Taste Restuarant

Hi. Does any know if Taste have moved yet? I heard they were moving close to the top end at the split of the in & out road. We are looking for somewhere to eat Christmas Day. Majas are fully booked. If Taste aren’t opening does anyone have any other ideas? Thanks in advance x

The Festive Period

Some of you may remember me - I have posted several times over the years. However, a change in job meant I couldn’t get on the forum as much as I would like. Coming out 21.12.17 for ten days. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any particular bars or restaurants that will be open. Subject to cost...

Re: Hello - I am still alive

I arrive 10.9.16 for ten days. If people are going to be in a bar somewhere I don't mind saying hello.

Hello - I am still alive

Hello fellow forum members, Lamby here. I have not been very active on here as I changed job and my time and access to a PC is limited. But I am alive and I am still very much in love with CVO. We return in a few weeks for our thirteenth visit in five years. In that time we have travelled elsewhere ...

Accommodation

A question frequently asked on this forum - does anyone know of a one bedroom apartment that is available for 10.9.16 to 20.9.16. A pool, even shared, would be nice but not essential. Ideally with a washing machine and decent kitchen facilities and most definitely in walking distance of town. Any he...

We are on our way!!

Well, we are on our way to Silves. I feel a bit of a traitor - always singing the praises of Carvoeiro and then not even staying in town. We love the area and fancied something different so have gone for a farmhouse B&B just outside Silves. We will obviously venture into CVO for a few of our favouri...

Re: Mosquitoes

I tend to just drinks gallons of gin & tonic. Mossies don't like quinine that is found in tonic water. The gin is just to add taste :lol:

Hello

Hi all. I am ashamed to admit I have not visited the forum or posted for some time - not long enough some may say. Liz and I are currently three weeks into our five week tour of New Zealand's North island. Absolutely loving the country, stunning scenery and great people. Still looking forward to our...

Re: clifftop boardwalk

Hi Pato. Glad to see you are supporting the first, real and by far the best ukulele orchestra that is THE UKULELE ORCHESTRA OF GREAT BRITAIN. And most definitely not the lesser known group jumping on the band wagon that is The UK Ukulele Orchestra. I have seen the Ukulele Orchestra Of Great Britain ...

Re: Lunatic staff at A Rede

Hi Destroyer. If it is the usual routine they go through I think you will find the owner is one of the "comedians" out front. He is the tall skinny one, his name escapes me but he is a nice chap. The main guy who hardly ever serves at tables is the main culprit for the cheesey lines in an attempt to...

Re: Barking dog in the town

Michael, as you know I also rented Mike's villa over at ADM and "experienced" the same two dogs. I also rented another villa across the road and having had two years of the incessant barking from these two particular dogs I vowed not to return to that particular area of town. It does appear barking ...

Re: Fair FX Euro rate

Fearing a "yes" win in Scotland and a possible devaluing of the pound, last night I went to load my cash passport with my New Zealand dollars at 1.89 NZD to the £. However, the system was under maintenance so I could get the job done. Went at lunch time today and got the NZD at 1.93 to the £ - over ...
