5. July 2015: Restaurant Biblioteka No. 1

Apparently, the Restaurant Biblioteka No. 1 belongs to the best restaurants in Riga. After having had dinner there – I would not agree! Vincents and Valtera are definitely way beyond what the Restaurant Biblioteka No. 1 has to offer. But step by step. The “9 course degustation menu” (EUR 60.00) sounded lovely – given you […]

5. July 2015: Restaurant Valtera

Usually, I would not follow the recommendation of a tourist guide, however, as I randomly walked up to the Restaurant Valtera which had been recommended to me the previous day, I decided to give it a shot. And I must admit, I was not disappointed at all! Although in the beginning I was not entirely […]

4. July 2015: Restorāns Vincents

The “5 course degustation menu” (EUR 90.00) with the very promising description “our chefs offer a degustation menu, an ultimate taste of Restaurant Vincents. It’s a celebration of Chef Martins Ritins finest and most popular dishes utilising the best seasonal produce available” started very promising indeed. The moment you are seated the first course is […]

4. July 2015: Black Magic Bar

The Black Magic Bar is a place you pass by and don’t really enter – but as the tour guide also showed this bar in particular, I decided to go there and try the local special called “Riga Black Balsam, 0,5dl” (EUR 4.50). It is a special drink which is made of 24 ingredients and […]

4. July 2015: Restaurant Planeta

I usually conduct quite a lot of research before actually going to a restaurant – however, this time I did not and I was quite positively surprised by what I found. As it was burning hot, I was looking for a refreshing drink and the “Crush Kumquats, 0,4L” (EUR 4.00) is definitely what you can […]

4. July 2015: Restaurant Esplanāde @ Radisson Blu Latvija Hotel

As apparently in most cases, the atmosphere of the Breakfast restaurant Esplanade in the Radisson Blu Latvija Hotel is not really overwhelming. But the breakfast for EUR 21.00 is absolutely okay as the selection varies starting from cold cuts and cheeses … … to an omelet station … … fresh fruit … … cereals and […]

3. July 2015: Restaurant Rozengrāls

The Rozengrals is again a middle age themed restaurant – even more than the Olde Hansa in Tallinn. The “smoked deer ham with cowberry and cheese cream” (EUR 12.90) is definitely good but also incredibly intense in its taste and the cheese cream portion is very generous! As always, I kind of had to try […]
