Not only because we ended up renting a home in the area that we preferred but also because we have had the pleasure of accidentally finding a few awesome tapa places along the way. I have tons of pictures for this first place that was so amazing regarding ambiance as well as the food experience (almost food p*rn!) that I want to dedicate one or maybe even two posts about that place when I have the peace of mind for it. While this first place was actually in another part of the town, we discovered that the 3 other connected restaurants to this place are all three located within walking distance of our actual home. I have to say that the first one was my favorite so far, but we yet have to test out some more tapas to be 100% sure.
Where you can sometimes still wait for a long time until a waiter notices you order even a drink while you sit in the 35+ degrees being all thirsty, this will never be an issue with the 4 branches of this place as they totally embraced the digital possibilities you can use to help speed up the process of ordering food as well as getting your bill when you're finished and want to go home. They have QR codes that you can scan, you go to their website, the restaurant knows which table you are ordering from and you can just browse the menu without the need for a real paper menu anymore. I bet this all came to life during the pandemic when smart business owners started to think of ways to have less physical contact as well as dirty fingers touching everything. I honestly feel every restaurant should embrace this, ordering in person is still possible, but those that prefer to order this way can use this instead to avoid long waits because the waiters were helping other guests before they noticed you. I think it's an absolute blessing and I love it!
And yet they made the food look so appealing that I dared to order out of my comfort zone several times and actually enjoyed the food as well. Let me tell you, that it takes a good restaurant to let me dare to do this. My boyfriend ordered this salad and as a topping, there was a frozen sauce, I don't remember what it was exactly but it was damn good!
Soon more to come, I promise you will be entertained and you will get hungry watching the pictures lol.
Have a good weekend!
