mind you, it's a bit odd having a 360 degree view of yourself on the loo, but i just closed my eyes, lol...

we went for a couple in the new champagne bar first...great view, but it was quiet, i guess it will get busier as people hear about it...

from the title alone I know this was the one you had been too... I am saving up the fils to go soon (only 180,000 fils to save!). Looks great and less reserved than Verre...

i can't see any enjoyment in eating in a nice place having in mind that i will spend so much money !!!!!

i am not a rich man ... even if i am a very rich one !!! why would i pay so much money for food that i can have with the same quality and far better price

your housemaid maybe, but most people pay about 1400 dhs a month these days.
