La Kahena
Among Marseille’s many Tunisian restaurants, this eatery stands out from the crowd. Named for a 6th-century-bc Tunisian princess, La Kahena’s specialty is couscous: Among the 10 varieties are versions with lamb, merguez spicy sausages, and cod. Other Tunisian classics such as mechoua salad (spicy grilled vegetables), tajines, and crispy brick pastry stuffed with shrimp are also served up in the ornate blue-tiled dining room. A solid budget choice.
