Casablanca, Rick's Café

Rick’s Café, designed to recreate the famous piano bar made famous in the movie “Casablanca.” We had lunch there with our driver, Rostom, and I had “Obama Family Chili,” of all things, with couscous.

Everybody was trying to get a shot of the piano and old poster advertising a 52-day camel caravan to Timbuktu, so this was the best I could get without being accused of hogging the scene or sitting on a table where people were dining ;-).

Posted earlier, a view of the exterior of Rick’s Café:
