FЀS EL BALI
The largest of the two medinas (walled city sections) in Fès, Fès el Bali - we were told - is best explored, at first, with a local guide,who will ensure that you get used to the lack of road signs and the small, winding alleyways before leaving you to your own devices. After being very disappointed with the guide we'd been recommended (a different story altogether...) we opted to make our own way around the medina.
If you've never been to Africa, as I hadn't, pre-Fès, not even the guide books can prepare you for what you'll encounter on your first day. We were staying just outside the medina, so after walking through wide, relatively quiet streets to the Bab Bou Jeloud (the western gate into the city ...

THINGS YOU WILL NEED TO HIRE A CAR
----------------------------------------------------------
You will usually have to be over 21 years old to hire a car on the Canary Islands. Some companies will expect you top have a clean license.

Advantages: Great food, very nice waitresses, quiet Disadvantages: pricing structure, loud music
The Medina or "Med" as is plastered on the outside in neon lights is a quaint Morrocan restaurant on the Prince Of Wales Road in Norwich.
Every six or so months we have an 'old skool' night in which we try to get good food, good conversation (if you can call good conversation talking about partners, mortgages, work and life - a far cry from our college days - but I suppose we all have to grow up at some point!!) and a few drinks.
We try and go somewhere different each time. Last Friday was my turn to organise the meal. I walk past the "Med" every day and I have always been intrigued. I love a good steak so I thought a grill restaurant would probably be a good option.
When trying to book the restaurant I thought I would use the net to get the number. Confusion - I could not find the "Med" any where. I walked past it everyday yet ...
