English term or phrase:the WOK
Commentaire sur un hôtel espagnol :
Restaurant male staff not very friendly.... Visit ***the WOK*** over the road you will love it... Take your own bottle of wine in for dinner, it will be better than the 8 euro vinegar they sell...
J'ignore si le WOK en question a quelque rapport avec la phrase qui précède et celle qui suit... Toutes les hypothèses sont bienvenues !
Explanation: This could be a restaurant called the WOK, or it could be shorthand for "workers' caff" . Only guessing though. Are there any other words like this in the text?

J'avais pensé à un acronyme à cause des majuscules, ou à un type de restaurant asiatique... mais le nom propre est effectivement l'hypothèse la plus plausible. Merci à tous (ciao Dominique !)
cela peut être simplement le nom d'un restaurant - je fais une partie de mes plats vietnamiens et chinois dans un wok - un genre de poêle a fond rond, fait main, que les Chinois afectionnent et qui cuit merveilleusement bien
sounds like the name of the restaurant across the street??
