Morrocan (or other non-W. European cusine) in Madrid/Centro

Having been in Madrid for two months now, we decided to branch out into Indian food. Having heard there were decent places on Lavapies, all of which were crowded, we chose one (do not remember name, was #42). Alas, my rule on never going to a restaurant that needs a hooker (male bringing you into restaurant, not someone with a short skirt who is working) remains correct. Horrible. Even the onion bajee (bazee) was terrible. And bland, would have been an embarassment in the American midwest.

So, since I still am interested in sometimes eating other than Italian or Spanish, does anyone have any specific recommendations for Moroccan (seems like it would be the best choice) or some Asian (non-Japanese, they are easy to find) resto near the center. Presumably Lavapies is the right barrio, but my experience last night scares me.

Gracias
Neal
