We booked into The Pines Benijofar for lunch, as we wanted to try somewhere we hadn’t visited before. We did the Benijofar Tapas Trail last year, but sadly, we never made it to the Pines. However, after a lovely lunch today, we’ll be sure to try them on the Tapas…

Great Value Fish & Chips – The Dog And Firkin Catral
We called at the Dog And Firkin Catral to try their Wednesday fish and chips offer. At 5.95€, this is a great price, but was the quality up to standard? We had had fish and chips several times from the Firkin Fryer back when it was open, so we had…

Tremendous Taco Tuesday At Varkk Bar & Kitchen
Once again, we went back to Varkk Bar & Kitchen at La Fuente, Villamartin, where we previously had a Sunday lunch. Though tempted by the menu del dia, we decided to make an evening of it and try their Taco Tuesday menu. Finally, after being away for three weeks on…

Triple Brew Rojales – Perfection On A Plate
I owe a massive apology to the guys at Triple Brew Rojales, as we have eaten here several times and never got around to leaving a review. So, back on track, and it’s Saturday 23rd December, 20c in the sun, and we had booked a table for lunch for the…

Patagonia Steak House Quesada: Go With Empty Stomach!
We visited the Patagonia Steak House on a Saturday evening, and this had been on our list for quite some time. To be honest, it was a toss-up between this location and the one at El Raso, but we eventually decided on the Quesada restaurant. We booked an early table,…

Alma Bar And Cafeteria, Quesada for Lunch
We wanted to reserve a table for the Saturday night music evening at Alma Bar And Cafeteria, so popped in to confirm our place and decided, as it was lunchtime, to grab a bite to eat. Despite the strong gusts of wind, the place was busy with most of the…

A Tale Of 3 Tostadas Con Jamon Serrano: Which is The Best?
We decided to do another tale of 3 tostadas, but this time we opted for tostadas con jamon serrano. As nice as the traditional tostada con tomate is, it makes a nice change to add cheese or ham just to mix things up a bit. This time, we ventured out…

Smoky BBQ Dolores – A Good Burger, But Would We Go Back?
We’d seen the Smoky BBQ Dolores mentioned recently, and as we both love a good BBQ offering, we decided to pop across as we were just down the road in Almoradi. There were four tables outside, but none were in use, possibly, we thought, as they are aside a road…

A Tale Of Three Tostadas Con Tomate: Which Came Out on Top?
We visited 3 locations in Dolores and had Tostadas Con Tomate but which came out on top?

Daniela Cafeteria Ciudad Quesada: Friendly Service and Great Food.
We were in the neighbourhood doing some shopping and decided to call into Daniela Cafeteria Ciudad Quesada with the intention of just having a quick drink. This is a wonderful little place, easy to find, and we have been several times. We’d often call for a drink and then pop…
