La escollera: Almost a Cost-Free Fish Restaurant to the Right of Gibraltar.

Restaurante La Escollera, Calle Puerto Pesquero, Estepona, Spain / 24 марта 2017

You input into the navigator: Estepona, then the address and race out of Marbella.

Our place is right after some so-called “luxury resort”. There’s a concrete parking, some warehouses, trucks and a mesh fence which walls off the pier. There’s a fish shop here as well. Everything’s just wonderful!

We enter. Through the fish store, of course.

The same inside. A tiled floor, ornate plaited ceiling, fluorescent lamps, oilcloths on the tables, simple standard spoons/forks, and plastic menus; chic!

And the same for the people. Very understandable people, there were families or couples, or folks eating alone. They came here just to eat.

Not to present themselves, nor to watch the sea. No, people have come here simply to eat fish. To eat lots of fish. So they do!

There’s nothing more to write about. See the pictures. They take out what they have managed to catch from the same buckets in the shop behind the wall and put it on the scale, wham!

Grill, pan, frito.

Because of the quality of the initial product, which is not over-tortured, and the fact that the visitors are locals, you won’t fool around with them, everything turns out to be pretty good.

And yes, everything in the pictures cost us slightly more than 100 Euros for two people. We barely rolled out there. In the direction of Gibraltar.
