lost time… #SoL15 slices that never were…As time goes by

…a lost time and slices series...one for every missed post...



As time goes by....
Rick’s Café is a restaurant, bar and café in Casablanca, Morocco. It was founded in 2004 by Kathy Kriger, a former American diplomat in Morocco, and was designed to recreate the ‘gin joint’ made famous in the 1942 movie classic, Casablanca. 
It is housed in a 1930s courtyard-style mansion which is built against the walls of the Old Medina and filled with architectural and decorative details reminiscent of the film: curved arches, a sculpted bar, balconies, balustrades as well as beaded and stencilled brass lighting and plants that cast luminous shadows on white walls. There is an authentic 1930’s Pleyel piano and an in-house pianist.
