Favourite meal

Come on, only your most favourite meal in Arillas. Only ONE is allowed or you will be disqualified.

Tell us which one was your favourite, not a list of all the others.

Competition ends on 31 January when I will pronounce the best meal in Arillas.

justphil's was the strange, huge prawn served by Tomas at Vavilas. It was gorgeous and ate like tender lobster.

Have a say.
Phil

Oh dear - I din't sample enough restaurants to make any real contribution.  However, I like to join in so will give my honest answer.

My favourite meal last year, on my first visit to Arillas, had to be the picnic on the boat we hired.  It was bread, tomatoes, crisps etc, so clearly it wasn't the food that made it the best meal.  It was the fact that we moored up in Porto Timoni and ate it whilst admiring the fantastic scenery and ambience.

We could have been eating cardboard and it would still have been the best meal ever.  Very, very special.

Well this is a very difficult question..... Bill opted for fried squid followed by spit roast lamb at Brouklis, then he changed his mind so many times that I said he would be disqualified so he's sticking with that.

For me it has to be Feta from the oven followed by Monk fish with potatoes at Vavilas served by Thomas and his lovely family.

Now Bill wants that as well..... so now I have told him he's disqualified and he's gone into a big sulk. Your fault Phil :)

Val, you just stole my thunder.  The exact same meal is also my fave, also with a half carafe of red wine.

This has created a great debate here in the Roberts household, but as usual I obey the last command and so our vote goes to last years end of season family BBQ at the Rainbow. The occasion as much as the food tipped the vote. The way that the family welcomed us into there gathering demonstrates some of the reasons of why Arillas is so special.

The meal we had at the Horizon last September - a chicken dish, whose name I forget now.    Superb cuisine in a great place!!

Looks like Thomas at Vavilas is running away with this, even more so now as the very same Monkfish gets my vote too!! Feta starter , honey and yoghurt dessert, , , , sorted!

Vavalis
Thomas's MONK FISH, say no more. 2 votes from Me and Dot

Do you remember when you dragged the couple off the street into Brouklis Phil  and got them to have dinner

We almost did the same at Vavalis last summer but they were on the way in.  I recommended the Monk fish and they ordered.
A couple of days later we saw them and they had been back for more.

It has to be Vavilas Sea Bream with the potatoes.  That's Billy's as well.  Bliss on a plate :)
