Advantages: A book of sumptuous recipes many of which are used in Rhodes' own restaurants. Disadvantages: Recipes are generally for more people than you find in the average family.
I?ve always had a soft spot for Gary Rhodes right from his first series for the BBC back in 1994. No, it wasn?t the spiky hair (which I hated) or the puppyish charm (which grated) it was the fact that it did seem that the man could actually cook and his love of the food shone through in everything that he prepared.
It didn?t even worry me that he?s thin when no chef has the right to be thin. He?s a cook; it?s what his life is about, whether he?s appearing on television, running his restaurants and brasseries or writing books. They are all part of a seamless whole. Go into the kitchens of his brasseries and you could well find that the chefs are working from photocopied pages from my latest find: his ?New British Classics?.
First published in 1999 ?New British Classics? is not just a cook book; it?s a work of scholarship too ...
Advantages: Family friendly, all inclusive, next to beach Disadvantages: Insects in rooms, no cash machine, not enough toilets
Last week I came back from a holiday in Greece. We went to Rhodes and stayed in the Rodos Village in Kiotari. The Rodos Village is a 5 star all-inclusive resort which is situated in the east west coast of the island.
We took a taxi from the airport to the hotel (this was a pre-paid transfer from our holiday provider) The taxi took around an hour to get to the hotel. Since our flight was overnight, we arrived at the airport at 4.45am, so it was great to hop into a taxi and get to the hotel quicker than the coach would have taken.
We got to the hotel at around 6am. There are not only steps up to the hotel, but also a ramp. It was quite steep but it meant that I could wheel my bag up instead of carrying up the steps (always good if you're tired!)
Check in was quick. No one was around at that time since it was so early, there was ...
Advantages: Always one close by, quick turn out, children are welcome and catered for. Disadvantages: Toilets can be quite disturbing, not all dishes taste as good they are described.

**** Parking and Getting a Table *****
As with most of the Harvester's I have visited, there is usually ample free parking at the rear of the establishment. However on Saturday evenings and Sunday lunch times these places are heaving with customers, so avoid the crowds, go early and if possible ring and reserve a table. The Stag and Hounds is no exception but fortunately ...

Manufacturer's product description
Still floating after 40 years of serving good food, this was one of Rhodes's first decent restaurants. It's a great place to watch the yachts bobbing alongside while you enjoy well-prepared, creative dishes such as sole valevska (filet of sole with shrimp, crab, and mushrooms gratinéed in a béchamel sauce). The saganaki shrimp -- prepared with feta cheese, local herbs, and tomato sauce -- is an exceptional dish. Count on the chef to offer "fushion" cuisine, which blends Polynesian, international, and Greek techniques and tastes. The restaurant is also open for breakfast and for coffee or a drink at the bar, if that's all you want.
