    Seems like this would be better posted as a TA review, or maybe on mumset.

    When we first started going over 20 years ago, most of the restaurants in the resort were local type cuisine but they've all gone now. Next time we go we might see what the food's like away from the tourist areas.

    • Burgers in the supposedly top burger joint were tasteless and had a strange chewy consistency.
    • The best steak house was equally disappointing. I've had better (non-finest) steak from Tesco.
    • Pastries in the best cafe/teashop were mediocre.
    Shan't be trusting TA reviews ever again.

    The problem is that your destination was rated 1 star.

    I have never, ever used Trip Advisor for restaurants.

    I tend to Google reviews.
