    Delicious Italian food with a Spanish flair can be found in this tiny Ruzafa spot (you definitely…read moreneed reservations). With an open kitchen concept and only seven or so tables, you really feel that you're being cooked authentic, tasty food only for you. We did the tasting menu and had three delicious main dish pastas along side perfectly chilled wine, and tapa style accoutrements. Everything was served on unique dishes or straight from the stove pans, definitely a unique experience. Bonus: la cuenta came in the cutest little mini shopping cart!

    My last meal in Valencia was sadly this one. Sadly because I wish I had discovered them earlier so…read moreI could have visited them every other day. The pasta was incredible! It was by far the best pasta I had in Valencia, and also in most other cities I have visited IN THE WORLD. I wish I had been hungrier and could have ordered the tasting menu, which is really worth it considering how many dishes you get to try, but I knew I didn't want to waste precious stomach space on appetizers and just wanted to fill my tummy with pasta. I was torn between the spaghetto chitarra, the taglioni tartufo, and the pappardelle with mushrooms (porcini), but I decided on the spaghetto since the pictures of this pasta was what had drawn me to this restaurant in the first place. This place is also the second place I have ever gone to that offers this type of pasta (it is nothing like your typical spaghetti so flush that from your mind). It really reminds me of a type of Asian egg noodle, especially the texture, and is really delicious and chewy. I'm so sad I am now at the airport about to fly away from this restaurant. Sad times.
