Fortaleza

We visited the Restaurante Forteleza when we first came to Spain but for whatever reason have never returned. It is situated on the left hand side of the CV-95 at Vistabella and regularly advertises rations of paella for 9 Euros.

Yesterday, we were invited by the band to lunch there at 2pm. We fully expected paella and cooked meat from the barbecue. What we got was much more; it was all very tasty and served quickly without fuss. There was certainly no skimping on portions!

The highlights for me were the calamaris, the paella, the artichokes and of course the barbecued meat not forgetting the selection of desserts that rounded everything off.

It goes without saying that the company was superb and the welcome we received from the band members excellent. Many, many thanks for the invitation.
