We had yet another lovely meal at our local, Masia Sumidors last night. After a short walk from our home through the pine forest and olive groves, we were greeted and quickly had welcome g&t’s delivered to our comfy sofa.

We both had bacalao croquetas with a light curry mayonnaise. My partner had a Caesar salad, which he said was delicious. I had a fabulous piece of Iberian pork with sautéed potatoes and lovely crunchy vegetables. For postres we had an apple cake with ice cream and a carrot cake with lemon mascarpone, both of which were made by a local lady and were beautiful. All of this washed down with a local wine made it a memorable evening.

The atmosphere was very relaxed and the location exceptional. The owners, Natalie and Keith are charming hosts but the star of the show is young Alex, now just learning to talk but going round the tables in true waiter fashion, asking his customers if everything was alright.

As evening turned to night the restaurant took on an even lovelier look, with fairy lights, strings of bulbs and floodlit trees and bushes. Thank goodness we have such a great place so close to us. If you are in the area, make sure you visit. If you are not in the area, book a room in this delightful Masia. You will not be disappointed.
