Jerome Engel reviewed La Biblioteca
after reading some negative reviews, I was cautious, but I got to say I was very positively surprised.
Plus: very friendly staff, my El Diablo Burrito was very good and hot, the corn battered fries where amazing. the cocktails where good and the overall presentation was perfect. also the prices got lower then what most complained about here, I had a cocktail, Burrito and desert for about 32 euros total.
negative: my friend had the shrimp tacos, apparently they where a bid bland and missing salt, some salt on the table would have solved this already. the two waiters where a bit overwhelmed when the terrasse was full, maybe get one or two more waiters and it's fine. I asked about their dessert of the day and it took almost 40 minutes, and we where about to leave until I got an answer and further 15 minutes until I got the dessert.
Result: overall I would recommend it and go again.
Helen reviewed French Cooking School
I stayed with Poul and Niall at their beautiful home and attended the cook school over the New Year. I had a great time, learnt so much but in such a relaxed atmosphere with such great hosts. I hired a car and took the opportunity to visit lovely places in the afternoons recommended by them. The food, wine and company made it a brilliant way to spend a New Year break. I can't recommend the place highly enough, the location would be great in the summer time too...
