Restaurant Laurel – Cita – Cena – and maybe Cine

The perfect match on your second date: dinner and cinema.

Imagine you spent a great day on the beach and you meet someone you really like. Next day you meet again, you talk all day long and you still really like each other.

You start to get hungry but the restaurants won’t open before 20.30, except for Laurel, a cosy and delicious Argentinean/Uruguayan restaurant in the Eixample district nearby Placa Universitat.

Although there are plenty of Argentinean restaurants all over the city, this place offers the best empanadas (Argentinean pies) in all kinds of funky colors and flavors as a starter. Then you should go for some goat cheese salad (€ 7.00), some homemade pumpkin-walnut-pasta (€ 9.00), or share a delicious pizza (about € 10.00).

Also try the Argentinean red wine (Malbec) and you will be surprised of its flavor and quality.

Last but not least try the world’s famous divine and unbeatable Havana alfajor (caramel fudge filled cookie covered with either white or dark chocolate or meringue).

Filled up and happy, you and your date should move over to the Cinema Renoir Floridablanca right in front of Laurel for the 20:15 session.

On Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays you get a special “Cinema-dinner-deal” for 15 Euros including three empanadas of your choice, salad, drink and cinema ticket.
