A decent experience in the third restaurant of Ricard Camarena: BAR X by Ricard Camarena (29. June 2025)
It’s quite a while since I’ve last been to Valencia, and I’ve had the chance to try two of the three restaurants run by the Bar X. The Bar X is right next to the Habitual, but is a bit less formal and a bit more jovial. Next in line was the “Valencian tomato, dried […]
Definitely a must-do when you’re in Valencia in a space with only 5 tables: Restaurant Fierro (28. June 2025)
The Fierro is definitely an interesting place with only five tables and ten seats, so, booking in advance is an absolute must if you want to score a place. Luckily, I had done so, and this allowed for a nice and interesting foodie evening. We decided to go for the “Tasting Menu ‘Emotion’ (an invitation […]
Decent location with good service: Petit Comité (28. June 2025)
Before heading to dinner, we figured a quick break with a nice drink would be lovely, so we decided to pay this place a visit. I then decided to go for the “Illegal (Mezcal 7 Misterios, Plantation Ron Overproof, Falernum, fresh lime juice, 1 bar spoon Maraschino Luxardo, simple syrup, vegan foam)” (EUR 12.00), which […]
A true gem from an interior design perspective – and with good dishes too: Restaurant La Sastreria (28. June 2025)
This place was highly recommended for their paella and its interior design, hence, I figured we should give this place a shot. We started with the “lopez ‘Serie Oro’ anchovy on crispy fishbone and smoked butter” (EUR 5.50 / unidad), which is a great bite if you’re into anchovies. And, frankly, the combination with the […]
An amazing dining experience if you’re into intense flavors: Restaurant Karak (27. June 2025)
Frankly, I didn’t quite know what to expect when I entered this place, but I was immediately captivated by the interior design. The place looks super interesting and despite the fact that it is all rather dark, you feel somehow comfortable. I had originally booked the “medium tasting menu”, but after the first few dishes, […]
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 […]
