Bar Restaurante La Tralla — Restaurant in Almuñécar

I had been glad to get the last table for Saturday lunchtime. The place was packed an the waiters got really busy. They were very professional but one more waiter would be a good investment especially as several tables had Bogavante con Arroz which consumes more time as every customer needs to be served individually. We came here as we knew that menu contains some very good vegetarian dishes (likely not on purpose): Salad with goat cheese and salmon (not very good), Salmorejo ordered without ham, Parillada de verduras (vegetables), Patatas a lo Pobre (Fried Potatoes and eggs with onions.

If ordering paella, remember it takes a while to prepare. The staff seemed friendly enough, we sat out on the terrace, while it was a bit cold and windy the upper terrace is more sheltered so the better place to be. Some of our party had a different fish dish, and they found it to be a little salty for their taste. The winner for us was the pasta good...
