• Review: Back in November 2014 my friends and I had the opportunity to spend a long weekend in Rīga. We’ve heard of Ze Donats before from other friends but we wanted to experience it by ourselves. The first sensation when you get inside is of a sweet smell (not to sweet, the nice sweet) and such a great atmosphere accompanied with newly roasted coffee. There are plenty of board games that you can ask too, and the music is not too loud, which makes of it a perfect place to relax, have fun with friends, read and/or study plus enjoy amazing Donuts. They are quite tasty and they have an amazing variety. They are in the Top 3 donuts I’ve tried in my life (and trust me here, I’m a donut-holic). I would totally recommend you to go there if you are into sweet things and would like to have a break or are looking for a refuge to spend few hours away from the cold winter in Latvia.

That was my first time in a vegetarian restaurant. Or at least the fist time I remember. Not that I’m always drunk when I go to restaurants or something like this, it’s just that I wasn’t aware of being in a vegstaurant (hehe, so funny how I make new words) before.

Anyways, this one was a great one. Very posh. Very tasty. I remember being there with my backpacker uniform (a.k.a. jeans, sweaty t-shirt after being the whole day walking, boots and a sweater) while everyone else was quite dressed up. It felt a bit awkward. But hey, not having the appropriate etiquette has never stopped me before. The place is located in the not very centre of Rīga, so you will have to walk for a while, but it’s totally worth it.

Depending on your budget, this might not be the place you want to go. It’s more expensive than the average, but the plates were very delicious. And I’m a carnivorous. Like, I truly love meat. But I didn’t miss it at all.

Overall I enjoyed it. Don’t really think I’d go back there (too expensive for student-like-budget) but if you are into this type of food and this type of place, you should give it a try!

Not so long time ago, when I was visiting Rīga (Latvia) with my friends, we were told to go to this very cozy pancake place, that has been working for a long long time. So we did. The place itself is a very chill and quite one. Located in the heart of Rīga, provides you the perfect refuge for the cold and rainy days. The pancakes were very tasty and cheap. You can get one starting from 0.60 €. The only thing I didn’t like very much is that they were already done when we got there. We were expecting something freshly cooked, not some prêt-à-manger crepe.

Probably we could have asked them to do one for us, but since we didn’t speak Latvian the communication between us was quite complicated.

Will definitely go back there this time accompanied by a local.
