Unfortunately hardly anyone will watch it though as most of my subscribers are like me and like English food. That's why there's so may British Bars and Restaurants here. X
Lee I would be full soon as the plate was put in front of me. Put the veg in a separate dish and gravy in a sauce boat. Make sure when you’re in Fuengirola go to the Marina and fish alley and please go up to Mijas it’s beautiful 20 min bus ride. Also pop into Estark 92 just outside fFuengirola on way back to Benamadena. Love to know how many subscribers know the place,but I was single and lived in Fungerolia.loving vids bringing back lots of Memories so Thanks Tony.
I know I’m probably in the minority here, but you’ve gone to Spain and so far we’ve had, English brekkie, fish and chips and now a roast, I appreciate that’s what you are known for, but was expecting a bit more variety. Will always continue to watch as love your videos, was just an observation and certainly don’t want to offend those loving the content
Went to Benalmadena last year for a few days and thought it was great. Walked down to Torremilinos also and it was much better than I remember it being.
Solid 9 out of 10 Lee very nice had great holidays in benalmadena and torromolinos personally prefer torromolinos more cosmopolitan benalmadena more brittish
Can't quite believe this Lee but my hubby and I with 3 friends are sitting on the big table in front of you, I have my back to you! I would have loved to have said hello!! I've always loved the Wigan Bar for my Sunday Roast and we always go there every time we visit Benalmadena (which is quite regularly! I had turkey as well, scummy! ❤
If you want the Best Sunday Lunch on the Costa Del sol you need to try the Carvery at Montemar Torremolinos Go back as many times as you want including meat Amazing Place
As to your question as to what's our go-to roast dish (meat)... depends on the day for me, and how I'm feeling. Turkey is the dish I would least choose though (love it... just not really a roast dinner thing for me). Pork (has to be with crackling), beef, or lamb... and I'm very happy. If I was facing the gallows, and was afforded just one last meal, it'd be a roast dinner with all the trimmings - apple crumble with custard and (to push the boat out) ice-cream for pudding. Now I'm salivating! 🤤
As others have stated there’s only one place for a roast dinner and thats the carvery. Beats anything you will have in the Uk. All fresh ingredients and everything homemade. It’s in between toremolinos and Benalmadena. You will not be disappointed.
That was a proper Sunday Dinner, all you were short was a warm pint of Bitter. So it seems something decent came out of Wigan after all. LOL 10 outta 10! Oh BTW we need Arthur Scargill back!
Good to know that like me you love turkey, a lot of people don't as they say it's dry. I suggest that those are the people that don't know how to cook it. 10/10 from me.
Definitely a 10 from me. On holiday my dad used to go down to "count the waves" - that's what he told us, maybe a lonesome beer was somewhere in that conversation.
I call it the same Lee and always will lol. The prices on their menu are very good really, a great variety of options and a Liver & Onions which I love. A nice roast pork belly would go down well with all the trimmings. Must say the turkey roast looked pretty tidy and wouldn't be able to walk far after eating it lol. I would have to stay for an hour or so after to wash it down with a few pints. Great work man.
Another great vlog there Lee and that Roast dinner looked lovely. I'm not a fan of Cranberry Sauce and i like cauliflower cheeae rather than cauliflower on its own. I do enjoy turkey but would have opted for beef myself. But they're all my own personal preferences which doesn't take away how good this meal looked. 9.5/10 for me mate and glad you enjoyed. Thanks for sharing buddy and will catch up on some more vids tonorrow👌👍
A plate of deliciousness, lovely thick sliced turkey, fresh vegetables. The gravy could've been thicker and a 2nd Yorkshire pudding would've been nice too. Overall a beautiful healthy roast dinner👍👌😁10/10
MacMaster I used go to that Wigan Bar 20 years ago when on golf holidays Always the best breakfast on that strip Shows how good it is still trading 20 years later
I just don’t understand Lee why anybody would want to eat a roast dinner (basically a Christmas dinner) in Spain in summer, especially when you filmed beautiful looking fish on the bbq, that’s what you should be eating,I’m baffled!!!
100%, love benalmadena, unfortunately after years if staying at Sarah sunset, with my husbands mobility we can't go there any longer . The tour bus is good takes you all over and up to the cable car. Enjoy.❤
Have a great holiday always entertaining us everywhere with a happy smile always a great humble human being with a kind heart a great utuber always cheering us up always bless you always a big fan always
Looks scrumptious hubby loves beef I’m a turkey girl and yes got to have a Yorkshire pudding mmmm got to give it a 9 only because I would prefer to put gravy on myself Great location Great price
