Donostia

My husband and I took a two week trip to Europe (London, Copenhagen, and Paris) and ate our way through each wonderful city. We had many delicious meals along the way. Our meal at Donostia was one of our favorites. The meal was delicious. We had the Jamon croquetas, Jabugo, Ensalada, Rubia, and the Basque Cheesecake. We LOVED the cheesecake. It was the BEST cheesecake I have ever eaten. It may be the best dessert I have ever eaten. It was the perfect texture: smooth, creamy, not too sweet, and the charred top was the perfect compliment to the cheese. We liked it so much, we went back three nights later for another slice. I will be thinking about that Cheesecake for a very long time. We sat at the bar and had the best view of the kitchen. It was enjoyable to watch the two chefs and see how efficient they were in such a small space. The Head Chef was very patient and kind towards the Sous Chef, who we thought may have been new. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. I hope to return to London soon. We will definitely make a visit back to Donostia when we return.
