After a lacklustre LX factory visit, I was looking for a good lunch spot nearby. We were on the way to another place but on seeing the vibe we were on the verge of going back to the hotel and eat from a nearby McDonald's. That's when right opposite to the first spot we saw a small cafe teeming with locals with couple of folks waiting even to get a table. This immediately caught my eye as a potential hidden gem in the Alacantra area.
Our spontaneous visit turned out to be a great experience for us. The staff though not knowing English helped us get a table quickly. They had no English menu but Google translate helped us figure out what to order.
We had the Entrocote pork ribs with simple peri Peri potatoes and chicken stroganoff. The ribs were lip smackingly good and the potatoes reminded me of what we eat back home. Despite the language barrier I was showing my appreciation to the staff for what I ate.
The place is great for anyone looking for a great tasting lunch and breakfast. I will recommend anyone visiting LX factory to skip the average food inside there...
