Good people,
A recent visit to Stanley is not complete without a hearty hefty and huge meal at Spiaggia. I have been there before and Rolf the owner recognised me from the previous visits. He was quick to offer a suggestion - the Steak Sandwich - which I happliy accepted. It was a only a few minutes until an oversized steak sandwich with chips and salad arrived. I often regard a steak sandwich with suspision - I tend to wonder why a perfectly good steak needs to be hidden inside two pieces of bread. My fears were unfounded - the steak was thick and round and had no bone nor gristle. It was all steak, all edible, all good. We are often faced with problems in life and some problems are good to have - like how does one eat a sandwich which is too big to politely fit in ones mouth. The plate was crowded with a generous supply of chips, also known as French Fries. The chips at Spiaggia are crispy with a firm outer shell that has a rough texture of crunchy potato bits on the outside. I like to use a lot of salt on the chips at Spiaggia because the rough texture tends to hold the salt and create a combination of seasoning, potato and clean light oil. The salad was colourful with an assortment of exotic leaves, shapes and delicacies that made me pause and wonder. The entire salad was genorously dosed in Balsamic vinegar.
Spiaggia remains a favourite at Stanley.
