Kudos Financial Investments

I met up today with some of the guys running Kudos Financial Investments in Marbella. This is an interesting new company which is a bit like a "Dragons Den". They take new products and back them, manufacture them and market them for the inventors.

They have some really interesting new products that they are bringing to the market soon but I am sworn to secrecy so I can't tell you anything about them at this stage.

I think companies like this are great for the coast. It's refreshing to see non-real esate businesses setting up in Spain.

I wish them well and will follow their progress over the next few months with interest.

Cheap to eat in Marbella

What do you do when you get up on a Sunday morning, the sun's shining brightly and it feels quite warm? Yep, you go to Marbella.

Some of you will know that I've gradually warmed to Marbella (I didn't really think much of it before). The place is full of "interesting" people and it has a real buzz about it. The "paseo maritimo" is really nice and people spend lazy weekends strolling up and down it.

We went there yesterday morning and it was so hot that there were even people sunbathing on the beach! We let the kids play around in a park on the bearch for a while and then headed off to a restaurant on the paseo maritimo that we've been to before....and we know is good.

It's called "El Bodegon" and if you're ever strolling around Marbella you should check this place out. They do some excellent "montaditos" to eat which are basically like mini rolls with a huge selection of fillings. They do tapas too and full meals. AND they do the BEST "patatas bravas" in the world....you have got to try those. Anyway we stuffed oursleves silly and the bill came to just 26 Euros, which included drinks.

So if you're in Marbella, you're hungry, you don't want to spend too much money and you want really good food then check out "El Bodegon".....you won't be disappointed.

Has anyone realised yet that I seem to go on about food a lot?? ;)
