Restaurants With a Difference

[BensGrandad]

I am warming to you

It's all small dishes, so normally order 2-3 each, share, and order more if you wish.

My fave tapas is the Andalucia in Ferring near Worthing if you are out this way

That is where I want to go to try but apparently you have to book well in advance and I noted from their menu that they do Paella and steaks so I may well be tempted to miss the tapas out and go for one of them.

Funny you mention it, i looked into this yesterday and was well up for it but at £52 a head plus drinks/taxis it's going to roll over £200 per couple which sadly was a little too much. Not ruling it out for the future though!

I'm not sure, I've only ever really booked on the day, or day before at best for a Friday night and never had a problem! Great family that run it, give it a go!

Another thumbs up for the Andalucia - never had to book too far in advance although it isn't a big restaurant. You can also eat out in the garden if it is a nice evening. Tapas portions there are quite large - we usually end up over ordering - but the food is always good.

What do you recommend from their menu for a novice tapas man, if you would rather not post it on the board by all means send me a pm

Been to similar before, usually decent feed, but not the best cuts of meat and they are keen to offload sausages on you rather than steak etc. can be very salty to, so you keep drinking.

I'd defo go there if you have not before, and I might check that one out

Thanks for that I assume that is per person. with some potatoes and veg or salad or does the food come with either.

You order what you like! It's all 1/3rd size portions really, so if you share to you get a bit of everything.

To Springal's list I'd also add the Pollo al ajillo which is a very nice chicken in garlic sauce dish. The idea of tapas is to share so order several dishes and share with your guests rather than get main course each. You can always start off small and then order more as you go along. Tapas don't come sides as you get the vegetarian tapas for these such as Potatoes ‘bravas’ served with hot spicy sauce or Potatoes ‘ali oli ‘with garlic mayonnaise. The tortilla (spanish omelette) is good but quite filling.

Tapas is easy to do at home. Just look up some recipes online for ideas and give them a go. It'll work out cheaper if you end up throwing stuff away that you're not to keen on.

Tight git. They want a night out !!!!!
