Restaurante PEDRAMALA :
Carretera La Fustera, 03720 Benissa.
Run by Bernard this is regarded as
the best restaurant in the Benissa
area. Booking essential. Report from
I.F.: “Generous portions, always
nicely presented and well prepared
in line with the guest’s wishes and
with a fresh salad as part of the
course. Prices higher than the average
but quality, quantity and presentation
easily make up for it. We never
take the menu-del-dia anywhere and
normally pay around €60 for two
courses and a bottle of wine”. no
muzak! 96 574 8315 / f.Mon; lunches
not served in summer. http://www.

FISH - JÁVEA & Denia
(from Euros 25.00 per head) :
Restaurante AMARRE 152 (Jávea)
: literally “Mooring 152”, tranquil
situation by the bobbing boats at the
very head of the mooring creek that
goes inland from the Parador. Menus
del dia €20 (fish). Excellent for rice/
fish dishes. A recent visit this week
showed them on good form.

AMARRE TAPAS : along the Jávea
seafront nearly opposite La Siesta.
Reports are still not encouraging. This
is in no way up to the same standard
as their excellent restaurant (above).
Service was over-familiar and the
muzak atrocious (drowning out the
sound of the sea; we were told the
screaming female gave “ambiance” –
my foot !). For music-hating tourists
only.
