Mia Dona – New Favorite Restaurant

Restaurant Type: Italian, Mediterranean

Our Rating: 8.5

Food: 9 • Service: 8 • Décor: 8 • Atmosphere: 8 • Price: 9

We just discovered this new modern Italian/Greek/Mediterranean restaurant in our neighborhood – Mia Dona. It’s located at 206 E 58th St, (between 2nd & 3rd Ave). Telephone: 212-750-8170
The Chef Michael Psilakis, he is also the Chef-owner of Kefi at Upper West Side and Anthos, in Midtown.

I would recommend the figs and grilled octopus for appetizers, gnudi and skate for main course and cannoli for dessert.

This was really good meal, everything was delicious and we are definitely coming back. And price for food was very good.

The Ronda village in Andalucia, Spain

Published by admin under Spain, Travel

Ronda, Puente Nuevo, Spain

Ronda is famous worldwide for its dramatic escarpments and views, and for the deep El Tajo gorge that carries the rio Guadalevín through its center. Visitors make a beeline for the 18th century Puente Nuevo ‘new’ bridge, which straddles the 100m chasm below. The Puente Nuevo is over 200 years old.

Ronda is also famous as the birthplace of modern bullfighting.

Most people visit Ronda by car or bus. The route through the Sierra Bermeja mountains is dramatic.
