Baby Beef RUBAIYAT

I had the opportunity of closing a circle. Back in july of 2000 I visited Cabaña Las Lilas and reported it. Since then I had the opportunity to visit their Baby Beef RUBAIYAT in Madrid and now, here in Sao Paulo, I tried both Baby Beef RUBAIYAT and Figueira. All were recommendations by Helena Martínez, she just love the food and the ambiance.

SKye

  • skye. Av Brigadeiro Luis Antonio, 4700. Jardim Paulista 01402-002. Sao Paulo. Brasil. Tel +55 1130554700. A definition for the place is a meal with a view. Perfectly located in a singular and expensive area of Sao Paulo. This 8th floor restaurant dominates the city. It is good to have a nice aperitive at the terrace: cahipirinha is a must. Food is good not so expensive and imaginative. You can have a nice time. We were for the Japanese fusion cuisine. Wines are really overpriced. Make your reservation and ask for a table netx to the window (for two persons).

    This was a recommendation by Helena Martínez.

Arola

  • We returned yesterday (30/08/2009). Now they have two taster's menus. It keeps a high standard. Make your reservation.
  • Arola. Hotel Arts. c/Marina 19-21. Barcelona 08005. Tel + 934838090. Sergi Arola is now offering his high cuisine in Barcelona. The Menu is short BUT extraordinay. Quality and price are in perfect consonance. The taster's menu is round 45€. I found wines very expensive but the selection unique. They have an extraordinaty Terrace. You should reserve. They have chill music and I found it noisy. This a contribution by Helena Martínez. Give it a try.

Restaurante Casa Bonilla

I was there just two days ago. We tried it for dinner. We discover there a nice ambiance, a patio sourronded by tropical garden, in a typical house. The food was basically seafood , including shrimp and langostinos, cooked in all possible ways. It was one of those meals to celebrate. A must if you are in Coatepec.

In Granada I was visiting, this time, some splendid restaurants.

The materials are also first class, good cellar and a very adjusted price. Traditional Granda dishes. A contribution by Alberto Prieto.
