http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37492 Order a small cerveza at the bar and you are asked 'tapas', then feast your eyes on the array of fresh seafood and meats for you to choose from free of charge with your drink. Choose from the sweetest clams and prawns, sardines, red mullet, pork fillets, chorizo sausage - the list goes on. All the food is cooked on the plancha by a Torres lookalike.
We sat there for three hours watching the Spanish football one night and we made our way through their entire tapas collection twice and all free with each drink ordered. The bill came to 25 Euros! Try and do that in the UK...]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37492 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37486 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37486 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37464 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37464 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37463 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37463 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37444 Advertised as an ‘artistic and socio-cultural project’, the venue has a small bar and performance space.

The meat pies are delicious, made with thin filo pastry sheets and chorizo and boiled egg in the meat filling to top it up!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37358 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37234 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37234 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37205 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37205 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37165 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37165 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37163 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37163 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37162 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37162 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37161 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37161 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37129 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37129 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37128 The food was so good, everything we ordered was wonderful. From a simple chicken kebab wrap to Harry's fish special we really enjoyed it all. It was great value for money. Yes, some of the drinks were a bit expensive but no more than anywhere else. After a lovely meal we really enjoyed going up to Harry's cocktail bar and trying out all the different cocktails. Again the staff there were brilliant and the cocktails were yummy.
Overall this was one of our favourite restaurants and deserves the excellent rating we have given it. As my title said great food, great surroundings and great staff. What more could you want?!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37128 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37041 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37041 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37034 Take in the intricate ceilings, stained glass and chandeliers, as you head up the sweeping marble stairs to the top floor. Then climb the rickety spiral staircase to the rooftop bar, which has to be one of the best places in the world to watch the sunset. Order a mojito and gaze out across the water at the stunning view.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37034 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37033 The evening clientele is young - office workers enjoying the late sun and having fun over a schooner or two.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37033 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37031 Drinks are around 500 baht, and after the heat and hustle below, sipping a cocktail among the skyscrapers is a great way to end the day.
Head there early evening to catch the sun setting over the Chao Praya River.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37031 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37021 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/37021
