Not menú del día but...

In the pueblo of Sant Jordi, just 20 minutes inland from Vinaròs
is a restaurant by the name of cal Racó.


Inside, it is typically Spanish with beamed ceilings, stone walls and tiled floor...


...and it even has central heating - the wood stove is in the centre of the dining room!



It is tastefully decorated with iron sculptures of leaves on branches featuring regularly.


For starters we shared a mozzarella and tomato salad.
Margaret's choice for the second course was the roast breast of chicken 
wrapped in bacon and stuffed with cheese and mushrooms.


I went for the Galician steak...


...followed by an apple crepe drizzled with honey.


Outside, even the gate was an iron sculpture of leaves and branches,...


 ...the almond trees were in full blossom...



...and a charming iron sculpture of a dragon featured at the garden entrance.

Although the meal was not a menú del día, it was still a worthwhile visit!
