They offer a daily lunch menu (Menu del día) for €6.50 which includes salad, soup, main, and dessert.

Varied Salad
salad
A plain fresh salad of lettuce, colored bow tie pasta, cucumbers, carrots and olives.

Celery Soup
soup
Starchy and potatoey thick, with a mild celery flavor. If you like celery, it’s warm and soothing.

Vegetable Cannelloni
canelones
Big pasta stuffed with mashed veggies in a veggie flavored thick cream sauce and crunchy baked cheese topping.

Vegetable Croquettes with Boiled Vegetables
croquetas
Slightly sweet, crispy ball of rice and veggies that is sort of nutty inside. Soft boiled potatoes, carrots, and string beans and a spoonful of mayonnaise.

Lemon pudding
lemon pudding
I always forget that pudding here means some flan type dessert and not a creamy cup of pudding. I normally don’t like these, but this one was actually pretty good. Sugary sweet, and just the right amount of tangy lemon and vanilla yogurt flavor in a soft flan form.

Apple compote with fresh cream
apple compote
Soft apples, more like a really chunky sweet apple sauce, with fresh unflavored whipped cream and sesame seeds on top.

Eating healthy and cheaply makes you feel clean and good!
