"Enjoyed our seafood paella but over ordered and struggled to finish our food.
Starters were Galician pie and green beans with onion and garlic.
Service was quick and professional."

"One of the best Black Paella so far in Spain mostly i always got the salty one ☝️
This one even if you put the garlic cream on it it doesnt feel salty at all ☺️
Its better to reserve a table before you go in and its pretty convenient for tourist as well if you dont have Spanish number you can book it through their website just click their website here.
They only have two waiter that time. Thanks to Rosa she is really nice and happy to serve us ☺️
This is like a very authentic restaurant in Las Palmas 🌴

Ruta por los arroces que no debes dejar de probar en Gran Canaria
Desde el emblemático El Arrosar, en el entorno de Las Canteras y fundado por Rafael Pulido en 1988, cuenta con más de catorce referencias en arroces y fideuá, convirtiéndolo en todo un símbolo gastronómico de la ciudad, con la garantía del buen producto siempre presente. También en el entorno de la playa, encontramos otros dos lugares que poca presentación necesitan: El Camino al Jamonal, en La Puntilla, y La Lonja, en la calle Galileo. No son pocas las personas que peregrinan al Jamonal a por su dosis de arroz meloso de churrasco de res al horno, por ejemplo, de excelente materia prima y ejecución, este «arroz al cuadrado» es puro placer.
