Ik ben (voor mijn werk) op zoek naar een hip, goed restaurant in Valencia. Nu ben ik al de hele tijd aan het 'googlen'. En aan het kijken op tripadvisor. Maar kan niet echt wat vinden. Misschien zoek ik verkeerd?!
Weet iemand een goed restaurant in Valencia? Of heeft iemand een tip waar ik kan zoeken?
Alvast heel erg bedankt!

Montes schijnt geweldig te zijn, het heeft de bib gourmand van de michelin gids (geen ster wel vermelding voor uitstekende prijs-kwaliteit verhouding)
Ik ga er zaterdag eten en kan je dan wel vertellen of het aan de verwachtingen voldoet (net toevallig weekendje Valencia geboekt )
Vertical schijnt ook erg goed te zijn,
