Have you ever had a sudden urge to read an art magazine from 1997, or a book of German poetry in its original language? Well, at Nijinski you easily can. The beauty of this secondhand bookshop is that you never know what you will find, so it allows you to pick up something on a whim, start reading, then buy it at a very good price.
I love the amazing selection of books in various languages and the plants and comfy chairs, which make it feel like the living room of a very intellectual friend. I have never managed to come in here and leave empty-handed. You can try, but you'll miss out on something weird, wonderful and unexpected.
As a meat lover, I absolutely enjoyed the dishes based on Iberic pork, including the spare ribs and the Jiang Rou Bao, which literally melted in my mouth.
