On the waterfront in Aïn Diab, this Norman Foster–designed shopping mall is a good place to stock up on provisions, with a supermarket, a pharmacy and plenty of retail outlets. Free wi-fi too. It's also home to Megarama, the plushest cinema in town with four comfortable theatres that are usually packed.
