Finding a good place to eat in during your holidays can be a bit of a challenge. The first night was really hit or miss and myself and my boyfriend were walking around lovely streets of Nice to find a good place. Well, it was a miss. The food was average or maybe even worse. So the second night we rather consulted our options with concierge in our hotel. And man that was such a good thing to do.

He recommended this fabulous place founded by Luc Salsedo who is a local and is a michelin star chef. The place was exactly as described. It is very small but everything is very fresh and they change the menu every ten days. The menu is not big but enough to chose from. My personal favourite was the starter which was flower zucchini coated and fried and it was accompanied by mouthwatering sauces and vegetables. However the other courses were super delicious as well and I was very pleased with their service as well.

We arrived very early (yes we are Europeans not French) and after a while the restaurant was full of other Europeans. Lol.

And now I know why. This place was just fantastic.

 If you are ever in Nice you should definitely stop by for a dinner as you will not be disappointed.

Najit dobrou restauraci na dovolene muze byt obcas pekny orisek. Prvni vecer v Nice jsme proste chodily naslepo v malebnych ulickach a po dlouhem hledani jsme proste vesly do restaurace, ktera byla v zaveru podprumerna. A tak druhy vecer po porade s recepcnim u nas v hotelu jsme se rozhodli vyzkouset restauraci Luc Salsedo.

Luc pochazi z Nice, ale pracoval dlouho v restauracich s Michelin hvezdickou a pote si otevrel tuhle malickou, ale vybornou restauraci. Menicko se meni kazdych deset dni a je upraveno podle toho, co je zrovna v sezone. Vsechny suroviny jsou cerstve a udajne nemaji ani lednicku. A opravdu jsem byla tak nadsena, ze jsem se rozhodla napsat cely post. Menu neni moc dlouhe a z kazdeho chodu mate na vyber tri jidla. Ja i pritel jsme byly nejvice nadseni z predkrmu, coz byla smazena cuketa, nebo abych to upresnila kytka z cukety. A to bylo doplnene zeleninou a vynikajici omackou. Jeste ted se mi sbihaji sliny. 

V restauraci jsme byly asi prvni nebo druzi hoste (to vite Evropane) a za chvili bylo misto zcela plne (dalsi Evropani). Haha 

Pokud se nekdy chystate do Nice, tak sem urcite zajdete, protoze nebudete urcite tak zklamani jako ja prvni vecer.

You know I am a big brunch lover. Give me weekend, good food and friends and I am very happy girl. On Sunday I had a date with my lovely friend Margita and she told me about this trendy spot in East London Hot Box. The website does not tell you much so was not sure what to expect. When we arrived we were welcomed by girls at reception and the whole space is very typical for East London…it has got that steel industrial look so it perfectly fits in Shoreditch area. The menu was varied but it was hard to imagine what things are so I just ordered what I saw on a table next to us. That is so me…that looks good so I will have that. LOL.

I enjoyed the food very much but they really need to work on their service. I have not felt very welcomed the whole time and the staff was rushing us to order quickly, to pay quickly and it is very difficult to chill and enjoy your food when people force you to do something.

The space is quite small so I understand the whole concept is about turning around lot of people within two hours however it is weekend so please let your customers just enjoy their time there.

 Vite, ze miluju brunche a mohla bych travit vikendy s prateli obklopena dobrym jidlem. To mi staci ke stesti (tedy alespon nekdy hehe). A v nedeli jsem se vydala s kamaradkou Margitou do vychodniho Londyna do jednoho trendy mista – Hot Box. Na webovych strankach toho moc nemaji, takze  jsem nevedela, co mam cekat. Pokud trochu znate tuto cast Londyna, tak vas neprekvapi, ze vetsina mist je navrhnuta ve velmi industrialnim stylu a design je velmi strohy, vsude kolem hodne kovu a tak to bylo i v Hot Boxu. Menu bylo docela pestre, ale nemela jsem predstavu, co si pod urcitymi nazvy mam predstavit, tak jsem si objednala to co jsem videla u sousedu na stole. Nejlepsi taktika ne?

Jidlo mi chutnalo, ale vadil mi hodne servis. Protoze se jedna o docela popularni a male misto, tak se snazi aby zakaznici rychle snedli jidlo a uvolnili stul a to nam davala obsluha hodne najevo. Prakticky vas nuti si rychle objednat, rychle zaplatit a vypadnout.

Mozna to byla nase konkretni obsluha, ale prestoze jidlo bylo vyborne, tak jejich servis me docela odradil od toho, abych se sem nekdy vratila.

Pokud vam tohle nevadi, tak Hot Box urcite vyzkousejte…je to takovy bruch spot, co serviruje vajicka s Mexickym nadechem.
