La Otra Cocina — Restaurant in Valparaíso

A very picturesque old house restaurant. Full with little details decorating its walls. Flags, Valparaiso houses miniatures, old pictures, including a reminiscence from the past, showing two walls dedicated to ex president of Chile, Salvador Allende. An interesting place to be. The service was polite and fast. Friendly staff, bathrooms clean. Home made country side style Food, good portions for the right price. My dish was rice and beef and it was very tasty and tender. I asked for a fresh juice to drink. I've got pineapple. It had a weird taste. Not good at all. And when I came in there was a strong smell inside the house that i couldn't determine what i was and I took a table next to a window to keep it open but then the waiter closed it. Those 2 points made me score them 3. However, I would like to go back to try another option. Chilean Cazuela serverd to a table next to me it looked amazing. I would like to try it. And i won't ask for a juice unless it comes in a bottle. More ventilation is a must at least before they start...

We missed this restaurant a couple days earlier because they close around 4:30. I'm so glad we tried again. Of almost 2 weeks in Chile my meals have been so so at best. This family run restaurant made extra effort in many ways. Service was fabulous and served promptly despite my poor spanish. They have a set menu $10,000 weekly. There were appetizers with a fresh roll, a light chicken consume, our meal plus a gelado? All very nicely presented and prepared. They have a lovely eclectic collection of items on their walls, We were so happy to find this place on our last night...
