Min Koy & Brasserie Flâneur: Two new gastronomic addresses at the Sofitel Casablanca Tour Blanche
The Sofitel Casablanca Tour Blanche marks an upscale shift in its culinary offering with the inauguration of Min Koy and Brasserie Flâneur Casablanca. Two new tables with distinct universes that enrich the hotel experience by combining the French art of living, international openness, and the promotion of local cultures.
Min koy & Brasserie Flâneur : Deux nouvelles adresses gastronomiques au Sofitel Casablanca Tour Blanche
These openings are part of a vast renovation project for the establishment, marking a strategic step in the repositioning of the Sofitel brand in Morocco. Through these two innovative concepts, the hotel intends to redefine the standards of gastronomic hospitality in the metropolis.
 
Min Koy, immersion in Japanese elegance
 
Inspired by the refined and poetic universe of traditional Japanese houses, Min Koy offers a sensory journey into the heart of contemporary Japan. With its forty covers, the venue pays homage to the koi carp – a symbol of resilience and ambition – by offering an intimate experience supported by harmonious architecture, raw materials, and a hushed atmosphere.

The menu is inspired by izakayas, those warm Japanese bistros, and features sushi, sashimi, and small dishes to share, made from products of impeccable freshness. Signature cocktails with notes of shiso or yuzu complete the experience, enhanced on certain evenings by discreet and refined musical performances.
Brasserie Flâneur Casablanca: casual Parisian chic
Retro-chic ambiance and cosmopolitan notes meet at Brasserie Flâneur Casablanca, the hotel's new living space. Between influences from Parisian cafes, London clubs, and resort houses, the decor blends elegance and conviviality.

On the plate, the brasserie pays homage to the classics of international cuisine – risotto, club sandwich, Caesar salad – while promoting Moroccan specialties. Added to this are two highlights: a generous brunch and a refined tea time, which promise to make this brasserie a must-visit place for gourmet appointments in Casablanca.

With its sixty covers spread between the main room and intimate alcoves, Brasserie Flâneur establishes itself as a new chic and accessible landmark. Open to the hotel lobby, it offers a fluid transition between spaces and an evolving musical atmosphere, from hushed jazz to more dynamic rhythms in the evening.
 
Renowned chefs at the helm
 
At the head of Min Koy, Chef Federico Navarro Casupanan brings more than two decades of international experience, acquired notably within the Four Seasons, Conrad, and Alila Resorts. A master of Japanese, Mediterranean, and international cuisines, he combines technicality, sustainability, and creativity to make each plate a work of art.

At the helm of Brasserie Flâneur, Chef Mohamed Abaragh, a rising figure on the Moroccan and French culinary scene, boasts an impressive background, marked by collaborations with Alain Ducasse and Fabrice Vulin. Winner of the public prize at the World Burger Contest 2025, he infuses the menu with a bold touch, balancing French finesse and local inspirations.
 
A new lease of life for luxury hospitality in Casablanca
 
By launching these two unprecedented concepts, the Sofitel Casablanca Tour Blanche affirms its ambition to transform the hotel experience into a permanent invitation to travel and gastronomic emotion. Min Koy and Brasserie Flâneur Casablanca are not just restaurants; they are destinations in their own right, ready to establish themselves on the culinary scene of the White City.
