Restaurant Bou Makhlouf

Tunisia


This good-value cheapie with chummy service is very popular for lunch. The menu is in Arabic only, but someone on staff can work with you through the translations. The owner even opens his doors to travellers to try local home-cooked specialities, but you'll need to ask a few days in advance.
