Here is my little story... it was very hot, so my kids (3 & 6) wanted an ice cream (also myself to be honest). So they go very excited and choose the ones they wanted, and being kids... proceed to open them. When I wanted to pay, I showed my card... just to know that for an issue with the system that day, they could only take cash (make sure you always carry some in Sardinia). I didn't have any... so I really didn't know what to do. And the ice creams were partially open (needless to say about the anxiety of my kids to get them). I felt really bad, as I would have to return them, and no ATM near by.

Clearly taking advantage of previous good ratings, but this is not what it looks in the pictures (most of which are from over a year ago now). Strongly advise to...
Read moreUna sorpresa davvero gradita, dopo una mattinata sulla splendida insenatura della spiaggia di Osala di Dorgali, ci è venuta fame e, allora si è presa in considerazione l'idea di prendere un panino in questo chiosco. Una volta la iniziano a passarci davanti piatti davvero invitanti, primi, secondi, insomma decidiamo di sederci... Nel menù troviamo primi e secondi della tradizione sarda, prendiamo un'insalata di mare e un filetto di tonno a modo mio. Pesce freschissimo, ma il filetto di tonno mi lascia di stucco, strepitoso davvero! Prezzi economici considerando che si mangia praticamente a 50 metri dalla spiaggia! Gestione familiare, servizio...
