The next time you visit Ronda, be sure to visit American FlipOuts Diner at Carrera Espinel 9, the…read morefirst major through "side" street off of C/Jerez.
Paul Colin Bell, the Brit chef par excellence who purchased a former chocolate shop only to turn it into a bona fide retro American diner several months thereafter truly has outdone himself in the quality and tastefulness of food, as well as the nostalgic charm of its decor!
After eating the same types of food day after day, one often hankers for something different ... something unique ... something that tastes delicious and looks good, too, reminding you of what's behind and at "home."
American FlipOuts Diner delivers on all accounts!
We began with a basket of deep fried onion rings as an entrada to share. I then enjoyed a very tasty order of nachos with cheese and "spicy" sauce -- rather like a Marinara sauce with a bit of a bite -- while my partner immersed himself in a "bocadillo" (sandwich) featuring salmon fish with onions, tomatoes, and pickled cucumbers. Both plates came with sides of salads tastefully mixed with lettuce, carrots, beets, tomatoes, lemon, and more pickled cucumbers. We also shared a good-sized dish of papas fritas between us.
The hamburgers here are the real thing--about a half pound of beef, not pork!
All told -- including 4 Cruzcampos between us -- the bill came to about 18.5 Euros ... which, all things considered, is rather reasonable for Ronda.
Aftewards, when visiting the "servicio" to dispose of the beers we had rented, we got a good look at the inside decor: muy "retro" diner style, with red and white vinyl booths and tables throughout and lots of "cool" signage.
We personally believe it merits a visit ... and worth your patronage.
