If you’re looking for somewhere a little less Spanish and a little more French, this may be the restaurant for you. It’s right next to the Micalet, the famous bell tower with the best view of Valencia in all the city. The most popular items on the menu here, not so surprisingly, are the crepes; they have many salty and sweet varieties, like the vegetable crepe and the chocolate crepe. There are also salads, cookies, and ice cream.
