La Font del Gall
We left La Font del Gall for our last night after chickening out of taking the children to Ca'n Costa.
I went into the restaurant in the morning to book a table but they were unable to fit us in outside so it was only the second time in the whole two weeks we ate inside.
Le Font del Gall is Scottish-owned and the menu has some delicious Scottish dishes that sounded lovely.
We both chose haggis with neeps and tatties to start and hubby went for the fish of the day which was hake, only to be told it had changed to tuna. Not liking this he joined me by choosing the spiced shoulder of lamb with garlic crushed potatoes and red cabbage.
The children were well-catered for and although my son was a bit restless at being cooped up they both behaved really well and we had a great time chatting to them for a change!
We were given freebie starters of a delicious pate served on a tiny slice of toast plus the usual bread and butter.
I was looking forward to my haggis starter as I am a big fan but it was disappointing - just three tiny blobs of haggis, potatoes and neeps and that was it! Not much taste either and I know I can certainly do better at home!
Anyway! On to the main course and it arrived beautifully presented with what looked like a slice of cardboard balanced on top of the "lamb". (It tasted like cardboard too).
When we started eating hubby looked at me and we both said, "This isn't lamb! It's beef!"
But we didn't say anything!
Our wine was a star - a delicious Enate Cabernet Sauvignon from Somontano which went with the "lamb" perfectly.
No desserts for us but the kids tucked into ice cream and we were given a small measure of Brandy Alexander as we paid the bill which was 89 euros including drinks and water.
