We had crab salad then turbot and meat and egg 'tort' plus white wine and water for 2. The salad was crabstick based with lovely sauce and green salad. Turbot was very good but the tort was not as we expected - deep-fried battered egg and meat. We then had coffee. Total came to 30€ for 2 - excellent value if you get the right food

This is a cute, brightly colored red and green restaurant very near where I live, and I chose it…read morebecause it looked open, and it also looked less expensive than El Jardīn. I really just wanted a café con leche but I only had a card and no euros. Entonces, tengo que comprar comida. El menú, that they wrote down for me actually, didn't have many dishes. I let them choose for me. I think they had sopa, carne, and fish, but I'm not sure. I think he chose carne for me. Anyway, they also have wifi and will give you the password if you want. So apparently what I ordered was some meatballs in gravy and fries. I don't really know why everything I seem to order comes with fries in Spain. At the Día Desur, the organic restaurant in Santander, I ordered fish and veggies with guac and it came with fries. This, again, is with fries. Is it because I look and sound American? Do Americans just get fries automatically? I'm not sure. Anyhow, the chef/waiter was really really nice. The bread was not really that great. I was sad because I would have eaten it. The dish was good. It wasn't the healthy thing I would have ordered if I could read (I really need to work on reading food - maybe that is what I will do tonight, look up lots and lots of terms for food. Find some Spanish menus online. Translate them. Google: Ordering in a Spanish restaurant. Yes, I need to do this) but it is delicious. I have heard that whatever restaurant is in Novales is good because if it was not, it would shut down. And I will eat this even though there are no vegetables because I have been going kind of hungry in Spain. Just a bit. But I look very svelte, so yay. I know this is a travesty, though. Because Spain has delicious food. I know it does. And I think that if I can just find some Spaniards to take me out and show me the way, then I'll be so thankful. I want to enter that magical land. It's just that my current host family (whom rocks by the way, omg I love them) is made up of rather busy parents. The café con leche, by the way is a really generous portion. The soup was very good too. I think I may have ordered soup. It came first and was kind of a savory golden broth with the smallest bit of noodles. It was very hot. Very comforting. Then they took it away. I did not know how to ask to keep it. Quiero mantaner por favor (?). I need to learn more Spanish if I am going to survive. I do know some. I crash coursed the language two weeks before I came. But I decided to come very suddenly. Oh, and I am glad I did. I am excited for my self-given homework for tonight. Anyway, I would rate this restaurant (with a bar - there is kind of a partition or second room for the eating area) as semi-casual. It is nice, more than a diner for sure. I wish they would draw the curtains open though - it is a very cloudy day. Oh, and it is mid-May right now, and cold up here in the north sometimes. I just want to tell you that. Café con leche everywhere I go: muy bueno.
