    I used to get breakfast in a place off the gran via called mama ines, again lovely food, nice coffee and pleasant staff.

    One thing I would suggest, pick up a phrase book. I got one for 6 euro in chapters and used it every day. I found that people I talked to had little to no English so having the phrase book was very useful especially in restaurants.
