Finding the best Mechouia Salad in the city — a personal search

I spent three months trying every version of Mechouia Salad I could find locally. The variation in quality is extraordinary. The best version handled olive oil with genuine knowledge and the boldly spiced and warming result was noticeably superior.

Tunisian cuisine is the spiciest of the Maghreb cuisines thanks to the importance of harissa. The winning restaurant had the right a market food stall feel — unpretentious and focused on the food. Celtia beer was suggested correctly. Worth the search. When Mechouia Salad is made properly it's a completely different experience.
