Shalom 2 - Portugal 2015

So having tonsilitis sucks but having tonsilitis whilst on holiday really sucks. And that is exactly what I have had which is really less ideal because I would say the level of excitement for the holiday was pretty high. I mean there was even a countdown for the trip to Portugal with Lee, Sarah and Lloyd which began a good 30+ days before we were due to arrive. 

One of the worst things about tonsilitis is that you can't really eat and you don't have much of an appetite. But yesterday was the first day that I started to feel 'normal' again. 

After a day of hangovers from the other three and a very warm game of crazy golf, we went to Shalom 2 which is tucked down a side street in old town Albruferia. 

It's like walking into a little cave with curved walls and exposed brick and dim lighting. For starter I had the garlic prawns and for main the chicken satay with rice. They were both so good!!! 

The dessert was a Nutella brownie which I had to share as I was already at bursting point. The brownie did not disappoint mainly because it was definitely rammed full of Nutella. A crispy outer layer then the inside was was gooey but more sticky than usual because of the Nutella. It also came with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. 

I definitely think it was the right way to go with being able to eat again. Also the service and price were fab!
