First course beachside at La Maja
grilled artichokes
Chopitos (fried baby squid)

Composed salad with goat cheese
Cocido con pelotas (traditional regional favorite)
Sample of tapas served complimentarily with wine or beer
Paté plate

John Dory fish with salad and fries
Sautéed fish with veggies in saffron sauce

I specially like paella and the baby squids, I tasted them in Barcelona
Agreed. I am an adventurous eater so I enjoy trying the variety of interesting food here.
I remember my first visit to Spain – Benidorm in 1977. The food at the Hotel Don Juan was appallingly bad. Thank goodness things have changed. I always enjoy my food in Spain now!
There are still lots of crappy restaurants in Benidorm, but fortunately, there are quite a few with quality, innovative food.
