Best Paella

  • Start date Start date
I can only comment on the places i eat it but El Ancla, El Posito and Ikebana are all very good. :)
 
Isn't there a thread already running with this, but again, Tangos or El Mojito for best veggie paella in the port, fresh ones, I try to avoid the café style ones, nice but not a patch on the real thing
 
Off to El Ancla for the first one of the season, so will report back later!

The jazz has just started up and the sun is doing it's best.

I have to report that the paella as good as ever. Had to wait 1 hour (was advised) but I think that is a good sign.

Got caught short without my wallet but can pay the bill later. Try doing that in the UK!

Now ready for a serious snooze on the beach......zzzzzzzzz
 
As you say Wob good sign if it takes that long, it take at least 45 mins to make one, glad you enjoyed it, I will get around one year to a visit to El Ancla, maybe this year.
 
Oh i sooo!! agree, if it's served up in 15 mins it is probably frozen. The exception being if it's a starter on a MDD. Of course most places serve a mixed paella so it is always advisable to pre-order if you require a meat only/ seafood only or veggie.
 
We had a lovely mixed paella in Los Pescadores last week. I think it probably took about an hour from ordering and was delicious. Lovely setting on the balcony and great service too.
 
I've not been there for a year or two but I always thought C'an Ferrar, as well as being one of the best value restaurants around, produced some wonderful paellas.
 
The best veggie paella we have had was at Cellar La Parra - we had to order the day before but it was delicious. Problem is that OH like trad paella but I dont like sea food etc and he can never get paella for one:( We once tried a restaurant on the 'front' which did paellas for one but they were not good - think they were frozen and had no taste at all - rubbish:eek:
 
Had a great Paella in C'an Ferra last week
 
I would go for Ikebana we had a seafood paella and it was very good had to wait quite a time but as has been said they obviously cook them fresh.

I have seen Paella's served at the Bahia on the Pine Walk and they looked really good as well.
We are staying there for a few nights next month before we go to an apartment, I'm going to try it there as well as Ikebana.
 
I had two this year both at lunchtime: C'an Ferrar - lovely mixed paella, plenty of meat (chicken, pork, rabbit), and seafood (squid, prawns, mussels, crab claws). Absolutely delicious, and enough for two platefulls each for two persons. The second one was at Joker Bar (one of those paella for one dishes), very stingy with the meat (little bit of chicken and about half of a mini pork rib), one small prawn. Very stodgy like it had been sitting there a while. The C'an Ferrar one was actually cheaper per person.
 
C'an Ferrar every time. it is home made and certainly not frozen. You get plenty and it has excellent ingrediants. Just don't drink the wine (try a glass and you will see why I said that)
 
Thanks guys - keep going - some really good advice so far!
Grandad - I think I'll take your word on the wine then rather than waste good tastebuds - and euros!:o

You bought back a few memories there Grandad! The house wine is indeed truly shocking. The Sangria was not for the faint hearted either when last I dared try it. However they do offer bottles of Vina Sol, Rioja etc plus some local stuff at better prices than other restaurants in the Port I think.
 
las brisas, hope i have spelt that right. Not Brisas that gets lots of reports on the forum which is c'an joseph side of the marina but the one with the orange umbrellas next to iru on the front. Fab home made paella, little table brought over to put the massive paella dish on it was served by the waiter, with some left for second helpings!! Great location,food, service and wine!

IRU has had a good mention recently for paella too:)
 
Have to agree with you Alcanada the wine was shocking but as you say some of the others Mortitx as I recall for example 13 euros, a very good price. Paella was good though. Guess for the price you can't have everything
 
Got to agree the paella is good.PS We were in o lume when Jamie forgot your table booking Fussies.There were four of you and were seated at the table under the covered terrace in the courtyard.
 
Can Ferra is one place I woudl never ever order house wine you only make that mistake once

However you can get decent bottle for about 10 euros

And as I said earlier Paella so so good