I've paused it before you have given your rating. I've got a feeling you'll give it a 10/10. A few things for improvement on the roast dinner, but I doubt you'll find better in the Costa del So. So, here's my faults with it: Roasties didn't look crispy, and were lacking depth. Would've preferred cheese/cheese sauce on the couliflower - and it didn't look roasted. Carrots don't look roasted (and a bit of glazing, such as honey, would complement them). Cabbage isn't required. Positives: Portion size (very generous!). Price... decent. Turkey looked spot on. Generous portion of gravy. Yorkshire pudding looked bang on, as did the mashed potato and stuffing. They serve John Smiths (probably not the ale to have in Spain, given the weather, but definitely complements a roast)! English-owned (and from the mighty Red Rose 🌹). Family-owned. It's a YES from me! 👍 I'd give it a 9.5 (but would reduce the rating to an 8.5 if it was located back home). I think it's deserving of its best roast dinner in the area, and I'd definitely go there if I was in the area. Always happy to support family owned (and English... and will even stretch to supporting British. 🙂)
That dinner looked amazing and worth a 10 from your description, been to benelmadena and torrmalenos yrs ago and preferred benalmadena, must have made many changes over the yrs, love the tiled paths/pavements they use, thanks for the walk around.
My mum would have loved that Lee with all that gravy but not me , I've always got to remember to ask for it without. We went to The Carvery Company at Benalmadena its fabulous and obviously you put on what you want .I'd highly recommend it .
Been in there for Breakfast a few year ago and it was really nice. Good to know it's still there pal. In regards to my favourite place, not an easy one but probably Fuengirolla TBH. Rule of thumb on the Costa Del Sol is that it gets classier the further along you go in the direction of Marbella from the airport. As previously mentioned, don't forget to have a look in at Cabopino if you get the chance as it's a really nice harbour with a great vibe.
Yes great looking roast Lee only one nit pick do not like gravy in the yorkshire pudding makes it soggy like them crunchy but loads of meat and it looked great so a 10 from me.
I must take my wife in to Costa Del Sol and try all of this! We will do it the next spring! Thank's for your great videos. We wach them together!! The best from me! From Oslo Norway!🙂
Good evening Lee. It really looked so Tasty and Cooked with Love and Affection. Deffinately not a Wetherspoons meal. Again, another Beautiful Family run establishment on the sea front. What could be better than that Lee. A perfect Sunday Roast in Spain, in a Beautiful resort, Excellent Restaurant, really Friendly atmosphere, Lovely people to dine with. Every piece of Food was cooked to Perfection. I could see, by your very Happy facial expressions Lee, You absolutely Loved that meal. Well, here is my score for the Establishment and Food.... 10++. 😃😃😃😃👍👍👍👍👍🍛🍛🍛🍛🍛🍛
I was in Benalmadena in the mid 90s and it didn't have a lot going for it. Few bars along the road there and some very dated hotels (one of which we were in). Looks like they have done a power of development with some nice looking hotels and the harbour/walkway area looks really nice. Looks a nice resort now and even back then it was a better area than Torremolinos which was a bit of dive but with decent nightlife.
I agree with you Lee, have stayed in both, as Benalmadina has that extra something about it. Lovely seafront and plenty of nice restaurants and bars. A little bit more upmarket. Reminds me of difference between Los Cristianos/Costa Adele and Playa de las Americas.
Great to meet the Macmaster in Torremolinos and to be included in his TH-cam. after seeing his posts on Benalmedina I think I'll go there next year instead of Torremolinos.
I still say one of the best sunday roasts ive had abroad is the Yorkshire pride in benidorm but that did look great lee those roasters are exactly how i like them! Got to agree with a score of 10 on this one 👌👍
Controversial i know, but for years we've stayed at the Tui Blu Rivera, when we arrive we always go to the Wigan for a roast dinner no matter what day it is because we know this will be our last roast for a couple of weeks . The prerequisite is a few drinks in Palm Five served by the delightful Rita
Looks very nice, although cauliflower with a cheesey white sauce would be spot on, instead of lots of prepoured gravy to compensate for the dry ingredients :)
Hi lee going abroad can be expensive it’s cheaper to stop in England if you are going to eat fish and chips and have a Sunday lunch it’s a bit boring
Hey Janice. How's Phil? X
@@TheMacMaster lm not Janie our Phil just would have been nice to see some thing different
I'm off to Malaga Tomorrow and am gonna have some Tapas x
Unfortunately hardly anyone will watch it though as most of my subscribers are like me and like English food. That's why there's so may British Bars and Restaurants here. X
Also might be cheaper to stay in England but the weather sucks in UK. X
Thanks Lee, you have spared me from ever going there and enjoying the spectacle of our fellow countrymen at play in British Occupied Spain

