Flavourful!..............

TLate start today, we had a bit of a lie in before breakfast at Toscana.  The girls had set up a special seat for us, señoras Garcia, where I could paddle in the ornamental pond!!! They are so cheeky!!

So in with Marcos and Angel to our regular seat! They really do look after us.  The girls all came by for their candy, there's lots of good natured squabbling about who has what! shehily likes the M&S butter mints, the girls like the werthers and the boys get whatever's left!!  Everyone comes by for a sweetie every morning - thanks mum for getting them for everyone!!!

So lunchtime we went down for rock and burger on the beach, sans burger!!  This is a cracking couple of hours, watching the world go by,and listening to the rock music with the live band whilst drinking margaritas.



We went for a late lunch to the grill, herby chicken wrap for me, shrimp cocktail and tuna sandwich for Kev, before retiring to our outside day bed on the patio.







For dinner we went off to our first visit to the flavour market, Kev was t keen, but boy, did he change his mind!! One of the best evenings weve had here! Flavour market is all tapas style small portion plates - We took Luis's advice and choose three staters each and three main courses and we both LOVED everyone of them.  Kev could decide on a cerveza, so Luis said leave it to him, so he brought back 3! And three glasses, opened them all and invited Kev to try!! Lol! He did!! He was one happy bunny!!








Small platter of cheeses and meats whilst we looked over the blackboards, then This was what we had

Starters
Green beans with ham on toast
Chicken with garlic aioli on toast
Iced fruits marinated in alcohol (!)
Red sausage on toast
Smoked meat on skewer 

Mains
Tenderloin in garlic sauce x 2
Bell pepper stuffed with crab
Egg, potato and ham
Scallops with peaches
Courgette stuffed with goats cheese

Dessert
Pistachio turron
Fruit fitters
Saffron ice cream

It was a super meal, and I wish we'd gone earlier in our holidays!

So after dinner we retreated to the martini bar, for Brady Alexander's for me and pacificos for Kev (we had a quick look at the madonna show, but it wasn't really our thing).  When we just left, Ceasar called us back, he'd designed a special cocktail for me to go with my mint green blouse - no name yet he said!! It was delicious and had a melon base, we then had to creep out before he stopped us again!! Lol!



Staff member of the day - Freddy - we have to share the love around every day at lunchtime, some days it's Alberto, some days Angel or Marcos, yesterday it was Freddy who looked after us - he's very funny, always got a smile and is super efficient, he usually knows what I want before I ask! Love Freddy!
