Outstanding service in a mind-blowing interior: Restaurant La Selva (15. October 2023)

I was recommended to visit the La Selva by a friend, and I must say, it’s a great recommendation. Once you’re seated, you’re served a few “smoked edamame” on the house, and they were actually much better than I had expected. As starters, we went for the “corn toast with yellow fin tuna and guacamole” […]

An absolutely well-deserved Michelin star with outstanding service: Restaurant Mont Bar (14. October 2023)

When you read the name ‘Mont Bar’ you wouldn’t expect this to be a place with a Michelin star, but it has one, and I feel it deserves one. I was a bit late, which seemed to be a problem since they have two seatings. Oopsi! Well, since there is basically just the “Tasting Menu” […]

A decent Galician restaurant experience: Restaurant La Penela (14. October 2023)

Given bedtime was super late, I ended up having a late lunch again the next day. I wasn’t really sure where to go, so I looked for something in walking distance of the hotel, as I really didn’t want to eat another 10 courses for lunch after a felt 20 courses the day and night […]

A delicious Michelin-starred restaurant going the extra mile: Restaurant Caelis (13. October 2023)

A delicious Michelin-starred restaurant going the extra mile: Restaurant Caelis (13. October 2023)

The Caelis is on the first floor of a hotel and the entrance is a bit hidden. Once you’re inside, you realise that the place is not really huge, but at the same time it isn’t small either. So, from an interior design perspective, it creates a feeling of crowdedness despite the fact that it’s […]

Better for a drink in the sun than for lunch: Goja Rooftop Bar @ Renaissance Barcelona Hotel (13. October 2023)

Better for a drink in the sun than for lunch: Goja Rooftop Bar @ Renaissance Barcelona Hotel (13. October 2023)

As mentioned previously, the Goja Rooftop Bar is nice – and even better in the afternoon, when you score a table, where you can enjoy a drink in the sun! I went for the “Mexican Garden (200 Conejos Mezcal, Patron Silver Tequila, Cointreau Celery and coriander cordial, Lime, Celery salt)” (EUR 16.00) and it was […]

An amazing restaurant serving tuna only: Restaurant Tunateca Balfegó Espai Gastronòmico (13. October 2023)

I was looking for a place, which was open for a late lunch and actually offered great dishes (according to the rating on Google Maps) and stumbled upon the Tunateca Balfegó Espai Gastronòmico, which specialises in tuna. I went for the “Blue Gourmet Menu” (EUR 93.00), which seemed very reasonable in terms of pricing – […]

Amazing experience at the sister restaurant of Disfrutar: Restaurant Compartir (12. October 2023)

The Compartir is the sister restaurant of the Disfrutar (which is number 2 of the world according to the San Pellegrino list ‘The World’s 50 Best’). So, I’m still very much intrigued to visit Disfrutar one day! In any case, we went for the tasting menu (EUR 115.00 per person), which started with a few […]

Decent rooftop restaurant experience: Restaurant Goja Rooftop @ Renaissance Barcelona Hotel (12. October 2023)

While not everything went smoothly when I stayed at the Renaissance Barcelona Hotel, I must say the Goja Rooftop is a nice place to visit. During our working sessions, we had our lunch break on the rooftop and the food selection was actually quite nice. It was a set menu, which started with “seafood paella”, […]
