I will keep a long story very short.
This restaurant is next to our hotel. My son really wanted to try some sea food, crab specifically.

They'd been let down by lamb kebab on the menu not being served anymore, had curry instead, was OK but there is an Indian next door for curry! Toilets were fine. Fair bit of parking...
