By transforming Mes’Lalla’s menu, Chef Marx will turn the restaurant into a French eatery, where he will revisit French culinary tradition to craft a selection of contemporary dishes that are as visually enticing as they are a joy to eat.

POP-UP MARX diners will be invited to discover an À La Carte Menu of unconventional recipes such as Salmon with seaweed, Carpaccio of Octopus, and even Zucchini with marinated peach and marjoram jus, a series of exciting new taste and texture combinations that will delight epicureans.
