Woken up this morning with the distinct smell of Garlic as the reminder of our meal out at Tapas Cordoba up at Port Jack. I’ve been to a couple other Tapas places on the Isle of Man but this one has to be my favourite by a long way.We just had two course of dishes including spanish omelette, prawns in a chilli oil, potato salad, meatballs, posh hams on toasts (I think that’s the Spanish name..), garlic and olives, Anchovies, Chicken somethingorother and a couple of other dishes that I can’t remember.  To finish I had Creme Brulee which was excellent. anywhere that does a good cremem brulee is going to be pretty high up on my list of restaurants!The atmosphere up there is always authentic and relaxing. Wouldn’t be a good option if you didn’t have the time to sit and enjoy the food and the company but for us an ideal Saturday night out.

Got in a bit of a habit recently of going out for lunch every day. Not a bad thing but the pennies add up. We go to Java cafe a fair bit so decided for a change to try Driftwood Cafe. I think it’s David Buttery who used to have Tanroagan’s that’s got it and the food was fantastic. Really good homemade food and local! I had Cod and Haddock fish cakes with homemade chips and Don had Thai fishcakes.

The place is really nicely done out and I can imagine it would be a great place to take clients or people visiting the Isle of Man.
