El Alpendre de Félix, restaurant in Santa Lucía de Tirajana
We recommend that you try the homemade salad that carries fruits and vegetables from the area. Specifically, it has prickly pears, figs, papaya, melon, zucchini, carrots, tomatoes, tuna, onion and lettuce. I imagine The fruit will vary depending on the season. It is full of fresh flavors and even some of their Ingredients are from their own garden.
Next, we also tested the grilled chicken which came accompanied by vegetables and potatoes. The chicken was seasoned, delicious, and the vegetables were spectacular.
Another of the main dishes were some Roman-style Saharan squid that was off the menu. They did not come with a garnish, but it was not necessary since the portion was quite filling. The calamari was delicious, if you have the chance, order it.
Finally, for dessert we wanted to try the cheesecake with pineapple and papaya that they make themselves. She was super juicy. Mmmm, how delicious!
Regarding the price, around €25 per person. So it's great considering the quality of raw materials and quantity of food. We hope you love it as much as we do! If you go, we would like you to tell us about it 🙂
