Only food that was worth waiting in line for those Wednesdays. Glad to hear they have a dedicated spot now!

best food on campus and it's not even close, I've graduated and i'd come back just for it (hopefully the stucen location is as good as the OG)

I don't see anything about this online or on social media. Are they putting up permanent-looking signage in that spot? If they're not, then they're probably only there temporarily.

In NAV dining hall

If that sign is in a dining hall then it's definitely permanent and I was wrong.

I mean, as permanent as the Taco Bell was, and as permanent as Slutty Vegan was.

RIP Taco Bell. Gone but not forgotten.

There's a permanent sign above the location. It looks like they're there to stay.

Don't know. Slutty Vegan had a spot there for when they were in business there, so here's hoping it's permanent.

Slutty Vegan's arrival was heavily featured on the Tech Dining IG. Same with Dunkin and Jimmy Johns. If they're not doing the same with Marrakech Express, there's probably a reason for that.

Maybe cause it's technically not new to campus?

I doubt tech dining would hang a proper sign up for a temporary addition.

I don’t think anything makes me miss tech more than the weekly Marrakech express

Oh my goodness, I wonder if this is why they haven't been showing up at the Emory summer farmers' markets. If they are a Tech exclusive now I'm happy for y'all but also extremely sad.

FWIW, I've also seen them at Saturday markets at Piedmont Park and I think they have a full-fledged location in Smyrna.

Are the hours online incorrect? I see 11am to 7pm but its closed by then? https://dining.gatech.edu/location/marrakech-express

u/Healing6 2d ago

They are correct. It’s just that the location is still under maintenance so they are having to bring the food over there. Probably closing early since they’re running out.
