Arthropods of the world Unite...

...You have nothing to lose but your exo-skeleton.

The Gorse Fox and Silver Vixen stopped at Sabor Canario for lunch. This hostelry was accessed through the back of a shop, and occupied one of the courtyards we found so enchanting. Taking our seat and reviewing the menu we decided on a plate of prawns each and a mixed salad. (This was the special of the day).

The food soon arrived in a small mountain of prawns on each plate. We tucked in. It soon looked like a battle zone. Shell casings piling up, the Silver Vixen spattered with lemon juice, and the juice from the prawns. She had of course been wearing a new white blouse... GF is, at this point, accepting no blame for the prawn shrapnel but suspects this will hit the laundry basket pretty sharpish!!! (I'm sure it is nothing that cannot be removed by Hydrogen Peroxide and Washing liquid).

So we recommend the prawns - but remember they can be messy.
