Mojito at "The Thor"
So no, don't travel to Nice to try their mojitos!! We have to say that drinks in general in the area were expensive (a beer costed easily 6€), but at least with some you have the guarantee that they'll be good (at least average) and not watery...
32 Course Saleya, Nice (France)
Price : 11€
So here comes the story: Some mojitop.com members travelled recently to the Côte d'Azur, and of course included mojito-trials in their program.
Here is the review of the first of them, that we tried in a bar in the pedestrian part of Nice.
About the mojito:
- large glass
- had lime- had mint
- ice was crushed- had rum?¿?
- had soda- had white sugar
and as extra it had some candy (as seen on the picture)
What it didn't have was any taste of mojito! It tasted like minted sweet water!!
For the price we payed, we would expect an extra-great mojito - but it wasn't. It didn't have much rum, also not enough mint, and we guess too much ice and soda - so the flavour was totally killed and made a watery mojito.
So no, don't travel to Nice to try their mojitos!! We have to say that drinks in general in the area were expensive (a beer costed easily 6€), but at least with some you have the guarantee that they'll be good (at least average) and not watery...
On the other side, the bar was very nice! It was partly ambiented as an irish pub but also had discording notes - so we couln't totally define what the story was there.
The very nice part was that on the upper floor there was a life band playing - and they were quite good! Especially remarcable performance of their singer - if anyone reads this post and knows the name of the band, please share it! Their selection of songs was very pleasant and we had a nice time there (despite the mojito!)
We tried another mojito on our trip..but that'll be reported in another post :)
Special thanks to Jiji for inviting mojitop to try mojitos in france - and for promoting us in Nice/Antibes :)
