Yes it was the Fussies annual pilgrimage to the Port these last two weeks with Mr& Mrs Fussie returning to Scotland in the early hours of today This year there was a maximum of ten of us at any one time but this only added to the problems of the various establishments visited with Miss Fussie in particularly good form
The season has not been very good this year and all businesses appear to be suffering. This was our 14th year in the Port, with this is our usual fortnight and I’ve never seen it so quiet. Although we pre booked on only 4 occasions (the Mr & Mrs Fussies anniversary dinner), two occasions when all ten were present and our final night (when Jamie forgot the booking, shame on him but he did redeem himself), we easily obtained a table on any night including a waterside table at Stay. We had some really good meals with visits to O Lume (3), Stay, Can Curassa, Llonja, Tribeca, Las Zarzales, Guru & new to the Fussies Los Faroles, Can Ferrera, Hell’s Kitchen, G&G’s and Scacco Matto (Piccolo Forno?) in Pollenca. I’ll provide more detailed comments in the coming days.
As a taster of what’s to follow the garden courtyard at O Lume easily provided the best food, wine and atmosphere of the holiday but not all previous Fussie favourites were up to the mark, Llonja standards having slipped. Most surprising omission for the past 14 years has to be Los Faroles, it looks nothing from the pavement but the fish and lamb were excellent. How could I walked past it so often and not ventured in!! Best newcomer has to be G&G’s.
