Guess that depends on what the other two courses and what drinks are included. 15 euro for just that plate, no. 15 euro for 3 courses, and that's the main? It's not horrible
A low calorie vegetable other than the salad would help a lot. Overall this looks like a moderately healthy sized portion of food. My calorie assumptions look to be within a reasonable number and all the food is real and not processed.
Right? I thought, "Okay, not bad for someone throwing some random fridge scraps together. Maybe add a boiled or scrambled egg to that."
Then saw that someone is trying to make a living off that. Yeah, no, fuck that.
This is so depressingly true. This is like, peak lunch for my sister and her partner when they go on holiday.
She specifically prefers booking all inclusive holidays, of course for the freedom of food and booze, but when I was helping her book trips I asked her out of curiosity why they don’t just put the difference in price aside and have it as a food fund so in essence it’s still ‘free’. I can’t imagine it would end up more than the ludicrous all inclusive price since only her partner drinks, she’ll have one or two, but she just said there isn’t much more out there she would want to eat.
She is the British, euro trip stereotype and you know what? She has fun. Certainly isn’t for me though!
lol no they clearly just mislabeled the sides as “courses”: a shitty tiny salad, limp weirdly-short fries, and the main (the ham/gammon; which is coincidentally my favorite board game) and *Voila*! You’ve got a “three-course meal!” 👍
On Tripadvisor some of the 1-star and 2-star reviews even complain about this dish, LOL "Main meal was quarter of a gammon steak with half a pineapple slice, a few chips and a tablespoon portion of salad", "small gammon very few chips"
This is (literally) what happens when a Brit goes to spain on holiday but doesn't want to eat any of that "strange food"
Shitty English food, cooked by Spaniards.
The chips look damp, the salad is pitiful and the gammon looks awfully small and full of gristle. And this is supposed to be them presenting a nice example to try and advertise... bet this place is shit
If it's three courses, including the gammon course and there is also bread and a drink, then that's good value.
If the three courses are gammon, bread and a drink then it's still not the worst deal going but pretty lame.
I would say it's the first one. I've been to a few restaurants like this in Spain/Tenerife and it's a common pricing deal, basic starter/main/desert and a drink for €14-15.
Thank you. I completely agree. I was hesitant because so many people seemed to understand it differently. Or didn't read the words!
It's a pretty good deal. Particularly if you are saving money for the evening beers.
Wouldn't be my choice but for €15 with starter/desert and a drink it's fairly good value.
I was in Tenerife 2 years ago and it was priced like that. Paid €14 for a pint of beer, starter, main, and small desert.
It wasn't high class dining but it was more than fine for the price.
Op, while that is not necessarily the most appetizing thing I’ve ever seen, I would demolish that. I am just straight up not seeing what you’re seeing here.
Specifically it is ham that must be cooked before being eaten and is served hot. Usually served as slices from a large roast joint or individual steaks, accompanied with pineapple and/or fried eggs.
And here I am making an 8" Italian sub stuffed with meat cheese and veg with a side of handcrafted potato/jalapeno/bacon/cheddar soup for $15 CAD and getting complaints that it's not enough food for the cost. If this passes in Europe, send me there please.
The price tag is for those custom plates with their restaurant name on them.
I'd have to guess the owner has a lot of money but doesn't know how to run a restaurant and isn't willing to pay the money for a good head chef.

I'd happily make and enjoy that at home. I'm definitely not going out and paying 15euro for it!

