Had the Sarsuela, alt sp. zarzuela, aka Catalan bouillabaise. It is a fish stew unlike bouillabaise which tends to be overly perfumed with herbs. This is the kind of seafood stew that you dream of. Large buttery whole squid, a transverse block of tuna, scampi, mussels, clams in stew redolent of the sea -pure umami. It makes you regret not being born Catalan and eating this day and night. Paella was okay. Grilled Turbot was okay. The stew was special. I finished the damned thing by myself and could not bring myself to share it. Knock it down with a liter of Sangria, feel...
Read moreWe had a pleasant lunch here when we came down to the beach at around 11am. We were seated at a table in the back by the sand and enjoyed the scenery with coffees while waiting for them to begin serving hot food at about 12:30.

Una fideua recalentada al horno de aspecto negro, fideos que parecian una sopa, gambas peladas congeladas de super, sipia congelada (recordemos que estamos en la costa) y mejillones sin cascara iguales que los preparados de fideua del super de al lado de mi casa. Quando me he ido a quejar, me han dicho que voy de lista, que solo como fideua en mi casa y que no tengo ni idea. He comido muchas fideuas en mi vida, y he pagado siempre sim problema y dejando propina. En este caso he reclamado pagar solo lo que ponia en la carta y no he dejado ni un centimo de propina. Me han dicho que no vuelva pero definitivamente, esta clarissimo que no pensava volver de todas...
