Javea Grapevine Issue 181 - LARGE FONT EDITION | Page 101

Restaurante LA CALETA : Avda.Ultramar 114, Jávea (Cala Blanca).  Excellent, but simple, fish etc. on the rocks with just the noise of the sea (unpolluted by muzak !). Careful what you order – this isn’t as cheap as it appears ! Closes end Sept. for the winter. Restaurante LA CANTINA DE JAVEA : Situate right in front of the fishing fleet in Jávea’s port (on the ground floor right around the back (left side) of the one storey building by the fishing boats). Clientele is very Spanish. Best Patatas Bravas in Jávea ! They are often very busy so you must go early (say 12:30h). Very good prices. Their fish menus consist of the catches of the day. They are serving all day long (and usually even after the cinema). Tel: [phone] / open tlj : 7/7. Restaurante SUR (at GRANADELLA BEACH):  ...at the beautiful Granadella creek (down off the Cabo de la Nao and the No.1 beach of the Marina Alta); certainly the best fish restaurant in Jávea (they own their own boat and sometimes have an extraordinary variety !).  Our absolute favourite for fish and a beautiful location.  Sensational puds !  Highly rated (7½/10) in Spain’s Gastronomía Guide.  Best to book. 96 577.1612  /  July/Aug daily 10-23h / otherwise open lunch only (closed mid-Dec - end Feb).  http://www.restaurantesur.com/ FISH ITEM (retail) ! Outside Ermita supermarket (by the little church on the Jávea to Jesús Pobre road) 10:00h on a Saturday morning an enterprising Dutchman (Arjen) who is selling fresh martjes, smoked eel, roll-mops, smoked mackerel, buckling (a herring smoked whole – as opposed to kippers which are smoked flat), smoked trout and potted shrimps ……. There are no further frozen HERRINGS for the moment due to change of supplier in Holland. Orders to : 667 997300 (every Sat. morning from 10:00h) or [email protected] inside this supermarket, at Xavi’s excellent meat counter, the very best STILTON in the area ]. Arjen is in MORAIRA on Thurs 10 - 14h at Tabaira – Palco. INCODNITO < Fish ‘n’ Chips > : Jávea, Arenal beach, on main car park.  It is not usual for such an establishment to find its way onto this list but it has proved to be very reliable with both fresh fish and chips of excellent quality.  Tel : [phone] / f.
