A floating breakfast place within a rather cool gallery. Great coffee and an excellent bacon and avocado sandwich, just remember to ask for it on sourdough.

This is home cooking at it's best. Xabi is a passionate chef and his Spanish cuisine is worth writing home about. Good bio-dynamic wine options too.
