12. September 2014: Restaurant La Lola
The La Lola was recommended by a travel guide for having organic bio food so I thought why not give it a try for a change. The first impression was good as you get the “La Lola Lunch Menu” for a mere EUR 15.00. Not really knowing what to expect I was sceptical at first […]
12. September 2014: Restaurant Rosmarino @ Westin Valencia
Breakfast at the Restaurant Rosmarino is like in most Westin’s I have resided so far. The selection ranges from cold cuts (including Jamón Ibérico) to cheeses … … various fresh fruit juices (e.g. orange, apple, peach) … … sweet pastries … … cereals and jams … … fresh fruit and yoghurts … … a selection […]
11. September 2014: Restaurant Riff
The Restaurant Riff was recommended to me by a friend – and I thought I give it a try and it was a try I did not regret but neither was it a try which blew my mind. When we took our seats it only took them a couple of minutes to bring a selection […]
11. September 2014: Café Sant Jaume
Something I haven’t tried before provided me with something I have never experienced before – “Granizado de Limon” (EUR 2.00) and brain freeze. Now, “granizado” is basically crushed ice enriched with some flavour, in this case lemon. Obviously, it is very cold and if you slurp it up very quickly you experience something called brain […]
11. September 2014: Gelateria Amorino San Lorenzo
As everytime I walk by a Amorino I have to pay it a visit, I also entered the Gelateria Amorino San Lorenzo this time and went for something I have not tried yet – this time I took a “Coppa Media” (EUR 4.50) with “Vaniglia di Tahiti, Dulce de Leche, and Cocco Sri Lanka”. The […]
11. September 2014: Restaurant Caminos Cafeteria
My first impression of the Valencian cuisine was not necessarily the best. In all fairness, what I had at the Restaurant Caminos Cafeteria was absolutely okay but it was far from being the exquisite Spanish food I was used to from other Spanish cities. In order to gain a good insight I went for the […]
8. September 2014: Restaurant O’Tabe
The Restaurant O’Tabe offers two set menus for lunch and I decided to go for the “Sashimi O’Bento” (CHF 32.00) which also comes with a miso soup which was rather common and dull in taste. Luckily, the main course, the “Bento-Box with raw fish fresh from the market, rice, salad and fresh fruit” was definitely […]
7. September 2014: Restaurant Deja Vu OutSpot
After a hard night it is perfect to eat something heavy like a burger again (I think I haven’t had so much fast food in such a short period of time for quite a while) so I went for the “Bacon Cheese Burger Menu” (EUR 4.30). The burger was okay as the buns were a […]
