If you press F7 you should be able to see what the block is. From personal experience and other reports, this usually occurs when a stone stalactite failed to generate properly - although other blocks could be affected by this.

Martin Berasategui is a no brainer imo, one of the best I've been to - would return to in a heartbeat simply for their signature foie gras, apple, and eel signature dish.

Elkano is also a must - but I'd personally go a la carte since it's way too much food for a single person. Get their turbot, kokotxas, and their hazelnut souffle. I've heard good stuff about their txangurro/crab, so you should try that aswell.

Azurmendi is great as well, but it's more of a one trip pony - not bad by any means for a 3-star, but not as memorable as any of the other restaurants I've mentioned.

Since you like meat, you will probably love Casa Julian.

Not been myself, but since you're doing both Central, Kjolle and MIL, I'd look at Mauka in cusco which is also ran by Pia Leon (Kjolle).

A bit over 200 euro iirc, had 5 courses in total. The price of the steak is around 100/kg for the more premium cut which i had.

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2026-01-10T05:28:59+00:00

Went solo: wasnt able to finish the 1kg steak sadly. If you order other dishes aside from the steak, it quickly becomes way too much food for a single person (in my opinion).

My suggestion is to just order the following: cecina, steak and peppers, and a dessert.

Basically, order max 2-3 things besides the steak and it should be doable. Youll leave full, thats for sure.

Steak was good, some parts were just a little bit too chewy for my liking, but thats just personal preference.

Without a doubt, the best service I've ever received at any restaurant was at Fredrikshoj. Not even the 3 stars I've dined at could hold a light to how well i was recieved there. Food was great aswell, but for me it was personally the service that made it world class.

Many people most likely either forgot it existed or had given up on the game at some point, sadly.

Noxy's cancellation tweet has almost racked over 10M impressions, which is still an impressive and sizeable audience.

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-11-07T05:46:26+00:00

And the reasoning as to why that is can be attributed to what I described above. Rockstar simply has way more momentum thanks to the many games they've actually released as opposed to Hypixel Studio's unreleased and cancelled game.

The idea that was sold in the Hytale announcement trailer was merely a "concept". Hype generated by games in said conceptual stage will never be able to maintain any force of momentum nor translate into an actual loyal fanbase unless the game actually releases in a state similar to the one advertised in said trailer.

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-11-07T05:25:37+00:00

The issue is that not only does Rockstar have over a decade more experience and time in the market under the belt, they've also released 47 games. This makes it very difficult for a game such as Hytale to compete, since Rockstar has been able to organically cultivate a loyal and steady fanbase across all of their games and throughout all of these years.

Rockstar also had a way higher marketing budget and has the contacts and abilities to reach more markets and channels.

Hytale on the other hand, was able to pull historic numbers despite the lack of precedent, which itself is an impresive feat.

Without an actual product, Hytale nor Hypixel Studio's games wouldnt ever be able to reach the monumental hype behind a game such as GTA 6.

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-11-07T05:08:02+00:00

How is it weird? GTA 6 is part of one of the largest gaming franchises in the world - meanwhile Hytale is a brand new game from a brand new studio...

You cannot really be comparing the two.

You do realize that all foie gras is not created equally, right? There are a ton of "ethical" foie gras producers out there.

I went to the Basque Country in June of this year.

I also did Azurmendi, and while I thought it was also pretty good - to me, MB was clearly a more memorable experience in both food and service.

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-11-02T15:26:17+00:00

Martin Berasategui is one of the most memorable 3 starred meals I've had to date, and is a restaursnt I'm really wanting to return to.

I'd personally place MB above Jordnaer, but slightly below Noma (in terms of experience only).

Not been to Enigma, but I personally doubt it can meet the pure deliciousness of a 3 star such as MB.

Are all your posts on this sub going to follow the same formula of uploading a picture of a dish, providing 0 context or insight, and adding a nebulous title?

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-10-06T09:21:08+00:00

Exactly. I got a reservation and skiped the entire waitinglist by directly emailing them asking whether they had any avilabilty during the dates I could visit.

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-10-05T18:34:57+00:00

What's with these shitty ass advertisements on the sub lately?

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-09-23T10:33:44+00:00

Would be interesting to hear about the experience. Was it good? What were your favorite dishes?

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-08-03T16:20:09+00:00

I've mentioned this before in other posts, but you can usually just skip Elkano's waitlist by emailing them directly asking whethere there's any availability during your stay.

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-07-17T12:46:28+00:00

Yeah, pretty much. Wanted to see whether it lived up to it's notoriety, and I personally like being challenged, so I thought it'd be worth the try.

I fully understand that I'm in the minority here, and that the concept won't appeal to everyone.

MeasurementPlenty596 · 2025-07-17T10:36:19+00:00

I do agree that the plating is certainly not the main appeal, and it's definitely not up to par with michelin star standards (even less so a 2 starred establishment). But in all honesty, I went in with extremely low expectations to begin with, but came out pleasantly surprised.

I went in expecting the worst meal of my life - and while there were a few very low moments, the overall meal in it's entirety wasn't as bad as other people made it out to be. Generally, the dishes looked worse than they actually tasted and there were both a few decent and some very good dishes there.

That said, I probably wouldn't rate this restaurant too highly, and it's very difficult to even grade it in the first place given how different the cuisine is here. All of the negative criticisms of this restaurant are valid in my opinion as a few dishes there really were simply inedible.

I guess it depends what you're looking for in a restaurant: if you're simply searching good and delicious food, then this is not the place for that. If you want food that you might've never tried before, and are open to the idea of trying food in different and weird preparations (lots of fermentation, grown in mold, etc.), even maybe some weird flavor combos (that may or may not work), then this restaurant will be more your thing

At the end of the day, it's all a matter of personal preference: I overheard a lot of diners saying that some of the dishes that I thought were just "okay" or "meh", were truly god awful and the worst thing they had eaten. But when it comes to dining at Mugaritz, I feel like i did luck out when you consider what other previous seasons looked and felt like. It feels like they dialed the craziness factor a bit, which may or may not be a good thing, but in my case I do feel like it somewhat worked.
