Hey Tony,

I eat everything and anything. I was brought up strictly that you never left your parents table without clearing your plate. At boarding school you cleared your plate or felt the wroth of more detentions piled on. The latter would not accept my allergy to all types of lactose, goats included!

It´s those fussy tourists from across the borders!

It does make me laugh when The Frenchies say that one of the reasons they come to Spain each year is because they can get such wonderful seafood. Three days later they ring up and ask where can they dine out on paella without seafood.

I find more and more Belgium and Dutch folk enquire about Vegetarian Eateries.

Bring on the Germans! They love their pork and sausages.
I rest my case.

Had lunch in Pili's today and were very impressed with the quality of the food and the service. We were the only people eating there but I have to say it was excellent, although a bit more expensive thatn we were led to believe from reports on here. Three of us ate for about €85.  This was mainly due to the 'boys' eating corder at €16 a head.  Very delish but quite expensive.  We will definitely be going back and will take friends with us.

Well spotted    Presume you live nearby, if so you've got a lovely 'local'.

Hi Tony.  We went to Pili's today after reading your write up.  Excellent value and what a lovely lady Pili is. She wanted to know how we found it and I mentioned your name and the Tortosa Forum and a huge smile appeared.  She obviously thinks a lot of you!!!!  Anyway, all in all it was well worth the trip. Just a shame that the weather wasn't too good, very humid and cloudy so we couldn't admire the beautiful scenery.  We'll definitely return on a better day. 

Thanks for that Tony.  We will probably go back to Alfara de Carles again as we were disappointed with the weather this time. Will let you know

Good to hear that Pili is back on form again.The prices sound good as well.   

Braseria Ca la Pili is on the left on the main road after passing the town sign and before going up the hill into the village.
Unaware of any day that they are closed apart from Christmas Day.  When Pili is not there (very infrequent) then her son Patrick who trained at the catering college in Cambrils is on duty.
