How to find the best restaurant when you are in another country? By chance... 馃槈 When I was buying souvenirs, I asked the seller if he could recommend a good restaurant. He said he knew a great place that always had fresh fish and seafood and the locals went there. When we went there, it turned out to be a small restaurant, and when I wanted to sit down several times, I was told that the seats I liked were reserved. I didn't feel good there, but I liked the restaurant nearby. It was "Cavo D'oro". When we went there, I saw a nice place to sit, located on the side, on a sofa with large pillows providing comfortable back support. When I asked if I could sit there, I said yes, of course. What a difference compared to the previous restaurant. Dinner here promised to be much better.
Jak znale藕膰 najlepsz膮 knajpk臋, gdy jest si臋 w innym kraju? Przypadkiem... 馃槈 Gdy kupowa艂am pami膮tki zapyta艂am sprzedawc臋, czy m贸g艂by poleci膰 jak膮艣 dobr膮 restauracj臋. Powiedzia艂, 偶e zna 艣wietne miejsce, gdzie s膮 zawsze 艣wie偶e ryby i owoce morza i chodz膮 tam miejscowi. Gdy tam poszli艣my okaza艂o si臋, 偶e to ma艂a restauracja, a gdy chcia艂am usi膮艣膰 kilka razy us艂ysza艂am, 偶e miejsca do siedzenia, kt贸re mi si臋 podobaj膮 s膮 zarezerwowane. Nie czu艂am si臋 tam dobrze, ale spodoba艂a mi si臋 restauracja znajduj膮ca si臋 w pobli偶u. To by艂a "Cavo D'oro". Gdy tam poszli艣my zobaczy艂am fajne miejsce do siedzenia, usytuowane z boku, na takiej jakby kanapie z du偶ymi poduszkami daj膮cymi wygodne podparcie pod plecy. Gdy zapyta艂am si臋, czy mog臋 tam usi膮艣膰 us艂ysza艂am: tak, oczywi艣cie. Jaka r贸偶nica w por贸wnaniu do poprzedniej restauracji. Kolacja w tym miejscu zapowiada艂a si臋 o wiele lepiej.
The interior of the restaurant was very bright. White and sandy colors dominated. The furniture looked elegant, with large beige sun umbrellas unfolded above it. I liked this simple, classic style.
Wn臋trze restauracji by艂o bardzo jasne. Dominowa艂a biel i piaskowe kolory. Meble wygl膮da艂y elegancko, a nad nimi by艂y roz艂o偶one du偶e be偶owe parasole przeciws艂oneczne. Spodoba艂 mi si臋 ten prosty, klasyczny styl.
The light brown wooden lamps hanging from above were also cool. Thanks to this design, I felt good about this restaurant from the very beginning and I was glad that I changed the restaurant, because in the previous one I had the impression from the very beginning that it was not a place for me. What is your approach? Have you ever gone to a restaurant and left before placing your order because something about it didn't suit you?
Fajne by艂y te偶 jasnobr膮zowe, drewniane lampy zwisaj膮ce z g贸ry. Dzi臋ki takiemu designowi czu艂am si臋 w tej restauracji dobrze od samego pocz膮tku i cieszy艂am si臋, 偶e zmieni艂am restauracj臋, bo w poprzedniej od pocz膮tku mia艂am wra偶enie, 偶e to nie jest miejsce dla mnie. A jakie wy macie podej艣cie? Zdarzy艂o wam si臋 p贸j艣膰 do restauracji i wyj艣膰 z niej przed z艂o偶eniem zam贸wienia, bo co艣 wam w niej nie odpowiada艂o?
The view of the lighthouse, port and sea was amazing. And at the same time, this is a very unusual situation for me, because I rarely have the opportunity to eat something with such a view, outdoors. There was a light wind from the sea, and even though it was after 9 p.m. and it was two weeks ago, i.e. in mid-October, I was wearing summer clothes. At one point I felt a little cold and the waiter offered me a blanket. It's nice that they have such useful things in the restaurant to ensure the comfort of customers.
Widok na latarni臋 morsk膮, port i morze by艂 niesamowity. A jednocze艣nie jest to dla mnie sytuacja bardzo nietypowa, bo rzadko kiedy mam okazj臋 zje艣膰 co艣 z takim widokiem, na 艣wie偶ym powietrzu. Od morza wia艂 lekki wiatr i chocia偶 by艂o ju偶 po 21:00. i to by艂o dwa tygodnie temu, czyli w po艂owie pa藕dziernika, nosi艂am letnie ubrania. W pewnym momencie zrobi艂o mi si臋 troch臋 zimno i kelner poda艂 mi koc. Fajnie, 偶e w restauracji maj膮 takie przydatne rzeczy i dbaj膮 o komfort klient贸w.
We had to wait longer for the food, but the waiter quickly brought me a drink - mojito (sweet version). Unusually colored red.
Na jedzenie musieli艣my d艂u偶ej poczeka膰, ale kelner szybko przyni贸s艂 mi drinka - s艂odkie mojito. Nietypowo zabarwione na czerwono.
A characteristic feature of seaside restaurants is displaying the menu outside. In this restaurant, the menu looked even better due to the view of the port.
Charakterystyczn膮 cech膮 nadmorskich restauracji jest wystawianie menu na zewn膮trz. W tej restauracji menu prezentowa艂o si臋 jeszcze lepiej z uwagi na widok na port.
After about twenty minutes, fish appeared on the table. I ordered sea bream, and the person I was with in the restaurant ordered sea bass. We also got fries, grilled vegetables and sauces. The fries were delicious, sprinkled with some herbs. Sea bream was also very tasty, perfectly grilled. The olive oil sauce went very well with it.
Po oko艂o dwudziestu minutach na stole pojawi艂y si臋 ryby. Ja zam贸wi艂am dorad臋, a osoba z kt贸r膮 by艂am w restauracji - okonia morskiego. Do tego dostali艣my frytki i grillowane warzywa oraz sosy. Frytki by艂y pyszne, posypane jakimi艣 zio艂ami. Dorada te偶 bardzo smaczna, idealnie usma偶ona na grillu. Bardzo pasowa艂 do niej sosik z oliw膮 z oliwek.
From my table I had a view of the kitchen and could watch the chef prepare various dishes, including my fish. I like it when a restaurant is designed in such a way that the chef's work is visible. A restaurant like this has nothing to hide.
Z mojego stolika mia艂am podgl膮d na kuchni臋 i mog艂am obserwowa膰 jak kucharz robi r贸偶ne potrawy, w tym moj膮 rybk臋. Lubi臋 jak restauracja zaprojektowana jest w ten spos贸b, 偶e wida膰 prac臋 kucharza. Taka restauracja nie ma nic do ukrycia.
As usual in Greece, there were cats wandering around the restaurant. At one point a cat came asking for food. He didn't look like a typical street cat. He was well fed and had wonderful, well-groomed fur. I gave him some fish to eat. He looked purebred. He had a tortoiseshell coat color.
Jak zwykle w Grecji, po restauracji kr臋ci艂y si臋 koty. W pewnym momencie przyszed艂 kot, kt贸ry prosi艂 o jedzenie. Nie wygl膮da艂 na typowego kota ulicy. By艂 dobrze od偶ywiony i mia艂 cudowne, wypiel臋gnowane futerko. Wygl膮da艂 jak rasowy. Mia艂 szylkretowe umaszczenie. Da艂am mu do zjedzenia troch臋 ryby.
