Lunch at Asiatico Jing, Torrox Costa

Proof was provided today that Torrox Costa possesses many of the finest eateries East of Malaga. Part of a relaxing day out at the beach with long-standing friends of mine and my son consisted of a menu del dia lunch at chinese restaurant Asiatico Jing. A three-course substantial quality meal was provided for a mere 5.95 euros each. For starters we chose Chinese salad and a light savoury soup. The main course consisted of chicken with almond sauce, beef with vegetables and a spicy sauce chicken. All accompanied by egg fried special rice that was cooked perfectly. Dessert was a choice of icecream, flan or a cup of coffee.

I’m not a lover of chinese food, but I was impressed by the high standard of this restaurant’s cuisine. In my opinion, there is nothing more off-putting than having food served with an over-abundance of oil, sauce, salt or monosodium glutamate food flavourings which, unfortunately, is the case with dishes prepared in many chinese restaurants. The food at the Asiatico Jing chinese restaurant does not fall into that category, and was deliciously faultless.

Asiatico Jing was busy – as always – despite the ‘credit crunch’. Its popularity is due to its first-class cuisine. I have now dined twice at this restaurant, will do so again, and highly recommend it.
