@Northwalshamboy tweeted on return, "Year of the large cokes". It has been lovely seeing the Bureboy tribe graduating up through the ordering rankings. @'bain3z getting gloriously chocolatey in Es Grau. The first menu del nino. Punkies or a chuppa and toy from the dispenser in Carmens. Polo Fresa at Los Buccaneros, . (shh Grandpa's Magnums from the freezer) later walking to Grumpys to get ice cream for pud. Of course Copa de Venus or "Pudding". Never panacotta.
Ham and cheese toasties, chicken noogets and escalopes(Will) and of course entrecote, always with the pepper sauce. (@HenryBaines) or one year cubanos (timbale of rice with a tomato sauce for @Northwalshamboy
Drinkage. Coke has been the holiday fave, small of course, and strangely " a large bottle of water please".
I have always been vaguely amused by being charged the same for a cana (200-250ml) of soft drink or beer.between 1.25-2.50 Euro drinking at table. A jarra (400-500mil) from 2.50-3.50 Euro, more when at eating. Some times an actual "pinta".
Now this is the stuff...
Add to embarrassing ordering technique, no attempt at Spanish from Commander-in Chief to ordering cheese in Spanish and getting cheesecake (Titular Head) the dreaded phrase "big boys cokes".
Not this year, confident large coke or large beer all round...
Cafe drinks mostly fanta limon/cokes (or schweppes here), and agua con gas/cafe con leche for me.
Magners (bottle) or Strongbow(can) big at the mo, but at a big price. Much better this sort of stuff.
