GOOD NEWS : Restaurante CASA PEPA * ( Ondara ) Recently re-furbished - see www . capepa . es BonAmb ( Jávea ’ s 2-Michelin-starred restaurant ) has a very close association with the wonderful Casa Pepa , the one-starred Michelin restaurant in the orange groves outside Ondara . Both should be on everyone ’ s top list of gastro-experiences . They are helping to consolidate the Marina Alta ’ s No . 3 position in the league of Spain ’ s top gastronomic areas !! [ In Michelin stars we are now only surpassed by the Costa Brava and the Pays Basque ]
==================== With a Michelin star , this is this writer ’ s other favourite restaurant . Its rise , over the last 30 years , to its current Michelin status , is a labour of love and hard work and a few months ago we paid tribute to its founder , Pepa Romans , for her memorable and wonderful achievement . Her daughter had always been a central part of the cuisine and has undertaken to continue to take this superb and beautiful establishment into the future in partnership with the award-winning chef from BonAmb , Alberto Ferruz .
Marvellous 9-course gastronomic menu c . € 85 ( and with appropriate wines served with each course , € 140 ).
