This wasn't a personal attack on you Cara, i have eaten in your bar on many occasions and my wife worked in Matlocks as a cook for a while and i know that the food in Matlocks is good as well, the reason we came in your bar to eat is it was always busy and thats a good sign.
Price wasn't considered important, the way we work is if somewhere is always busy then it must be good and you are always busy.
To be truthful if somewhere is cheap i question the quality of the food and the quality of the produce if they can buy it so cheap, i was out with my lad yesterday and he loves steak, we saw a bar funnily enough in Fanabe with Steak, Chips and Salad 3.75 and 1 pints.
He pestered me to go in for it and i wouldn't do, instead we ate somewhere more expensive, i'm not saying it wouldn't have been as good and it may well have been better than where we ate but the low price put me off!
All i am saying is this may be the case in Puerto Colon and surrounding areas.
