It’s been on our list of places to try for quite a while and eventually we got around to visiting The Chippy La Marina for lunch. I have been told we should try here for a while, I also know when we visited Our Plaice that I had a couple…

Jonsons La Finca A Lovely Spot For Coffee
We were up at the top end of Algorfa on Saturday morning and had an hour to spare, so we stopped off at Jonsons La Finca for a brew. Well, I say a brew thanks to the people on the next tale eating breakfast, which smelled lovely, we had a…

Nethy House Cafe & Rooms: Wow
What? Wait… Where? I hear you say. Nethy House Cafe & Rooms isn’t in Spain—it’s in Scotland! How right you’d be too. Soph and I recently took a trip there to attend a wedding. The wedding itself was in Grantown-on-Spey (more on that later), but we decided to take a…

Los Verdes Catral Thai Night
We booked to go to Los Verdes Catral a couple of weeks back when they were advertising their Thai evening menu. For those who know me quite well, Thai food is one of my favourites. The fact this is being served just down the road, made it a no-brainer really….

Tuck In Chippy For Proper Fish & Chips
After seeing advertising for Tuck In Chippy on Montebello, we had already added them to our list. It’s been a while since we had fish and chips out here, but as it was Friday and we were waiting to hear back from the specialist about one of our dogs, we…

Quesada Fish And Chips Great Value
It’s Fryday 2nd August and we decided to pop across to Quesada Fish And Chips, as we were in town anyway. We filled the car up at the Ballenoil petrol station and as it was approaching an early lunch time, we said we wanted fish & chips today. As we…

Tommys Bar Benimar: An Awesome Breakfast!
For whatever reason, we have never written a review about Tommys Bar Benimar despite calling in countless times, either for a quick drink or something to eat or when we attended the Nutty Boy Chris Packett’s ska music night last year. Today, we were in the area and were going…
