:D Hi,
Last Tuesday we went to the orange restaurant and had a brilliant time
there. The food was fabulous and the service outstanding. I would particularly like to say thanks to the waitress who works there (Anna?) however I cannot find a E-MAIL adres of the restaurant. Does anyone know the mailadres of the orange bar?

Thanks!

whereabouts?

Hi Elle,

The "Restaurante Orange" is located next to Holiday resort e.g. Villapark Quinta Do Paraiso. I believe the area is called 'Mato SerrĂ£o'.

I found an url on the internet but unfortunately no mail adres is mentioned.

Thanks

Yes "l'Orange" is excellent and is close to Vila Nova Resort Mato Serrao - its always been v.g. when we've been there.
Don't think they have an email address but their telno is 282-357.297.
See food section for reviews.

Mmmm, obviously one is not allowed to post urls. Well, the url begins
with www. then algarve-restaurants. then com, /orange/index.html.

Hope this post is allowed :lol:

:D Thanks Gordon and Sandy!

I did indeed find the telephone number. However I just wanted to send the waitress there an e-mail for a particular reason. At the end of our fabulous dinner there she suddenly asked me to go out that evening. I was very impressed by the girl the whole evening but did not expect her to ask me this. I was surprised. The only thing I could say was "maybe". (I have a rather shy character). Afterwards I would have liked to say more to her and explain that I possibly could not come because of my early flight the following morning. I just want to tell her that I found it very sweet of her to ask me and that she seems like a very nice girl. Under other circumstrances I would definately have wanted to go out with her and get to know her better.

Cheers, Rob

Hi Rob,

I shall be going to L'Orange in the next few days and know Anna quite well. (No, not that well) Do you want me to ask her for an email address?

(or I could ask the young man who works there whose name escapes me for the moment if that would be perferable)

Let me know either way

Graham

PS Let me know by private message if that is easier and I could reply in the same way - maybe safer than giving out young ladies emails over the web!

"Mmmm, obviously one is not allowed to post urls. "

I know... that site is mine and for some reason Steen has blocked the URL.

Anyway, the girl you talk about is called Angela, she is from the Ukrain, and married to Anatoliy, who is a waiter at Mitz. We know them both quite well. Her English is rather good but apparently not good enough... Pretty sure she did not ask you out on a date but was merely inquiring about your plans for the night.

Sorry to disappoint you :cry:

. . . I am guessing that you haven't paid to advertise on this site, and therefore it would be unfair to those who have to use the forum as a platform for free advertising . . . although if you have paid, then clearly you have a legitimate complaint and need to take Steen to task.

Maddi :)

p.s. to Rob (number 1) only you and Anna know what she said, and it is for her to disappoint you, if that is indeed the case. As you are back in the UK and not going to see her again anyway, I would hold on onto your version of events to bring a smile to your face and keep you warm in the long winter ahead :wink: .

Hi Rob,

I do know the waiter at Mitz who happens to be a nice guy. We had dinner there. Great place, good food! (too bad they currently hold a building site as a view though)

I don't think we are talking about the same girl here as the waitress I am talking about told me she is Portuguese and has been living in Portugal all of her life. (She has a Portuguese father and a Dutch mother). Her Portuguese is fluent and she speaks Dutch rather well.

Anyway I do want to thank you for your reply.

All the best,

Rob

Dear maddi,

If what you mentioned turns out to be the case I will definately do so. It's a nice memory to hold onto with a smile on my face, keeping me warm inside during the long, long winter......... ( wow, you seem like a real poetic character!) :D

Cheers,

Robin

. . . poetic or "desperate" . . . I am not sure, but what I do know is if something happens to me that makes me smile and glow inside, then I want to identify what triggered those feelings, remember it and hold it close to me, perhaps more so on days when things are looking a lot less bright.

For some of us, it is not about actually doing something but the joy in knowing that we could :wink:

. . . it is about being passionate . . . you need to uncover the full range of emotions - sadness, anger, joy, excitement - assuming you express all these emotions appropriately . . . then you are a well-rounded and passionate person who gets the most out of life!

Without pain, how do you recognise pleasure; without despair, how do you recognise joy, etc.

Perhaps a bit deep and meaningful for a thursday afternoon, but everything we do is about the relationship between our thoughts, feelings and behaviour - between stimulus and response is a space and therein lies our freedom to choose our response ( some anonymous guests chose to be arsey for example). (Cognitive-Behavioural theory in a one sentence easy lesson - somehow I am guessing the purists may be horrified!!)
