I dont think so

Hardly. I have been mostly supportive of people who have come on here and said they wanted to start a business in Spain. But, let's see:

- Off the beaten track
- Gimmicky concept
- Unfamiliar foods

Who is this place targeting? You think the Spanish are going to suddenly start lining up to eat kangaroo steaks served by hopping waiters? I hope it survives, but I doubt it.

flame me if you want,but try the marina bar on the port,good home cooked food,cheap,and good service,but only go on sun/tue/thurs and sat when the service improves as my wife works then
if you want a good steak go ponchos
good breakfasts in fuengirola,plan b and fools and horses
if you want to know where not to go(more important imho)i could tell you 50 places alone in fuengirola,probably not allowed to tho

Ponchos is fantastic, very good Argentinian steak, i do find the fact that you dont get anything served with it unless you order potatoes, mushrooms etc and pay additional charges rather tiresome but yes i agree ponchos is superb. Please dont dismiss Ribs and Roo until you have tried it......as for the comment about the Spainish going......well there is no chance you are correct, they are so damned boring, loud, corrupt, ignorant species of mankind that they wouldnt recognize a good bounce if they fell over it, the only bounce they know are cheques :rofl: They certainly wouldnt appriciate a carton of Um-bongo. ( bunch of third world peasants !! )

Well done, seriously, well done... you come along to recommend somewhere we all suspect you have a connection with and you go and do this! Well done.

Is this a joke or is there actually a place called 'Ribs and Roo'? I find that quite hilarious!:rofl:

On a serious note Mrs King and I went to ribs and roo this morning for breakfast,Mrs king had the boomerang breakfast and to be honest it has been coming back all day due to the amount of onions they use,and by the way DQ i am not amused that they hop to our table with both legs tied together(Health and Safety):thumbdown:
