Themed cafés and cuisines have the ability to transport us to faraway places. As we wait for leisure travel to resume, here’s a new joint that could momentarily take us to Morocco.
Located in Siglap, La Fez Café & Bakery is a Moroccan-inspired restaurant with horseshoe arches, rose pink interiors, and Mediterranean dishes.
Travel-starved Singaporeans eager for a change of scenery now have a new destination for their meals.
La Fez Café & Bakery is inspired by the Moroccan city of Marrakesh — otherwise known as the ‘Rose City’.
You’ll find the Arabic decorations even before stepping inside the café with the horseshoe arch windows lining the eatery’s exterior.
According to Muslim beliefs, the horseshoe arch is said to offer good fortune and protection.
Similar to Marrakesh’s rose-tinted buildings, the central bar is painted salmon pink and decorated with eye-catching golden shelves.
Whether you choose to take a seat in their rattan chairs or comfy benches, you’ll find ample space for catching up with your squad amid the hustle and bustle of your busy lives.
Visitors who adore souvenirs can even find Marrakesh prayer mats and other authentic trinkets on their built-in shelves.
True to its theme, the bathroom also has ceramic sinks, indoor plants, as well as horseshoe-shaped mirrors that are similar to establishments in Morocco.
Espresso fans in search of a dose of caffeine can opt for their spellbinding Nous Nous which is a half-espresso and half-milk beverage.

If you can’t make up your mind, go for the Majorelle Shakshuka with Feta Cheese, which the waiter will bring to you in a traditional tagine.
Just from its appearance, we can tell foodies will go gaga over the poached eggs with spiced tomato and pepper sauce.
