Monasterio De Piedra Restaurant: Local Cusine At Its Finest

by deecat

While staying at the Monastery, we ate in the restaurant run by the Monks of the Cistercian.It was quite an unique experience.There is a small bar on the second floor of the hotel for before dinner drinks. The restaurant itself has swords, guns, shields on the wall. There exists lots of massive wood and wrought iron pieces of furniture and trimming. The service is outstanding.But, it's the food that makes this restaurant one of the best.Known for their game meats and Lamb dishes, we decided to try them, and we were most pleased.It was a two-hour meal filled with good food, excellent wine, and delightful atmosphere. Wetried the local specialties.Allan, Sandy and I had the following:RabbitLamb ChopsLeg of LambSmoked TroutLocal Wine, which was superWonderful hot breadIt was a night to remember, and I remember it often.

Mont Sant Hosteria Restaurant: Traditional Valencian Cuisine

by deecat

While staying at the Hosteria Mont Sant, we had the opportunity to eat in the restaurant. What an experience!It is known for its Traditional Valencian Cuisine of carefully prepared rice, meat, fish and vegetable dishes The desserts are the best.The restaurant is located on the ground floor and decorated with intimacy in mind. there are private rooms, candlelight, and fresh flowers.It is elegant but by no means "stuffy". The service is just perfect, not too much "hovering" but attention to every detail. The romantic, quiet atmosphere is what we loved. A great place to sit and talk, enjoy a coffee, and an after dinner drink.The bread and salad were outstanding. Allan had excellent fish. We both loved our desserts.

Regional Cuisines: Food In Spain

by deecat

What I really enjoyed about Spanish Food was how varied it is.But in all of Spain, the food is highly seasoned and is served warm, not hot.Vegetables and salads are usually served as a first course. A staple of the Spanish diet is pulses--dried beans, lentils, or chick peas usually cooked together with pieces of sausage or other meat. For dessert, oranges, melons, date, grapes, or peaches are often served along with a piece of cheese. In the north, seafood is famous, including cod and hake from the Atlantic Ocean.Basque cooking is world famous. Its baby eels are thought to be a delicacy. In Asturias, the fabada [fah-BAH-dah] is cherished. It is a stew made from beans, sausage and other meats.In Aragon, there are many dishes with spicy sauces that use red peppers that are known as chilindrones [chil-in-DRON-nes]. They also use fine ham that is made in Teruel.Catalonia is where you can eat...

Rioja region and City of Jerez: Wines and Sherry in Spain

by deecat

I was surprised to learn that Spain has over 1.5 million acres of vineyards!. These vineyards are used in different ways. The dried grapes are made into raisins and currants. They are used mostly to make wine. Again, I was also surprised to learn that Spain is the third-largest producer of wine after France and Italy. The great thing about Spain is the variety of wines produced here due to the range of climates and landscapes in this wonderful country. Besides, the same kind of grapes grown in two different areas create very different tasting wines.In the north of Spain, there's a region called Rioja that produces a famous red wine named after the region, Rioja. This wines is stored for up to three years in special oak barrels and thus it has a strong flavor.It's one of the most popular wines in Spain.The white Ribeiro, traditionally served in little porcelain cups, is quite acidic. But,...

The Wonderful "Taste of Spain": Eating Patterns in Spain

by deecat

While in Spain, we loved the interesting assortment of ingredients. Some of the ingredients such as olives, dates, grapes, and fish are originally from Spain. Other ingredients were brought here by conquering nations such as the Moors. The Moors brought rice, lemons, oranges, and sugar from their African homeland. The Moors also introduced the technique of marinating fish in a strong vinegary sauce and the combination of sweet and spicy foods. The Spanish explorers brought back with them such ingredients as peppers, eggplant, tomatoes, potatoes, and chocolate.Since it's a hot country, the siesta is necessary, especially in the countryside. The people thus stay up longer at night; this long day has created the custom of eating five times instead of three times a day. The first of the five times to eat is, of course, the Desayuno [breakfast], which is a simple meal of a fresh crusty loaf...

Raffles: Truly friendly people and great food

by JOHN_CLERY

We have been to Benalmadena numerous times and this is the only restaurant that we go to every time. English run and owned. Sheilagh, the owner is fabously friendly. Dawn (and her daughters) the chef is amazingly warmhearted and helpful. This restaurant offers really great food at great prices. My wife and daughter love the Little Shoes. Home made curries, fish dishes, steaks - they are all a treat. They do a great breakfast as well. Closed on Saturdays. I absolutely love the home made curries. Just ask and Dawn will make it just to your taste.

El Roque: Best sea food in Tenerife

by dadda27

Had my last seafood lunch in tenerife after 4 years living there. Beautifull canarian food, mojo verde y rojo, escaldon, chopitos, calamares a la romana. Now, back in Uk, I cant wait to go back there. Nice white "vino del pais". After lunch, before the airport, a worm walk around the tiny and pretty village of Tajao. Always tipicals canarian "lapas" cooked in green mojo. Fresh calamari a la romana, best ever in all Spain.

Rebate: A gem in the middle of nowhere

by steve28

You really must try the restaurant REBATE at rebate It is advisable to book to get one ogf the seats overlooking the olive groves and lake with ducks and geese The service is very quick and be warded you never get cold or even warm food here as the plates are piping hot. The portions are a very good size and the setting is what makes this worth a visit. We both had the fillet of soles with a blue cheese sause on it and the vegetables were cooked to perfection

Jacks American Brasserie: Quality Food

by travelswithsteve

They say its location location that counts.This place has that.Located right in the middle of the marina at Benalmadena and at 1st floor level so you get the breeze and the views.Good solid American food served from an open plan kitchen.If its hot weather (and it can be) get a table right near the front - for as we all know open plan means no air-con so you really do need to seated front of front of house (thats at the front) to benefit from that breeze.They have one at Puerto Banus - but the staff just weren't the same (shame really) Potatoe SkinsSteaks
