Chicho-Moroccan Sandwiches

Inspired by a quick fix from a Moroccan mother trying to feed her hungry children on a Friday afternoon, these meatball sandwiches are divine. Chicho serves four varieties of their saucy meatballs: their signature beef, lamb, chicken and fish, and they’re all sizzling hot, straight from the pot in which they were simmered. Pick which ones you desire, and they’ll be stuffed into the downy, warmed ‘frena’ bread that is made just for the eatery from an old family recipe, together with your choice of salads and cold sauces. The recipes are grandma’s and the sauces have a modern gourmet twist. Wash it down with the sweetly satisfying vintage sodas, Israeli craft beer on tap or grape flavored arak. Everything is made from fresh ingredients each day, making this traditional soul food not just delicious, but also a healthy treat. Just as Momma would want.
