Aha Ian, there's a question to which everyone will give different answers! I have eaten it in Portofino and Graziella. Both were lovely but very different. You are truly spoilt for choice.

We'll have to go to Portofino and Graziella, and let Sylvie make a choice on the Moussaka!

My daughter also loves moussaka and raved about it in Porto Fino. She also loved the grandma's Lamb.

Also try Graziella's garlic prawns. Many eateries do them, but we have done it 14 times in Graziella. Yes, Thomas and I worked it out in July. 14 times. Cooked to perfection, tender and taste so decadent. 14/15 euros but worth every cent.

......I'm going to be too heavy to get back on the plane!

Apologies again, Eileen - back to rural Corfiot life...

Thanks again for all your support. 

You'll have a smashing time Ian and Sylvia, especially trying out all the restaurants....be warned....you'll have to do a power of walking to get rid of all that excess baggage for the trip home!  My mum is coming up for her 84th birthday and intends to come again to Arillas next April...your spring chicken of a mum will love it too.

Eileen meluvver, you and keith have done so well. As you said, yer mum is 84 or what? She is next to 49 again.....Bet she wouldn't admit to any more! She will make a seriously good time in our place.

Sandy's dad comes to my mind. One day I will be just like he is.... So full of his offspring and what they believe in. Dancing in their kitchen. Doing his best to help. Solving her problems.

Arillas has some bloody great hold on us all. Jen and me will never be as clever as yous two are, but we will enjoy it all from our perspective. Life for us is simple. Everyone who meets us understands that. I just spent ages trying to put a list together. Jen warned me how lists don't work.

Well luvver yous are on our list...........

loveandhugs

Sounds like a very good idea. Good luck with it Eileen!
Phil, agree with you about the garlic prawns at the Graziella, their food is excellent, especially the local caught fresh fish. Always something different to try, and cooked to perfection.
Yammas,
Martin.
