Description

An interesting option (with a name that pays homage to the current trend for comfort food) despite its location away from Calp’s main tourist haunts. Its facilities are part of the gastro-boutique Cook Book hotel and feature a modern bistro-style dining room with large picture windows, bare tables of differing heights, plus countless lamps which define its personality. Enjoy highly varied traditional and international cuisine, including delicious pizzas, cocas (a type of flatbread), grilled and rice dishes, plus a superb steak tartare. A tasting menu option is also available.
