INTERESTING PLACES TO EAT PAELLA 3:

La Pepica :

It is also an interesting option to go to the beginning of the Paseo de Neptuno in Playa de las Arenas. Where there is a restaurants in for over 100 years, called The Pepica  and specializing in rice dishes and seafood. (usually fresh fish of the day) restaurants next door are not bad but these are one of the most highly recommended. Those which I don't recommend (by several bad experiences, are those that are beyond the middle of the paseo maritimo).
It's situated right on the beach, have a sunroom, the kitchen is open and you can see what they are  preparing and how is cooked. The decoration is typical Valencian tiles and various objects from the garden of Valencia. In general the waiters are friendly and usually speak English, but in days of hard work, of course not always friendly. This is a more expensive option, the meal costs from 25 euros per person (usually well paid, but if you have not booked and there are many people, you risk having lower quality), and although you can eat well, it is advisable book on food 11 am to reserve a meal, as in summer are always full, thanks to the good area and their fame. In the area, it is interesting to take a walk around Port America's Cup, for the viewpoint of the breakwatter that leads to the lighthouse.  From there you can see on a clear day the Gulf of Valencia's form, and then walk along the dock (to see the "precious" and "cheap" abandoned buildings), through which also passes the Valencia's Street Circuit Formula 1. and if you want to have a counterpoint, you can stroll through the streets of the old fishing district of El Cabañal and it's municipal market. To see how the city of Valencia's has allowed the low houses of fishermen spoil with it's bad policy of building large projects only empty and very modernist, without caring for the historical heritage.

You can also call me to make any route for this and other areas and we try to convince my mother, who is the best cook paella in the world to prepare us a paella.
 NOTE: On the parks and sites I mentioned, I will publish specific post.