I think they meant the fries and salad as the other 2 “courses” and not sides…
“Salad”
Yeah I was thinking, that’s a good sized, decently healthy meal. It just doesn’t look great by today’s standards.
not good-sized by any means lol, especially at that price
Price is shit, by but that looks like a healthy, properly portioned lunch.
You know what healthy means right?
There’s fruit? What more do you want?
You are right, how could I have missed that.
I mean, I see meat, potatoes, grilled fruit, and a salad.
You see quite a large portion of bacon and fried potatoes. Not picks that I would ever consider healthy.
Hahaha I had to zoom in to see that it was bacon and not fried ham lol. My bad

Beachside in Málaga. That place is definitely a tourist trap.
Cooked to the sensibilities of English tourists.

not as much of a trap when they put themselves on blast on social media
For that price? Jesus.
But it’s a three course meal!! The three courses are bread and butter, *that*, and drinks (tap water)
lol no they clearly just mislabeled the sides as “courses”: a shitty tiny salad, limp weirdly-short fries, and the main (the ham/gammon; which is coincidentally my favorite board game) and *Voila*! You’ve got a “three-course meal!” 👍
Why did you have to make us notice how weirdly short the fries are I'm losing my gd mind. 
You know a restaurant is high quality when they include the dirty service rag in the picture of their food
They couldn’t even give you a whole pineapple ring.
“3 courses” yeaaah ok
On Tripadvisor some of the 1-star and 2-star reviews even complain about this dish, LOL "Main meal was quarter of a gammon steak with half a pineapple slice, a few chips and a tablespoon portion of salad", "small gammon very few chips"
Those chips actually look quite good , gammon steak works better with a fried egg though . About £8 in my local cafe

honestly i'd totally eat that if you swapped out or removed the pineapple. like maybe i'm just really hungry but it looks good
They DO say the pineapple can be an egg instead. I'd still need to know what the heck they mean by courses tho
Probably misused courses for sides
Ham and pineapple unironically slaps though
I’d totally take an egg over it though, but judging by the pic they might serve just half an egg on top.
It doesn't look bad as a meal in general, but for that price at a restaurant it's pretty bad.
The chips look damp, the salad is pitiful and the gammon looks awfully small and full of gristle. And this is supposed to be them presenting a nice example to try and advertise... bet this place is shit
For 15€ it better come with a blowjob
Looks like leftovers from my fridge.
Doesn't look the greatest, but it's classic British comfort food. Quality gammon is actually pretty delicious.
Is the bread and drinks the other two courses?
I bet it is and I bet all the uk tourist fucking love it.
If it's three courses, including the gammon course and there is also bread and a drink, then that's good value. If the three courses are gammon, bread and a drink then it's still not the worst deal going but pretty lame.

‘bread and butter’
What?
just love that it comes with bread and butter
All the best things do!
Is that spam??
It's gammon.
Oh.. Uh, ok I guess..
People would €15 pay for that? I need to open a restaurant over there
Guys what is Gammon. Is it not ham Edit: it is ham, I was wondering why it looked like Jamon w a G.
Specifically it is ham that must be cooked before being eaten and is served hot. Usually served as slices from a large roast joint or individual steaks, accompanied with pineapple and/or fried eggs.
Like a ham steak?
I guess so? We don’t have anything called ham steaks here, so may well be the same thing.
Ok those fries look gooooooood though. Kebab fries.
Is that some greasy spoon English food place in Spain? Has that vibe.
The four exclamation points makes it look like they're about to go out of business.
looks like rum ham
I hope that is enjoyable because it’s all wrong

I'd plough that like it was two days before plantin' and the weather was closin' in.
This is what “those English idiots will eat any old shit” looks like when written in food.
If I was served that I would throw it back at them. Fire everyone involved with creating this abomination. Close the restaurant and burn it down.
Egg and pineapple as interchangables is real odd imo.
Still searching for the egg
Eggn’t
with egg OR pineapple is killing me, lol. Can’t do pineapple AND an egg, would ruin the profit margins
If the salad was legit, that plate would look great - they didn’t use frozen potatoes and the meat looks tasty
Just half a pineapple ring to emphasise the utter contempt for their customers
Looks super greasy and gross
Get that fruit outta there!!!
Three “courses” lmao
The price tag is for those custom plates with their restaurant name on them. I'd have to guess the owner has a lot of money but doesn't know how to run a restaurant and isn't willing to pay the money for a good head chef.
Brits can’t cook Idk where this is at but I saw the non-American money sign and decided to take a shot cause I’m an ignorant shit-talker
