El Trestellador

This place was visited by us and friends back in April, and is located near the town of Guadalest. The rice dishes were superb, and it is a beautiful and peaceful location to really enjoy. I was jonesing for some rabbit, that is in the picture below. A true paella....rice, garbanzos, red pepper, garlic...yum! Our friends ordered the Arroz, which as you can see is baked in the traditional ceramic dish instead of a paella pan. Great also! Look at that meat, the whole dish is just ooozing with flavor.

Ok, to backtrack a bit, in April we went for a drive up to Polop, in the mountains surrounding Alicante. This is a Valenciano area, where said language is spoken. We just love it up here....and on our day trip, we went to this restaurant. It was Fantastic! Love it. The cuisine reflects the area, they have much more of an earthy mixture of food, where the sea is left behind. Pictured here is our roasted vegetable plate, spinach empanadas with quail egg on sundried tomato, and roast baby leg of lamb. The lamb pic is a bit blurry, I was so excited when it was put in front of me....and was Delicious. I can still taste the succulent juices on the plate.
