Sandwich Stands

Take your pick of any one of the stands
lining Pl el-Hedim, and sit at the canopied tables to watch the scene as you eat. There are
larger meals like tajines, but the sandwiches are usually quick and excellent, while a few
places nearer the medina walls do a good line in sardines.

attention.
