Munch of the Week
Medina Moroccan Cuisine
“Authentic Moroccan takeaway based in Bethnal Green and serving the majority of the central and east London areas. Fun fact: I actually met the owner in the back of an Uber and he was telling me how there were virtually no Moroccan cuisine options on our favourite delivery apps. Small menu and insanely good prices. I'd recommend the zaalouk and Moroccan wings in particular.” - Sicaria
Location: Bethnal Green
