This looks like something a British person would enjoy.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 33 points 4 months ago (2 children)

This is 100% targeted at large sunburned bald blokes in wife-beater vests from Portsmouth who only go on holiday to a corner of Spain that has all the same shops and restaurants as at home.

That's the life blood of the Costa del Sol, baby!

[–] essell@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

cooked by sunlight

I would enjoy this. Im barely 1/8 British but my other ancestors colonised large parts of north england so I think of them as our weird long lost relatives.

They did say there were 3 courses.

[–] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

🤷‍♂️ horses for courses, as they say.

[–] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It actually looks okay but best i can do is €5.

[–] Delphia@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Ok the salad is a weak ass effort but grilled pineapple, pork steaks and chips is uninspired but also predictably enjoyable and hard to fuck up.

The price is the problem.

[–] sushibowl@feddit.nl 6 points 4 months ago

The price includes a starter, dessert, bread/butter, and one drink.

Where I live in Europe you'll pay €19 for a burger and fries, so this seems like incredible value.

I don't know, the chips look bad. Soaked in oil and not crunchy at all.

[–] narp@feddit.de 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It heavily depends on how you interpret the description.
In Germany there are a restaurants that prepare a big batch of soup and desert and serve it automatically to every main dish (three courses).
If it includes bread and butter and a drink on top, then this might not be gourmet shit but it's definitely not expensive at all.

I found the restaurant, it's a tourist trap type place catering to British tourists in Málaga, Spain.

Looking at some of the [pictures] (https://goo.gl/maps/my4vMrR5hoFrAb4r8?g_st=ac) you basically get a starter, main course and dessert, plus bread and butter and a half bottle of wine for that price which is actually quite incredible value. The food looks pretty shit, but gammon steak with pineapple, egg and fries is like a British pub staple so it's expected to look shit.

Please for the love of god make sure you don't accidentally arrange any of the "three courses" in an appealing way. Just shotgun them randomly at the plate.

Three courses? Do they mean that the bread and then the drinks are the other two courses?

[–] sushibowl@feddit.nl 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's not shown in the picture but you get a starter, this, and dessert, plus bread/butter and half a bottle of wine for that price.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

Oh. That ain't such a bad price then.

Thanks

The bread is not shown but it could be on the side or maybe OP ate it because it came out first
