Lunch at Los Zarzales
This was yet another restaurant that I was determined to try, having managed to miss it last August.
It was the Friday before we left and we'd decided to eat at lunchtime as we were meeting Timberman and his wife in the evening for a drink.
So, we did a little shopping in PP and made our way slowly to the restaurant which is one street back from the main promenade in the resort.
I think we caught the staff unawares as it was just past 12pm when we enquired about a table. But they were very professional and we took a seat under a large umbrella outside the main entrance.
The setting was very relaxed at lunchtime and I noticed the interior of the restaurant looked much more formal, but for us, it was great with the children able to wander down to the small supermarket on the corner and bug us to buy them things.
We enjoyed a pre-lunch glass of beer and some bread and olives while we studied the menu. Hubby and I both went for the prawn cocktail for a starter which was delicious. The prawns were plump and juicy and there was lots of sauce and salad. The children happily munched on garlic bread.
For our main courses, hubby chose cod while I went for pork tenderloin in a beautiful sauce. Both dishes were beautifully presented and we enjoyed them immensely. My pork was tender and the sauce thick and tasty.
The children enjoyed well-cooked meals of chicken which were only charged at 5,50 euros, perhaps the cheapest meals for the children of the whole two weeks.
There was no question of dessert. Our main courses were very filling so we just sat and enjoyed a coffee and watched the restaurant gradually fill up.
The bill was 98 euros which included lots of drinks and the usual bread and olives.
We'll definitely go back but for dinner next time. The service was relaxed and friendly and we could have sat there all day soaking up the sun and enjoying the ambience.
