Todo estupendo. Probamos un poco de todo, desde los helados hasta los bocadillos, y todo con toque especial y único. (Translated by Google) Everything was great. We tried a little bit of everything, from ice cream to sandwiches, and everything had a special and unique touch.

Cuando bajamos del telesférico nos sentamos a comer alli. No pudimos tomar mejor decisión. LOS BOCADILLOS SON OTRO ROLLO (El de cabra te abre las puertas del cielo). De postre los helados artesanales, INCREIBLES, el de chocolate otro nivel. Y por supuesto el servicio, una maravilla, te explican todo, especial mención a Anibal, jna gran persona. (Translated by Google) When we got off the cable car, we sat down to eat there. We couldn't have made a better decision. The sandwiches are something else (the goat cheese one is heavenly). For dessert, the homemade ice creams were incredible; the chocolate one was on another level. And of course, the service was wonderful. They explain everything. Special mention to Anibal, a great guy.
