The Review: Blue Plate Oysterette
Know something we don't?
If you've had the pleasure of dining at one of L.A.'s theatrical Moroccan restaurants (e.g. Dar Maghreb, Koutoubia, Marrakesh), you'll know pretty much what to expect at this, the city's best known Tunisian eatery. And like those lavish Moroccan haunts, Moun of Tunis provides a wonderfully exotic dining experience for folks a bit weary of the standard trattoria or bistro fare.
Especially well suited for larger parties, Moun of Tunis offers everything from a relatively simple four-course couscous dinner to an extravagant seven-course feast including salads, b'steeya, honey lamb, lemon chicken and brik, Tunisia's signature dish (crêpes stuffed with eggs and other ingredients). Be forewarned, as the Tunisians have a greater penchant for harisa, the super-hot chile paste used as a condiment for couscous. More moderately priced than the aforementioned establishments, Moun of Tunis offers a memorable dining adventure that doesn't blow the budget.
