    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

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.

    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

    I have to imagine what the price is in Tenerife. I heard it was 7.50 a dish, but what was the price of the Sprite. What were the taxes. What was the service charge? I am not going to continue to view these videos and not know what the total bill is at the end. The potatoes are a rip off at 7.50. 80 percent of vegetables are imported into Tenerife. Are these potatoes really grown there? Start showing a picture of the bills.
