Tasty but nothing like real Mexican cuisine: Restaurant Chintumá Taqueria (11. December 2021)
When I’m kind of starving and just want to find a place where I can eat something tasty, then I tend to retort to Google – and often it works. There was this Mexican place with a 4.7 rating and I was, of course, skeptical if it was actually able to mimic Mexican cuisine. Now, […]
My best restaurant find on the island: Restaurant Donaire (10. December 2021)
It’s not that easy to find a place for dinner last minute which fulfills certain expectations. After deciding short notice to go and have something to eat, I had to do quite a bit of researching and planning to find a place which actually offered what I wanted. Once seated and being able to place […]
When a random restaurant walk-in actually turns out nice: Restaurant Rosso sul Mare (10. December 2021)
It’s funny when you walk into a place which has a good rating and then it turns out to be another place – which is okay too. I somehow overlooked the restaurant I originally wanted to go into – and was wondering why the menu was strongly Italian-based when I got it. However, I didn’t […]
Decent but simple dishes with friendly service: Restaurant Mundo Iberico (9. December 2021)
Sometimes you just want to eat something simple and the Mundo Iberico offers that. I went for the “tostada (pan con tomate)” (EUR 4.50) to start but also to have something with the cold cuts I was about to order. I went for a “1/2 Porcion Jamon Bellota Huelva” (EUR 15.00) which was nice since […]
One of the better restaurants and yet far from outstanding: Restaurant Sucas (8. December 2021)
Finally, I found a place which was better than all the restaurants I had tried before on Tenerife. The Sucas offers a “menú degustación” (EUR 65.00) which starts with small snacks which are basically fried strips of dough but were nice. Then, some “bread (regular, tomato, curry) is served with butter and salt” which is […]
Not really what you expect of a good restaurant: Restaurant La Glorieta @ Sheraton La Caleta (7. December 2021)
When you’re home late and just want to have a small bite, then sometimes a hotel restaurant isn’t all too bad. The La Glorieta offered that which was what I was looking for. However, unfortunately, the service wasn’t up to the task. Firstly, they aren’t really attentive and it took quite a while until someone […]
When missing due diligence makes you walk into a tourist trap: Restaurant Lagarto (6. December 2021)
Sometimes, things are so promising and turn out to be quite disappointing. The restaurant Lagarto was exactly that case. I went for the “Lagarto Tasting Menu” (EUR 45.00) which sounded quite appealing and lovely. However, it turned out to be not that way. The “lobster bisque (a rich reduced intense homemade bisque creamy soup served […]
When the view is the only breath-taking thing: Restaurant Las Terrazas del Sauzal (5. December 2021)
After weeks in Mexico, everything starts tasting bland. And, unfortunately, that was also the case here. The Las Terrazas del Sauzal sound super promising as they offer a nice view over the city but somehow, you are not really experience anything great in terms of what you get there. They offer “bread and butter with […]
