As the saying goes "when in Rome do as the Romans do" ...
When travelling we try to live by that saying by being adventurous in what we eat and drink.
Today was not different although we did have something we had last year ... but it was so delicious we had to have it again.
We chose to eat at "Can Carlus" located on a cobble stoned lane next to the old walls.
We had reserved a table for four at
1230 to 100 with John, the same waiter we had met last year.
When we arrived he offered us "Cava" as a gift ... so we had a toast to our day in Tossa de Mar with Madame M. and Msr. Guy.
Last year Msr. Honey had a pocketful of souvenir Canadian pins that he obtained at our local MPs office before we left.
John was a recipient of one of these pins ... he recognized us and welcomed us back!
One the specialties of the area is "Cim I Tomba", my best way to describe it ...
It is like a fish stew but so much better.
A little white wine ...
The pan of Cim I Tomba presented to us before it was served on individual plates ...
Potatoes, onions, peppers, roasted garlic bulbs, some aioli, fish fillets ... there are various recipes.
That was good ...
House liqueur ...
Waiters dressed as they should be ... Thank you for the great food and service!
If you find yourself in Tossa de Mar ... make sure to try the Cim I Tomba at "Can Carlus".

I think we were all "Happy, Happy" with our delicious lunch!

My camera was in overdrive today!
