El Modernista
Finding a new “Good Food” place is part of our journey’s challenge.
Restaurante / Cafeteria “El Modernista” is one such place - only recently opened and still to be discovered even by the locals.
Chef “Mike” - a Lebanese American who now is in charge of this small Tapas Bar just off the southern beaches of Barcelona - is able to draw on many years of experience creating some of the new style of “Tapas”. It’s virtually anything goes from the original traditional Anchovy, Sardines etc to tasty sensations using potatoes, chickpeas, beef, turkey and so much more - what is fresh today and what ever is fresh from the mind and hands of a chef like Mike is like small morsels of food from heaven - in this place served very professionally by the lovely [Russian import] “Inna” who has learned the hospitaly trade well and is eager to please the diner with food & drink.
We left the choices of dishes to Mike and Inna on both evenings and we enjoyed everything of the wide variety placed on our table to be shared by all 4 of us. We wish the team - owner and staff - all the success they deserve. - We wish Mandurah and Western Australia could attract such high quality creators of fine casual food and service.
