The Happy Rooster Restaurant, Las Canteras
As we see it, at least once in your life you have to go to Gallo Feliz and try some of their Fondues. Whether the Burgundian or the one we always ask for, the eastern. Both are for at least two people. In the case of the oriental, you can accompany your beef of 11 different sauces. Each diner has their skewers and cook your own steaks with the oriental vegetable broth. In addition, as a garnish you can Order rice, French fries (natural) or vegetables. Our favorite sauce is dill and also beet, mmmm. The best thing about this dish is that when the meat is finished, the broth that remains in the central saucepan is served to you in a bowl. Very rich.
Another special Happy Rooster dish that we love to order is herrings.. We recommend the one that comes with three types (3 different sauces). However, the one we like the most is the mustard one.
We also love your gratin french onion soup for the coldest days. Regarding desserts, the most typical are apple pie type strudel You can order it with ice cream or cream. Or the flambéed crêpes suzette with orange juice and brandy.
Regarding the price, around €30-340 per person, depending on how many starters you order, if you order wine and dessert. Still, it is worth it, since it is a different, entertaining and delicious meal. Above in full Las Canteras beach.
