We have often walked past La Casita Azul, which is a restaurant rather than a bar/cafe, and finally booked to have lunch last weekend. The owners are French (fresh oysters were on offer on the day we went) and offer a slightly different menu from other local restaurants - and it made a very welcome change. We chose from the two-course menu del dia (I think it was 17.50€). My husband had melon (sweet and ripe) and jamon (tasty) followed by carpaccio of beef, which was a huge serving of meat that he said 'melted in the mouth' with parmesan slices. This came with a side of chips - they were curls of new potato and they really were excellent - hot and crispy. I had Salad Nicoise followed by salmon served with rice and a confit of vegetables. Both dishes were very good. My husband then chose the homemade apple and lemon tart, which he declared was 'absolutely first class'. As he really enjoys his puddings he is a tough critic to please!

Vincent and his lovely wife speak French, English and Spanish - and probably others languages too - and are very welcoming. We will go back one evening to have a cosy winter dinner.
