27 August 2026 Fuengirola: Yo, Fritzter, it's Your Birthday

 


The Patagonia Steak House offered a 600 gram ribeye steak which was ideal for my birthday dinner.  We arrived around 6 PM and got a fine table without having a reservation.  The restaurant soon filled up as this street was lined with restaurants and there was even a roaming troubadour.  His smooth guitar riffs made for a pleasant eating experience.  As we were checking in with the head waiter, Leslie let slip that  it was my birthday, so dinner started with champagne!  She ordered a Queen Tenderloin and it was big enough to make dinner the next evening.  We lingered and enjoyed the atmosphere.  The adjacent table ordered dessert and it arrived with a burning sparkler.  It was his birthday too! We shook hands to toast our shared birthdays and were rewarded with a four of shots of Irish Cream for the two tables.

Lots of fancy man hole covers to admire...maybe I did not need that second glass of wine!
