1. Tea rooms in Florence: “Derb”, a Moroccan oasis.
March 10, 2010
Located close to the Medici Chaples and the San Lorenzo church, right two steps from MR My Resort Inn, the “Derb” Moroccan Tea Room creates a tranquil setting for enjoy tea, but this places is not only a typical tea room.
As a Tea Room, here you can find the best Moroccan selections of typical tea from the large menu, together with typical biscuits and home-made cakes, some in Moroccan style, others more italian. Here it is possible to have a light lunch with a vegetarian cous-cous or a good panino, or come in the afternoon to read a newspaper and sip a home-made fruit-juice, or a tea with fresh ingredients and special aromas (try the Risveglio a Marrakech, or Notti d’Arabia, or just the simple tea with fresh mint). The late afternoon this is a good place for aperitivs, too.
But as I told you, this is not only a Tea Room. The proprietor, Sofia, is a young sweet girl who creates jewels in Moroccan style in her laboratory located in a part of the “Derb”; you can see her working at rings or hear-rings while you’re sit at the table with your drink.
In addiction, she imports directly from Morocco some typical hand-crafts products: hand-made covers in colored silk, silk pillows, moroccan slippers in leather, and the famous “tagine”, that they use to prepare the cous cous but that one’s can use and a standard plateau to serve food on table. Colored glasses decorated with silver, warm colored dishes hand-decorated.
Do you want to discover the true secret of the Moroccan girls beauty? Here is it: the Argan Oil. This prodigious, completely natural element, is considered as a must by all the arabian ladies, and it is actually used in most of recent beauty treatments for hair, body and face. You can find it at “Derb”, pure 100% and bio, at a very reasonable price! Don’t miss it! You can use the Argan Oil after our Body Space experience at MR My Resort…
