IN A CLASS OF THEIR OWN
(from €35+ per head)
Restaurante LA BOHÈME (Jávea,
Arenal beach front) : This restaurant
is now regarded as the best of the
French styled/owned restaurants
on the Arenal beach front (Los Remos
de la Nao & La Perla are two others).
Fine tapas, superb steaks. Menu del
dia €16.95. Consistently excellent
reports throughout the summer but
comments say this is an expensive
place (revealed, perhaps, by the
excellent refurbishment). Parador end
of Arenal promenade. : 96 579.1600
/ open daily / Muzak tolerable.

Restaurante EL CAMPO : On the
right side (of the approaching left-
handed bend) on the Benitachell road
after the Jávea Bowling Club. This
restaurant (empty for over 12 years)
has now been subjected to a truly
superb and thorough refurbishment
providing a beautiful rural atmosphere
with excellent parking.
We wrote recently about this
significant re-opening where we
praised them for their charming
service and excellent food! The small
amuse-guele, of a baby burger, was
of a very high gastronomic order -
bravo ! This was followed by a filet
de boeuf (rare) with a sensational red
< Rebel-lia from the Vegalfaro Estate
(Requena) at €16 > (available from
Casa del Vino at Arenal) and frites
worthy of Belgium !!
Their
particular
speciality
is
barbecued meat of all kinds. Menu-
del-dia (midday) Tue-Fri from 1pm
€12 (choice of 2 starters, 2 mains
and 2 desserts). Weekend menu €18
(3 starters, 3 mains and 2 desserts).
We spent a delightful evening there
served very professionally and with
great charm by owner Kate and staff.
