RESTAURANT LEGAT 1903

@paqito__

Legat 1903, Jasenička 7, Beograd Sa potvrđenom Michelin preporukom i za 2024. godinu Legat je krenuo jednim jako zanimljivim putem, pojačane nacionale ali u finom ruhu. Dakle ko je za repove ne mora u kafanu može ih naći i ovde i neće zažaliti ni sekunde. Ambijent restorana je izuzetan, besprekorno uređen sa vrhunskim servisom i vinskom kartom za ponos, pod znalačkom kontrolom Peđe Gavrilović. Znači ako biste repove i da uparite sa adekvatnim vinom, na pravom ste mestu. Sama hrana na jednom veoma visokom nivou, od počerka do kraja, repove sam već pomenuo više puta ali je i jagnjetina vrhunska a guščija džigerica, kao što rekoh, teško da negde ima bolja. Od prasećih bajaderica nisam očekivao mnogo jer nisam preterani fan hladne prasetine i nekako mi bajaderice uvek budu suvlje ali to ovde nije slučaj. Ispostavilo se kao idealno predjelo u ovakvoj postavci. Kožica i dalje hrska, nije suvo ni najmanje, što će reći sve kako treba.👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Restaurant Magellan

@paqito__

Restoran Đerdan, Jelene Mioc 1, Beograd Pripadnik stare garde gradskih restorana, Đerdan je ostao veran onome što od početka radi i što je bio trend u vreme kada je nastao, ogromnim porcijama. Kada kažem ogromnim mislim da retko ko može sam da pojede porciju bilo čega.😁 Ako može onda se zasigurno radi o velikom šampionu. Ono što je dobro je da može da se uzme polovina a negde i četvrtina porcije što onda ispadne ok. Inače izbegavam baš lokale sa mega porcijama jer, kao što rekoh u klipu, češće je u takvim situacijama lošiji kvalitet nego ne, ovde to nije slučaj. Sve je jako fino i pre svega ukusno. Obično se ne bavim cenama ali ovde to moram da napomenem, odnos cena/kvalitet teško da je pobediv. Ako tražite mesto gde možete, pre svega finom restoranu, da zasednete i ozbiljno da krkate ne tražite dalje, to je to. 😁
