Here’s Joe!

This 22-year old Scotsman runs, wonderfully, The Shack in Blanes. He has helped there since he was 16 and been in sole charge since his parents retired last year. It’s a full-on, fourteen-hour a day place and he brings a great personalised touch, emulated by all his staff! Both Dd and I were incredulous when he shared his age, not for looks but by the sheer aplomb with which he runs this show!

In sharp contrast, just for our record, to the very poor service we had at Es Blanca which we had booked for a nice Sunday lunch and left before eating.
