We have eaten with Jorge, the owner of Elias tapas restaurant for each of the four years in a row…read morewe have vacationed in torrevieja. He and his daughters run the restaurant with a few close coworkers who may as well be family, and their service is as good as the food. Everything, from boquerones (lightly fried large sardines) to patatas bravas to pulpo (octopus) has been perfect every time. And the prices are fantastic at 6 euro for a plate of boquerones and 3 euro for the patatas bravas. But by far our favorite is the made to order paella mixto. Jorge puts love into his cooking, and this, and his fresh seafood and vegetables, keep us coming. Ack year after year. It is always our first meal when we reach torrevieja, our home away from home.

I have had the pleasure of staying at the Finca Listonero a few times now, normally a week at a…read moretime. Having always enjoyed my stay I thought it was time to post a review. It is only a short drive from the sea and close to so many lovely Spanish villages and towns you can really see wonderful rural Spain. They provide such a relaxing stay, exceptionally helpful and the food is very great. It is sometimes too tempting to never leave and explore, but you must resist and see this wonderful part of Spain. However do indulge in cooked breakfast, sets you up nicely for a day of exploring. I enjoy the unlimited walks surrounding the Finca, you can walk for miles in almost any direction but good walking shoes are a must. The food is very high quality and I do choose to dine there at least several times when I stay, the menu is always different and seems to take influence from almost any country but with a Spanish twist. For example I love their chicken satay starter or the oh so Spanish sardines, for mains the pork secreto or the Spanish chicken casserole. I have even had the pleasure of fresh pizza cook in their outdoor oven. Anyway highly recommend for dining or getaway.

My Spanish friends brought me to la Tartana, and it was an unforgettable experience. We ordered…read moretwo arroz, one chicken and one seafood. Unlike what I had in Madrid or New York, they don't mix chicken and seafood in Alicante and Valencia. I told the owner that her food is better than that in Jose Andres' Mercado Little Spain in Hudson Yards, and Angelita was very pleased. But I am sincere. La Tartana prepares arroz for individual groups, while paella in Mercado Little Spain is for the mass. Also I was told that water in Alicante is suitable for arroz. Angelita invited us to see the kitchen, and I was amazed by the operation. It was run by her, her husband, and three sisters. The kitchen is very clean, cleaner than mine where I don't even cook! She explained to us different broths and cookware for various arroz. Her sisters said that it's hotter than 40 degree celsius, or 105 Ferenheit. I could feel it. The family certainly takes pride in their food. I told them that I would return to Alicante just for la Tartana''s delicious arroz, and I certainly will.
