Update 230824 I don't know what happened to them (they changed the cook or the supplier) but as usual I ordered a breaded chicken Milanese, normally it was so big and double that you couldn't finish it, very good, BUT THIS OCCASION THEY SERVED ME (ONE SHEET IS MORE DOUBLE THAN THAT MILANESA) A MILANESA THAT WAS MORE GROUND BREAD THAN ANYTHING ELSE, HORRIBLE AND WITH A PORTION SMALLER THAN A PALM FROM MY HAND, WITH A "SALAD" (IT WAS PURE CHAYOTE) SIMPLE THE TRUTH DISAPPOINTED ME. Expensive but worth it, very good food, excellent service, delicious coffee.
