Abanico

We were looking for a nice relaxed bite to nibble at and this place popped up as a well suggested option so we walked up from the port after a morning at the markets. And what a great suggestion! We were warmly greeted by the staff and shown through to the terrace at the back which was situated in a quiet square and was lovely out of the direct sun. I think our waiter was the owner and he explained the menu, the daily specials and how the items are prepared. Definitely ask what the empanadas and specials are as they change – if they have the beef ones then you have to try them. Two of us had two empanadas, croquetas, carne y tomate and Russian salad (all tapas portions) and it left us stuffed – which was a shame as the dessert looked great! It washed down nicely with a couple of small beers and veranos, as we digested and watched the movements of a Sunday afternoon in the square. Lovely staff and chilled atmosphere, we would definitely return!
