Rick's Cafe


For those of you who have actually seen the movie Casablanca, here's a pic for you. I haven't seen it yet, but apparently this place called Rick's Cafe is pretty important in it. :) The entire movie was filmed outside of Morocco, so there wasn't an actual Rick's Cafe here until a few years ago. An American woman decided to open a restaurant in tribute to the cafe in the movie, so now we actually have a Rick's Cafe in Casablanca. My mum and I went to celebrate her birthday when she was visiting during Ramadan. Luckily, it's such a tourist spot that we were able to have a bottle of wine and lunch (eating and drinking alcohol during the day - wow!). We were also able to take this pic.

I finally watched "Casablanca" last year. It's good to know there is a "real" Rick's Cafe after all those years.
