Interesting Jophn - is the 'new GC' already re-opened?
Jon By the way been over in Portugal a lot recently and searched a lot of Supermarkets including Continente for that delicious Portuguese white wine we were drinking in France but not so far seen it. Can you confirm the name so I can get a couple of bottles in for Caths arrival. |

GC never closed just the girls finished last week. Kenny and Pedro still behind the bar. The cooks still in the kitchen and Rick still doing the Quiz and Sunday lunch. 50 there last Sunday only 10 or so booked but the new proprietors were there glad handing and buying drinks. One went off to Marbella Monday to find a Chef so that could be interesting. They say no changes for 15 days from Sunday but everyone has to work super hard until then when they may have reinforcements.

That's good, no disruption of service. I heard they were closing first. Also that the owners have realised the business opportunity there and are prepared to get stuck in. Bodes well. Dare I hope to get excited?

They really do seem to want to be part of the local scene. They have taken a short term rent on "Lomas". It seems one of the trio is a restauranter from Madrid. Maybe that's the one who went to Marbella to find a chef.
See you in a couple of days.... Jon |
Re: Restaurants
I am looking at google earth, am I right in thinking that the Brazilian restaurant in santa luis has been flattened or have I got my bearings mixed up, if I am correct does anybody know if it has moved or just closed down?

If you read the print on the bottom of google earth it says 2013 if you look closely you can see a crane close by but if you go on google maps it is still there

Re: Restaurants
Had a nice morning in the beautiful Laguna plaza yesterday. Coffee first and a chat. There was a nice buzz going on and a beautiful day. Started around 11:30
Then on exiting we stopped at the new (ish) Tapanegra (sp) ... on the corner site of the old Barclays bank ( I think) and directly opposite the Town hall, with a patisserie next to it. The have a promo of beers for 75c each, every day - but on Mondays 50c all day. 25cl. Looks nice and clean and also an extensive montatido menu. Starting at just 1:20 for a good selection e.g serrano ham and queso curado. Then some at 1:50 and 'super montatido's' (SM) at 2E. We didn't have one, but previously a super montatido is actually quite filling. E.G 2E for an SM of Lomo+Serrano+ queso curado+tomato.. hmmm... So on a Monday after a belly bustin' weekend, a lovely place to go to have a couple of jars and a SM... THREE euros! Or go crazy and have 2 SM's for a fiver :tounge_smile: Fantastic pricing for such a premier location.... Jon |
Re: Restaurants
Sounds great Jon, thanks.
