Spanish food with great atmosphere. My local spot for a lunch and coffee, also perfect for a romantic couples dinner. Only 5min walk from the apartment. I'd recommend the Calamari (squid) on the menu. I get it every time, It's that good! :P

Delicious and fresh Thai food, always my go to during winter especially when you want something spicy, such as a Tom Yum soup to keep you warm! A few other favourites of mine include the cashew chicken/vegetable stir fry on rice and also the Massaman Lamb curry.
