Obama to vacation at a posh hotel in Spain, where should he eat?
rubysmarabella ^ | 7/25/10 | Nachum

Posted on 07/25/2010 7:29:34 PM PDT by Nachum

Cue up the music from "Life Styles of the Rich and Famous"! The Obamas are going to bring the kids to Spain. They will be staying in a city called 'Marbella'. You know it takes a lot out of a boy king to have to deal with oil spills, two wars, and JournoList! He has to go where he is loved and appreciated: Europe.

So, any suggestions where they and the kids should eat? Any good Spanish/Muslim hang outs? How about deserts and soul food? Certainly freepers can come up with a few good suggestions.

I found a site with a few restaurants at the link.:

MARISQUERIA LA PESQUERA Plaza de la Victoria, Marbella Old Town, Marbella Tel: 952 765 170

SKANDIES Avda. Antonio Belon, 26 (behind the lighthouse), Marbella Tel: 952 776 323

WOK WANG C/ Camilo Jose Cela, C.C. Plaza del Mar, Planta 0, Local 1, Marbella Tel: 952 925 478

ZAFFERANO C/ Gloria 11, Casco Antiguo, Marbella Tel: 952 863 125

EL PATIO DE LOS PERFUMES C/Aduar 1, Casco Antiguo, Marbella Tel: 952 828 650

CASANIS C/Ancha, 8, Marbella Tel: 952 900 450

TONY ROMA'S Ctra de Cadiz km176, Marbella Tel: 952 765 533 www.tonyromas.com

MESSINA Avda. Severo Ochoa, 12 Marbella Tel: 952 864 895 www.restaurantemessina.com

ARETE C/ Mediterráneo, Edif. Mediterráneo, 1, Marbella Tel: 952 777 334 www.restaurantearete.com

PASTA ITALIA C/Jacinto Benavente 33, Marbella Tel: 952 823 121 www.pastaitalia.info

A Boy King has to keep his strength up, otherwise the golf game goes to 'pot'... er or something.

How about the toilet in one of your public restrooms?

He is making us eat $hit. He should be made to do the same.

Cafe El Cid in Barcelona. I hear it’s a real hangout for the Saracins. He’d fit right in. /s

There won’t be any Q, Chinese or pasta...at least in public. Which one is the organic vegan joint?

How about a Soup Kitchen or a Homeless Shelter? He’s sure got plenty of our citizens eating there.

Maybe he should support American chains that have outlets in Spain?

Do McDonalds, Taco Bell or Subway have Spanish franchisees?

I guess Wendy’s and Dominos are out of the question for Obama because of their former owners’ pro-life positions. But there are plenty of other American companies working abroad.

OMG! Marbella?

That place is beautiful! I love it and need to go back.

Must be nice to be king.

Would be hilarious if Juan Carlos publicly dressed Barry down ala Hugo Chavez.

That was hilarious!

Arcadia National Park? We have to post a restaurant guide for his 'One-ness'! Matter of fact, we need to post his vacation itinerary. Hmmm.. Arcadia National Park this week

Then in, what , 14 days to Martha's Vinyard, and then Spain after that. Let's post the itinerary and dining guide.

To be helpful, of course

He should be only allowed to eat at McD’s and nowhere else. Their food is $h!t and most people are being financially broken to where the only thing they can afford is $h!t for food !

The first family is scheduled to visit the Gulf coast at some point in August. This, of course for political gain ... the kids go swimming amongst the tar balls briefly then depart on AF One for southern Spain. What’s wrong with this picture?

There’s a Tony Roma’s listed. That’s an American chain. And no doubt the regular fast food chains nearby.

I really think they should vacation in Florida or elsewhere on the Gulf Coast. Wasn’t FLOTUS just down there telling Americans to come on down? Will they EVER practice what they preach?

I’ve been to Marbella, but I didn’t get to stay at a 4- or 5- property... hopefully there’ll be lots of photos taken so we can live vicariously through “O” and his excellent circus adventures.

Why not have kobe beef flown in for dinner? That’s what they do in the WH with all the prime beef grown in the USA.
I hear the Mrs. likes Russian caviar when she lunches in NY.

Alot of Muslim's want to restore the Caliphate and seat it in Spain.

Maybe the boy king is going there to pick out the residence and furniture?

Obama’s going to Spain in September. 11 August-9 September: Ramadan.

The Muslim army of Tarik ibn Ziyad landed in Spring 711 at The Pillars of Hercules, which we know today as Gibraltar. The name ‘Gilbraltar’ is a variation of the Arabic name that was then given to the place: Jebel ut Tarik, or Tarik’s Hill!

The Visigothic Christian King Rodrigo fought the Muslim army at the Guadalete river on July 19, 711, he lost as the traitor Count Julian withheld his troops at a critical juncture and during negotiations other traitorous troops captured Rodrigo. His severed head was stuck on a pole and paraded before his troops, it was then sent to the Grand Mosque in Damascus. It is the Grand Mosque of Damascus that was the model for the Grand Mosque of Cordoba.

Gibraltar and the Guadalete river are both only a few miles from Marabella.

Oh, I see I confused things.

What I meant to be clear is that, (1) the claim is that Obama will vacation in Marabella in August. And (2) 11 August through 9 September 2010 is Ramadan.
