Food Scene

Fantastic sushi at great prices. Don't let the line scare you, a line until the door is not unusual but usually means about a 15 minutes wait. It's great and original because instead of classic sushi they serve original maki combinations. Therefore it's very accessible even if you don't like sushi that much. Pretty cheap too, there's a lunch formula for which you get maki's for 10 euros and at night you'll probably pay 12 euros for the same.
