Last night was treat-night again. It doesn't happen often in this financial climate, so we try to get it right when it happens.
Restaurante Paraiso Parcent
Seven of us booked a table at Restaurante Paraiso on the outskirts of Parcent on the Costa Blanca - and what a treat it turned out to be. Entertainment was laid on in the form of 'John the Fiddler' - and wow, what a musician. He absolutely made that violin zing - and played keyboard - and played guitar - and sang.
Terrific entertainment all around.
Restaurante Paraiso has been renovated but retains it's original rustic image. It has incredible views over the village, two fireplaces, and an ancient olive press in the central reception. The international menu, changes on a regular basis. Run by two chefs, one famed for steak dishes the other for desserts.
The waiters/waitresses all joined in the fun by dressing as serving wenches and suchlike. The food was absolutely top class - and we enjoyed ourselves tremendously.... And for all that entertainment, and 5 course meal with half-bottle of wine per person it only came to 18:50 euros - well worth the trip.

We should be going to Paraiso again in a few weeks - looking forward to it.
What more can you ask - good food, good entertainment and good company.
