Lunch in El Yate

That's THE El Yate at the end of the port, San Antonio, Ibiza. Let me guide you through our 3 course 'Menu del Dia' that we enjoyed in today's December sunshine. If there was a surefire remedy for the stresses and strains of wrapping presents, then this was it!

They're all from Spain's seafood capital, Galicia, so the menu of mussels & clams, followed by grouper came as no surprise.

They came in a fabulous white wine, olive oil, lemon and herb sauce, just great for dunking bread.

Next the Gazpacho (not the cold soup from Andalucia) which is normally made from game (birds or rabbits) on the high plains of La Mancha, but today had grouper in it.

And for eating it all and resisting licking the paellera clean (normally marli's job) I got my just desserts


Though I had to share it with.............
But it was worth it!
