Reinverso Bar — Restaurant in Valencia

We popped into Reinverso Bar for lunch while wandering through the cozy El Carmen neighborhood in Valencia’s old town, and man, what a gem! This place has such a chilled, welcoming vibe—super gezellig, as the Dutch would say—and the staff were just lovely, all smiles and helpfulness.

Nothing fresh. Nothing tasty. Clearly no pride dishing out this sort of rubbish. We complained when paying and were told by the waitress that 'she didn't make it'. Nobody made any of it, be...
