atmosphere & beautiful gardens
(but the green lawn/carpet ought to
go!). We have had good reports but,
judging by their rather poor quality
menu-del-dia, we think their strengths
may lie in their à la carte Nepalese
cuisine. So best proceed with care
in that direction. Considerate and
friendly service. Take-away service
is available. Very low muzak. 96 577

NEW ADDITION
THAILAND
Rte PAD THAI : Same family that
owns Buddah Palace. A new addition
for Arenal. If this family can be
trusted then this, too, will be a good
experience but, for the moment, it is
too early to judge. My Nasi Goreng
(Indonesian!!) was not up to the
usual standard of this owner. Further
reports welcome, please. 96 577 9824

CHINESE
Rte The WOK BUFFET: Jávea (On
roundabout opp. the CAIXA Bank
(formerly Barclays). Very good for
families and now with an extensive
choice of shellfish included in their
super-bargain price. Eat all you like
for €10.95 (€6.50 for kids under 7).
Go early (12:30h for lunch, 19:30h for
dinner) when the huge spread is at its
best. Attentive service. No muzak.
A bit of a “canteen” ambience but
this is a high quality “fill-up” if you
are hungry and/or are feeding hordes
of kids. 96 579.7016 / daily 12-24h.
Restaurante (the 5-star) BENI
ASIA***** (BENITACHELL) :
On right side of the Cumbre del Sol
road which leads off Benitachell
high street (left at traffic lights just
after Mas-y-Mas). This is regarded
by very many (including your writer
and former residents of Singapore
& Hong Kong) as the best Chinese
