Falling over its own adorably kitschy deco, Musk Decoration is one of those curious shops where you want to pick everything up (and buy it). Stylish retro lamps, cool Warhol-esque stools and quaint hand-of-Fatima pouches (36 Rue Aïn Assardoun, tel: 0522 390 769).

The Twin Centre is one of Casa's most famous landmarks in the heart of Maarif, the trendiest shopping district. It houses a supermarket, modern and traditional boutiques as well as the five-star Kenzi Tower Hotel.

Founded in 1903 in Fez, Yazami is a well-established name in Casablanca for its homemade goodness: fresh cheeses, traditional sweets and the best "selou" in town. Don't ask, just try! (40 Bd Bir Anzarane, Maarif, 0522-259-696; 104 Bd Moulay Idriss 1er, 0522 865 666)

With not much to shop for in the economic capital, why don't you buy yourself some relaxation at the Gauthier Bain Turc before getting the plane home?
