img7b.jpg

A Former warehouse the grand bazaar is painted with such brightness that it draws the eyes towards it while assaulting them with color. The exterior has been gussyed up with exotic if not slightly tacky wood facings, seen typically by outsiders as merely a pleasure house the grand bazaar is just that but living up to its name by offering not just pleasure of the flesh but of drink and well cooked meals also it offers an out let for local if not sometimes untraditional musicians , artist and other types of performers to practice their craft. The interior is heavily decorated almost to the point of extremes all types of paintings and tokens from patrons line the walls mixed with silken curtains its hard to tell what the color is underneath the decoration. There is a small stage and a decently stocked bar the entrance to the kitchens located behind it off to the side of the stage there is a large painting of an elderly human male said to be the Madam of the grand Bazaars late and still fondly regarded husband tables are scatted throughout the establishment but easily and encourage to be manipulated away to make way for a makeshift dance floor across from the bar but closer to the entrance of the “Grand Bazaar” Is a small makeshift Shoppe (Former store room) and beside it is the entrance to the “Temple of pleasure” The home and work place of the Lords and ladies of the evening.

Food

The food is almost as spicy as the atmosphere with the cooks constantly experimenting with new foods dreamed up or brought by travelers from foreign lands it is rumored that the owners sometimes will take payment in spices and other exotic goods if they happen to tickle their fancy. The grand bazaar is most famous for one dish in particular, taouk it consist of skewers of marinated goat or lamb its normally served with a basmati rice and a spicy white bean sauce. But the spice loving cooks will sometimes make exceptions for the more timid dinner of course they will only do so after they are done egging you on.
