Danone – the French yoghurt giant – runs a restaurant ! Actimel, Activia … their brands.
We were looking for a place for lunch in a business area of Barcelona (Av. Diagonal near Pl. Francesc Macià) and came across this place. It was around 12ish and it was pretty empty because the Spanish don’t eat lunch until 2:30pm – it is the norm.
Obviously, it is a place designed to showcase its history, innovation and products. A vintage delivery van was on display – never knew yoghurt was sold or delivered that way. Somehow I expect the Swiss would have something like that.
By the look of the white spa-like decor, the food was expected to be light and healthy. It wasn’t that light but tasty it was. We really enjoyed our meal there.
Cute presentation of a risotto. Nouveau …
They even had a meat-and-potato dish that suited me.
Dessert, of course, was made with yoghurt. But I ate it before taking a picture.
They also sell different kinds of yoghurt (frozen, drinks, etc) with many choices of toppings. Wish they open one near us.
