olive dip that came with the pita.
After some rather tough decisions on the main course, I went with the fish tagine in saffron sauce with steamed couscous. This was a rather hearty plate of three kinds of fish in a delicious creamy yellow sauce. The couscous had some good stuff in there - nuts & raisins and the like.
Ian's spiced kofta kababs with rice, pita and rosee tahini sauce was also fantastic although somewhat mysterious. The first waitress I asked said they were lamb but when the other guy brought out the plate, he said beef. Regardless, a pretty decent ground mystery meat kabab!
Desserts were surprisingly good - Moroccan baklawa with shortbread and a fig and for Ian walnut and pear stuffed phyllo with some chocolate sauce.
All in all a good Winterlicious lunch on the cheap! This was definitely one place that we will frequent again.
