Old-Town-Riga-Latvia

A weekend getaway in Latvia. Restaurants in Riga. To eat, or not to eat? That is the question

If you’ve never been to Latvia and you wish to try something local, then I’d suggest visiting restaurant chain Lido. They offer homemade style food; affordable and tasty. And that’s where I go when I want to have a homey meal.

A weekend getaway in Latvia. Riga

I was trying my best to look at Riga through the eyes of a tourist, but I failed. The streets just looked too familiar, and there were too many memories related to the city. I grew up here. I went to school here, college, university… I was not born in Riga, but I have spent most of my life here. So, no matter how hard I try to change my thoughts, I continue seeing Riga as my hometown and not as a touristic destination.
