    El Horno Neptuno my go to place for tapas so glad you decided to try . I been saying to you that you should try , the reason they bring separately because it’s all cooked fresh to order , and a lot of people request as it’s cooked, that way food does not go cold , I always have 1 dish at a time , my local tapas restaurant , lovely owners , there are so many more dishes you need to try next time , deserts are good too , glad you enjoyed , x

    Hi Darren amazing food, as you say quality ingredients prepared by people who know what to do.
    What a refreshing change from other so called food channels doing videos on budget crap from supermarkets,they don't realise supermarkets sell fresh food which you can prepare at home but no wasting their money on cheap processed salty junk then moaning when its garbage and they paid £1.50 for it 😂lol.
    Great content as always choose something off the beaten track

    OMG mate are you making me feel like getting my tush on a plane or train and out of the High Peak here.
    I’ve been thinking about filming in different places for my channel, even considered going up to Blackpool recently ……Until I saw a video on UA-cam of the town ……omg it looks like it’s literally closed down it’s sad, like most towns and cities in the U.K.
    I’ve not been there for years but Wowwww it sure looks a lot more appealing than most places in the U.K. …….hardly surprising it’s full of Brits!
    Interesting to get a good idea of prices.
    Hope you have a great time mate 👍

    Watcher Darren, it's a strange thing Tapas. Never a meal I thought for the single person. Much more a party share'n'tear spread. Have to say your potatoes in this restaurant were magnificent, many times better than the ones you had last time. The Chicken croquettes, fine meal size balls 😂. Not sure what to call a plate of shredded lettuce & 1 halved tomato? Garnish or Salad 🤔The omelette looked superb, a proper, well made Spanish Omelette. Chicken Toast 🤔like an open sandwich or burger 🍔( breast/or boned thigh?) Overall, a meal to set you up for the afternoon of tourists things OR a Siesta AKA a good kip😔😌. Informal eating with fair views and not hard on the wallet 😎brilliant. See ya on the next one. Allan & family
