Many of the plates are vegan, too, and all of the food is ecologically sourced. Benimaclet offers several amazing restaurants that are vegetarian-friendly, and this is one place that I wish I had learned about sooner!

"Good, but not good enough to go back." There are so many good Italian restaurants in Valencia that serve better pizza, better pasta, that it makes this a hard place to put on my favorite list. Give it a try, it is solid, just did not leave us with a need to go back.

One of the great vegetarian restaurants of the world…read more Prices are not high. Two people had a meal to remember forever for 42 Euros. But this was Haute Vegetarian Cuisine suitable for Michelin stars. * * * The menus change frequently - and there is not a lot of choice on the menu. You get what the cook is cooking today and that's the beginning and the end of it. But the beginning and the end of it here - is the Alpha and Omega of great cooking. * * * So what did we have? 1) A cauliflower and carrot soup that will make you adore cauliflower. The cauliflower served to me as a child was unspeakably awful. It may not have counted as child abuse. It certainly counted as cauliflower abuse. At Les Maduixes, they serve the Cauliflower of Cauliflower dreams. Eat one bowl of Cauliflower Soup out of the Golden Cauliflower bowl And be guaranteed happiness and golden treasure forever. 2) A pique-boca of homemade hummus served in an endive leaf with two colors of sesame seed and an alt pesto. My mouth was piqued, oh yes, oh yes. I have no idea where they get their endive ... But that was the Cary Grant of endive. 3) Vegetable croquettes minimally sauced. Vegetable croquettes are usually heavy vegetable lumps in the hands of the wrong vegan cook. These were clouds of fluffy wonderfulness. 4) A veggie lasagna with soy yogurt as the "cheese" part of the filling. Yogurt totally totally belongs on lasagna. It makes it a light refreshing and lively dish. Why eat Grandma's lasagna bomb, and then be capable of doing nothing after lunch except watching football ... When you can have a sprightly lasagna with yogurt, And do handstands between the main course and dessert? 5) A quiche with soy mascarone. Mascarone makes everything wonderful - never mind the source of the milk. 6) A zero sweet chocolate pie. Time to renew your relationship with unsweetened baking chocolate. This was Heathcliff, the brooding lord of the haunted manor next door, sweeping you away to the moors in the rain for the lovemaking that only a dark poet can provide. There was a long time between every forkful. My eyes never opened. 7) A "carrot cake" that was made of carrot, just like the server said, but for all intents and purposes was a lemon creme cake. You have never had a lighter carrot cake in your life. 8) A vegan strawberry sorbet - but lots of people make vegan strawberry sorbets. A dish that happily brought us back to earth after we had spent lunchtime in our Magic Galleon Sailing the Seas of Dreams. * * * So how is Les Maduixes? It's okay. * * * So is Utopia.

I must first qualify that I am not a vegetarian, and while preferring meat of some sort with my…read moremeals, I do appreciate good vegetarian cooking. Les Maduixes is a very cozy restaurant, with a nice ambiance. I thought the service was excellent. Regarding the food, for starters I had the Crema de boniato, zanahoria, which was quite nice. For the main I had wholemeal noodles with tomatoes, eggplant and goat cheese, and for desert the carrot cake. The noodle dish was good, but I guess I was expecting something I would classify as 'really good'. As my wife is a fan of vegetarian food, and because it is so close to our flat, I am sure we will give Les Maduixes another go in the near future. I hope to be more impressed on the next visit.
