The best Chinese meal

Chinese restaurant
We do love a Chinese meal every so often and there is plenty of choice in the area there are two wok buffets and several other restaurants with Menus. We prefer the Nan King Garden in Benimar, opposite the Dutch butchers, they have air conditioning but we prefer to sit outside and watch the world go by, we nearly always go for the Menu del Dia the price ranging from €4.50 to €7:50 per person, This includes Sangria, prawn crackers, starter, main course(good choice), Coffee or Icecream, included is Half bottle of red or white wine and Shnapps while you are paying the bill.

Wine Cocktails


Ive just found another way of drinking red wine, "Calimocho" is 50/50 red wine and coke served over ice, it is popular at the "botellon" street drinking gatherings, a variation of the drink is to add a dash of blackberry liqueur.
A similar drink is "Tinto de verano", which is already very popular in the Costa Blanca,it is half red wine and half "Casera", a mildly sweet sparkling water. Another drink is to mix 50/50 white wine and lemon-flavoured soft drink also very refreshing.
