A unique seafood journey in the middle of nowhere with 2 Michelin stars: Restaurant BonAmb (16. September 2022)
I was stocked to go to the BonAmb (which stands for Bon Ambiente) as it was definitely a change of cuisine and one more Two Michelin Star restaurant to tick off my list. The evening starts very lovely with the first dishes by the entrance (but more about that in a second). The owner and […]
Perfect to rest after a round of golf: Restaurante Hoyo 19 @ La Sella Golf (16. September 2022)
After a round of golf, it feels just perfect to sit down and eat something a bit heavier than usually. I went for the “Mediterranean chickpea hummus with falafel, Lebanese bread, and crudités” (EUR 9.00) and the “crispy chicken goujons with fried potato wedges and served with a salad garnish” (EUR 9.50). Both was good. […]
Better than the name would suggest: Restaurant The Food Bar (14. September 2022)
The name of the restaurant isn’t really that appealing, since “The Food Bar” is really just kind of lame name. To be fair though, the place is quite nice since the interior design is lovely, and you get to sit outside if you want. It’s key though to book your table in advance, since it […]
Decent Asian dishes at the Spanish seaside: Restaurant Carnaval (14. September 2022)
Frankly, it’s maybe not the most natural thing to eat Asian in Spain, but somehow it was time to eat an everyone was starving, so we picked a place which offers good food, even if not very local. I still tried to get my local share of food. I went for the “edamame with chilli […]
A delicious find with a personal note and the possibility to enjoy a delicious cuisine: Restaurant Uma (6. August 2022)
The Restaurant Uma is listed on the Guide Michelin, so I decided to give it a try. They have a standard “tasting menu” (EUR 110.00) which is not explained. You just get what you get. Which is a concept I like quite a bit – the fact that they would not share their menu with […]
Delicious breakfast selection: Restaurant Batuar @ Cotton House, Autograph Collection (7. August 2022)
When I’m in Barcelona, I like to stay at the Cotton House – it’s a lovely hotel with great rooms, a lovely rooftop pool, and extremely competent and friendly staff. On top of that, the Batuar has a small, but exquisite breakfast buffet which serves freshly cut ham as one of my favourite bites. On […]
An exquisite private club with delicious drinks: Nou Pipa Club (5. August 2022)
The Nou Pipa Club is a kind of ‘private club’ but it’s possible to enter without being a member or the like. You just have to know where and how you get in. Once that is sorted, you have to walk up a small stairway to the second floor where you find a door to […]
Truly local and interesting but far from mind-blowing: Restaurant Los Caracoles (5. August 2022)
The Los Caracoles has been on my recommendation list for quite a while. So, it was about time that I gave it a try and went to eat there. It’s highly recommended that you book a table in advance since it’s relatively crowded – even if you enter only at 9.30pm. I went for the […]
