2018-09-30 Hotel Can Batiste, Sant Carles de la Rapita, Costa del Azahar, Spain to Barcelona and Qatar

Later today we will be leaving Sant Carles de la Rapita as we have an evening flight out of Barcelona via Qatar to KL and then on to the Philippines. Being a Sunday with most shops closed, we decide to spend the afternoon enjoying a special lunch at the very popular restaurant at the Can Batiste Hotel. We had booked a couple of day prior to secure a table and had decided to have the degustation menu which comprised of numerous small dishes served over the course of a few hours.

To start with our favourite martini olives arrive on queue

Then came the grilled octopus which was outstanding

The seared tuna was amazing

Next we tried the wonderful clams

We were pleased the fish balls were included on the menu today

We were surprised how delicious the sea snails tasted

The flavours in the seafood risotto were incredible

The fish with the vegetables were wonderful as usual

There was not a spare table in the restaurant at lunch

An interesting cheese course

Before dessert was delivered we enjoyed a refreshing sorbet

Our last dish was the fabulously presented dessert

Once we had finished our wonderful lunch, it was time to leave Sant Carles to make our way to Barcelona to firstly drop off the hire car and then catch our flight to Qatar
