• Best lunch in town

After a very enjoyable walking tour around the volcano Calderón Hondo in the morning, we decided to have lunch at this place of which we had read so many good reviews. When we arrived all tables were taken, but the owner told us he would have a free table in 30 minutes. So we went for a stroll in the surrounding streets and returned half an hour later. Indeed several tables were available now and we took the one in the shades. The menu features a large collection of fresh fruit juices/smoothies (around 5 euros) and several interesting vegetarian dishes (10 euros). We ordered 'el plato del día' and the beetroot lasagna with lentils, and also two juices. To be short: the positive reviews are all true. The food was very fresh and tasted delicious. The fruit juices came in good sized bottles and tasted just as good as the food. The accompanying bread with olives and nuts was home made and the best we've had all week. Service was quick and very friendly. The owner apologized because we had to 'wait' ten minutes on our food, but to us it didn't feel like waiting at all, because the whole place has a very nice and relaxed atmosphere. Only downside: Baobab closes at 17.00, so for dinner you have to go elsewhere.
