You remember a few months ago I praise a Spanish restaurant with very good paella? Well I went back to
Café Cantante few weeks ago now and if it was my first visit, I would certainly never returned. At first all goes well: a dinner with friends in a restaurant we love. 2 starters are ordered, the two other girls prefer to order a dessert. We tested the 7 tapas’ plate at 17 € and is not disappointed! Very good things. I ordered croquetas I love and it wasn’t the same as usual, although it was still good. For the main course, we ordered mixed paella and there is drama. The paellas are clearly warmed: cooked in advance and reheated just before serving us. But then, it was not really hot, the rice was dry and overcooked, the edges of the dishes are charred and long ago, there was little in the plates. Frankly, I was disappointed because it was not good and because we are regular customers and they could make an effort. Anyway I don’t suggest you this address anymore…