Went to Benalmadena last year for a few days and thought it was great. Walked down to Torremilinos also and it was much better than I remember it being.
Benalmadena is my preferred location in Costa del Sol.
We enjoyed watching this today and your humour is on form again. The roast dinner looked so good.
Mister Macmaster could tell by your reaction how much ya enjoyed this & yeah it did look bloody tasty 😋 🎉
Solid 9 out of 10 Lee very nice had great holidays in benalmadena and torromolinos personally prefer torromolinos more cosmopolitan benalmadena more brittish

We love the Wigan bar - spent lots of afternoons in there - the all day breakfast is bloody good too!
Love benalmadena great place for a holiday.

Looked a very tasty Sunday lunch I would give it 9 gravy should be separate and have what you want.
Looked a great spread of food. Plenty of Turkey, good selection of veggies. has to be 10/10.
Looks lovely 😍
The carvery, in torremolinos is a beautiful place for a roast too (available every day)

I was a miner in '84, Don't disagree with you.
Your hair is like action man's 😁
Glade you enjoyed it.👍
Looked lovely , I would prefer a gravy boat on the side but it’s a 9.6 for me
Good to know that like me you love turkey, a lot of people don't as they say it's dry. I suggest that those are the people that don't know how to cook it. 10/10 from me.

Flipping heck. Your back in Spain 🇪🇸.
Gravy should be served in a separate jug not on your plate so you decide how much you want 😏
That’s your opinion,but not everybody would agree with you
I prefer gravy separate in jug not already poured on for me
I agree
Agreed
I prefer mine served on the plate....

Good grub, 10 all day long👍
well Lee i think you got your monys worth there .and i love the walk abouts.
That lookedca proper Sunday roast mynold mate great video Lee, spot on
Nice looking roast there, Lee
On looks and price, it's a 9 from me.

I will mark Sunday Roast at The Wigan Bar La Isla 10 out of 10 The Macmaster
Lovely weather Lee, windy, wet and miserable here in the east midlands!
It looked ok, I prefer my gravy in a gravy boat so I can pour it where I want then its not swimming on the plate. I’d score it 8.5 or 9 out of 10.
Looks nice Lee.Good solid vlog too. Keep up the rate good work youth 😁😁👍👍
Dont like mash with my roast, prefer a gravy boat and love my lamb, just me, that looks 8 out of 10, cheers again Mac 😊
making me very hungry...looked great! 9/10
It looks perfect but I've to deduct 1 point because you made me look at cauliflower 😵💫😉
I must take my wife in to Costa Del Sol and try all of this! We will do it the next spring! Thank's for your great videos. We wach them together!! The best from me! From Oslo Norway!🙂
Looked nice to be fair lee 🫶🫶
Sat here starving watching you eat cooked breakfast and roast lol 😆
I personally prefer Belemadena and Mijas, but always remember the Park de la Paloma is great. Beef and Yorkshires with gravy please

Was there last week for Sunday roast 10 out of 10❤😊
That dinner was absolutely spot on
Could have had a good go at it
But ditched the stuffing
Don’t like it
Definitely looked delicious
always stayed in Benalmadena and found everything i needed for a great holiday
I had a bet with myself that you would end up there it really is good and to be able to get it every day as well is a bonus.
ALWAYS NEED a Sunday dinner!👌😋💓 And a Sunday dinner vlog! 😏
Looked a great Dinner Lee. Love these Costa del sol videos
I think it looked spot on home made and roasties better than some posh restaurants in the uk
To be honest I’d give that a 10 as well it really really looks fantastic and the table looks nice and clean which you don’t often get in the uk
wow it looked kinda like thanksgiving!!! yum i give it a 10 out of 10 ive never seen a ball of stuffing before lol but everything looked amazing
Hi lee can't beat a Sunday roast mate looks delicious 8 out of 10 for me looks a lovely place too eat too 😊
that's a really good size roast, turkey looked perfect, look forward to seeing the next one
Nice to see you on the mend
I agree with you Lee, have stayed in both, as Benalmadina has that extra something about it. Lovely seafront and plenty of nice restaurants and bars. A little bit more upmarket. Reminds me of difference between Los Cristianos/Costa Adele and Playa de las Americas.
Ribeye joint of beef, leg of lamb or leg of pork with plenty of crackling is my take on a Sunday lunch/dinner. Rubbing my belly thinking about it 🤣
Top video again 👍
lee perfect apart from green beans or broccoli and peas mate flavour change also colour you know im right! great vids crack on old fruit!
Yeah, a bit of broccoli wouldn't have gone amiss.
Looks a good Sunday,I Roast & goog weather there as well. 👍

Hi Lee, that looked superb mate, I'll definitely be going there, I'll be asking for extra gravy though, I like gallons of it 😄
Looks very nice, although cauliflower with a cheesey white sauce would be spot on, instead of lots of prepoured gravy to compensate for the dry ingredients :)
Hi Lee I say benalmadena like you do
That's it now decided after watching this video it's a eat out at a carvery tonight even though it's a Wednesday
Good review Lee. Roast looked nice, probably worth an 8.
(By the way - at our age we have partners, not girlfriends 😂)
It’s looked ok 5 out of 10 for me I’d hate to try the worst if that’s the best
Looks like a 10 to me Lee. I would choose pork or lamb. xx
