The whole area is full of the most wonderful restauarnts of great diversity and taste from local traditional Spanish cusine through to Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Seafood, Belgian, French, Steak Houses, Tapas Bars ... you name it, it is here, and good quality, very reasonably priced.

We have three ‘locals’.  First is Bar Canis which is a 2 minute drive or 20 walk (uphill!) – it provides the most fabulous food and speciality tapas with good wine and very cheaply – this is where the locals go to eat.  Its reputation for its Paella stretches for miles.........  The second is a roll down the hill to the coast about 4 minutes (by car) and is a superb Chinese called Pato Peking.  The third is a wonderful Italian - our daughters' favourite - which is 3 minutes down the hill (by car) at the Hotel Montemar called La Tartarna.  Here they have a comprehensive menu from Pizza upwards and superb Chocolate Mouse (ask them to put one by for you when you order your main as they are very popular and often run out).

Try eating in the Jalon Valley.  If you have withdrawal symptoms for Sunday roast, go to Monroes Carvery in Moraira and if you want a fun evening overlooking the beach with cocktails try Coconuts in Calpe on the stip along from the Esmerelda Hotel.  You should also try the shellfish restaurants in Calpe Port and also in the Port is a Japanese where the chefs entertain you with their knives and cook in front of you.



 

If you like shows and family entertainment do try Benidorm Palace which is excellent value for money and equals the quality of any London production at a fraction of the price and includes a 4 or 5 course diner with wine and champagne.  Also take the children to Castillo Conde de Alfaz for a Medieval evening of jousting whilst eating soup, chicken & potatoes followed by ice cream.

Or if you're just too exhausted from all the day's activities why not pop into the Mercadona supermarket in Benissa and stock up on some shellfish and meat and have a BBQ at home.  The Villa has a traditional charcoal spanish style BBQ and for those that don't want to wait there is also a gas BBQ.  Both are located on the pool side so have an evening dip whilst you are waiting for the food to cook................
and sample some of the Jalon wine while you wait!
