Have been to scampis in vista sur, on many occasions before, but went the other day and I have to say it was appalling. The fish appeared to be frozen and only half the size. Also was grey in colour. The fish used to be so big it hung off the plate, and had skin on it......proper haddock. Was very disappointed, and certainly wont be going back! Has anyone else noticed a change in the quality? | | | 1st March 2008, 13:46 | #2 (permalink) | | Super Tenerifian Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Kent/Los Cristianos Gender: Posts: 1,608 | Quote: Originally Posted by sheray Have been to scampis in vista sur, on many occasions before, but went the other day and I have to say it was appalling.
