01
Morning
The harira starts in the morning. The market decides the rest, and the menu is twelve dishes because twelve is what the kitchen can do properly in a day.
02
Afternoon
Bread comes out of the clay oven in the afternoon. Four floors up, the medina keeps working below and the roof gets ready.
03
Evening
At dusk the lanterns are lit and the tables fill. Lunch is quiet. Dinner, around eight, is the reason for the roof.
Twelve tables, one oven, the Koutoubia in view.

The oven
Bread out of the clay oven, every afternoon
One domed oven in the wall, wood-fired, and it never cools before night. Everything flat leaves through its mouth.
