Spend a couple of hours with the locals, just don't get in their way, exploring all the fabulous food the south of Spain has to offer. The Ratatouille in me is always in cheese heaven. SO many varieties of goat, sheep and cows cheese to choose from. I will never get through all of them. The incredible fresh seafood, many still gasping from their very recent plucking from their watery home. Vegetables so unbelievably fresh and beautiful. Spices. They were my main purchase this day. Why bother to fix true Spanish dishes unless you have a great selection of the appropriate spices. Spain, all the devine jamòn. Legs of various aging just waiting to be sliced just for you. Fresh meats that will have your head spinning- I don't know what to cook first. When traveling always check out the local market. Many stalls will offer samples to try. Other have items that can be prepared to travel home with. Some purchases just may not make it out the door they are so delicious. One last tip- go early in the morning 7-8 am for the best selection. And most markets close around 2 pm.

We arrived for a Christmas night dinner with very few expectations. My what a Christmas gift. My wife and I arrived at 7:30 (I know really early by Spanish standards) to a half full room of diners including families dressed for a special evening, as we were. Shown to our table immediately, seated, allowed a few minutes to settle in before asked for drinks and shown menus. Very easy flow of menus, cocktails, wine list and time to peruse. They offered specials but the head waiter stopped in to offer the kitchen expertise for anything off menu that they might try satisfy. All done with ease and grace. Menu was expansive Spanish/ French with nice selections of seafood and meats. My wife had the lobster Thermidor and I had a fish soup and grilled corvina. We started with fresh bread and butter (excellent olive oil was on the table), a muse bouche of salmon purée, olives, an aioli and carrot/celery. The salmon was nicely done and a good start. The soup came next and was very flavorful and hearty. Nice chunks of seafood. The mains came next nicely timed. The Thermidor was nicely sauced with large chunks and sauce was exquisitely balanced. My wife loved it. My corvina was a a very nice portion. Gilled to perfection on a bed of whipped potatoes, julienne vegetables and delectable sauce. We finished with a goat cheese ice cream. It went well with our remaining cava (the wine list is extensive and heavily Spanish) and a nice cortado. We were given a Spanish cordial on the house that finished the meal. This was the work of a confident and professional kitchen. Service was special. We had at least 2 waiters (both young women) looking after us. They remained unobtrusive but efficient. Smiles and banter when we initiated but very professional. The restaurant was elegant but comfortable,15-18 tables I could see. As we left we were thanked and shown again the kind of genuine hospitality of gracious hosts who were confident and proud of their kitchen and staff and who truly enjoyed their work. I thought $$'s were equivalent to the value received. If you have the opportunity when you visit Marbella/ Estepona or make a special trek to try, I hope you will not be disappointed.

I ordered the tandoori chicken which came out on a sizzling plate. The aroma of the spices and onions made my mouth water. I can't handle spicy food so there was no heat level to it. It goes well with the garlic naan! The company i was with ordered both the prawn tikka masala and the chicken tikka masala with a level 2 spicy. They all said there was a good kick to it and tastes great. The cheese naan was a popular side item for the table and went great with the sauce from the tikka masala. The prices are a little above average and the portions are smaller, but the food is filling. the dishes do not come with sides, as those are extra. The staff here are very nice and accommodating. It is located on a busy street, closest parking would be the paid parking lot about 2 blocks up.
