On this visit there were three three-course menus: the turistica for €14.50 featuring paella, del día also €14.50 with a focus on fresh grilled fish, and the executive. I forget what was on that. All kick off with a pile of fresh, mixed salad leaves – radicchio, frissee, mache, tomatoes, tuna – served with good olive oil and vinegar on the table, plus salt infused with fennel seeds (perfect with fish), and a good baguette.
The fish is whatever the catch of the day is. In this case, sardines caught in the bay, a huge pile of them piled up like a pitched roof, their heads already removed, hot and crisp from the grill and served with nothing but a wedge of lemon and a few green beans. Dessert is fruit, ice-cream or a slab of Manchego. Simple, elegant and more than fairly priced.
The menus, by the way, are also available at night, but only if you eat indoors. If you want the terraces then you need to go a la carte, in which case I’d recommend the rock mussels al vapor, sardines marinated in vermut, scallop paella and the pan-fried John Dory. Expect to spend.
