#networkers2010 – restaurant day 2 – Sagardi Diagonal Mar

Another restaurant review, people are going to start to think all we do here is eat and drink (which is only partially true). The Diagonal Mar shopping centre is opposite the conference centre. It is a modern shopping centre and on the third floor is the food hall and cinema (didn't go and see a movie and skip a session – honest). All the usual suspects are up here – Burger King, the golden arches, dunkin donuts and a couple of places that serve beer. Outside at this level are a selection of restaurants, one of which is the Sagardi.

This is most definitely a meat house, vegetarians would probably not be best served here. So to the food – would you like steak or steak or paella with meat. So steak it was – two Tenderloin steaks and the house specially of rib steak. It must be noted here that the meat is excellent, but if you like a well done (ie burnt) piece of meat, you will be out of luck here. The tenderloins were medium and I have had rarer steak when asking for blue. This is not a criticism, I like my meat like that, but it may not be to everyone's tastes. All told, the meat was excellent, the rib steak was served as a sharing plate, and everyone enjoyed it.

Desert was equally as good. My truffles were an excellent finish to the meal, and the flaming apple pie (lit with calvados) went down a storm.

So – three nights – three excellent meals – what could top that. One more restaurant to write about (hint – its called the seven portes)
