Mundo – in its own culinary stratosphere

Mundo restaurant is located in the middle of Playa del Ingles (Gran Canaria, Spain). It is a well known hang out famous for its original design and mouth-watering cuisine. One waiter usually services all 20 tables and does so with flair. He is exceptionally helpful, happy to point out the best wine that goes with your order and in doing so does not necessarily peddle the most expensive stuff at the bottom of the wine list. The food is mainly Mediterranean with some oriental notes and a few delights added that are hard to classify. Try their fantastic starters like fish cakes or grilled shrimps with mint sauce. Our two favorite main courses are the spaghetti with meatballs (in a spicy and really yummy tomato sauce) and seared tuna with Thai noodles and some sweet chili. And if you are ready for a dessert treat that would not be out of place in the best Vienna coffee shop, indulge yourself in the strawberry meringue.

A three course meal with house wine is very much affordable. Enjoy!
