Hi can any one tell me if the Bardis sun apartments have gone independent from corfu escape and if so hnas any one got an email or website address for them.
I'm afraid I don't know Russell - but rest assured they'll be plenty of folk who will help you out re: this request - I'm certain of it :-)
How was your holiday?
Weren't you over there at the same time we were?
BeckyB :-)
Hi Becky yes we was there at the same time as you ,we had a very nice time just relaxing by the pool and on the beach just wished it might have been a bit hotter but other then that it was very nice
Did you have a nice time too ,did you go in to the Portfino one night thought i saw you in there sat near the main doors
Portofino is lovely. Good food, great service, value for money.
But you didn't try Brouklis, Rainbow, Captains, Tria Adelphia, Marina, Thalassa, Kostas-on-the-beach, Horizon, Mirage, Akti, Grazella, Amourada, Eftithia, Vavilas .... and that is in Arillas itself. All do full on night-out meals. We have eaten in all of them, and have had some incredibly good food. justphil's best was either fried perch in Thalassa or sofrito in Brouklis. justjen's was prawns in Thalassa and village chicken in Portofino. But above all was Grazella's garlic prawns. Must have had them ten times and always special. No wonder I put on 12 pounds (5 kg for our Greek friends...) during our month with you.
We don't just drink, we EAT.
love to all
Phil and Jen
I had a call from Babis two days ago to inform me that Their new Email is bardissun@aol.com .
You can always contact them direct for any information
The old email is not any more valid
Phil I am impressed by all the names of resturants you seem to rattle off....you say you have been in them all does this include "Whispers" as well.......LOL
'Fraid so keefy. Whispers and Calypso as well, neither of which is still in business. Sad aren't we...
Phil
I remember eating at Calypso, although I think it was called something different then....but don't recall ever eating at Whispers - thought this was just a bar and disco?
Sandy X Now don't shout at me but I think (I may be wrong often am) but Whispers may have been a Pizza parlour. I am open to a repremand if I am wrong.
You are both right - The pizza place was next door to Whispers, but I believe was owned by the same people. Calypso was our favourite in 2002/3. Old fashioned solid fuel range and good traditional Greek food. Yum!
Phil
yes phil....the pizza place was next door but owned by the same people....a very popular eating place with some of the young folk. Prior to that it was called the Acropolis.....the waiter who worked there (Mikralis) then went on to work at Eftihia's.
Phil & sandyX you both amaze me you know all of this (also I was a little bit right)
Shame it is not open now......but still there are plenty of other eateries there in Arillas
All this talk of food is making me hungry....."what's for tea darling" he shouted....LOL
Dimitris... is that Bardis Sun with Poppy and Spiros or with Dorita at the Hotel?
We called in the Pizza place the year before it closed... no meats or salami...no mushrooms or peppers..nothing.. all they had was Cheese & Tomato..they looked realy fed up and we wern`t suprised the following year when it shut.
...I am not sure but I think the pizza place in San Stefanos does a delivery service to Arillas !!
hi kes
You could watch Whispers decline and what you describe was part of that. I would love to see a new family oriented taverna open up on that corner with a place for the young families to go, where the kids would be happy while the mums and dads could relax. If I had the money I would start it myself.
Pizza? I would never need that delivery service. Even in four whole weeks I didn't get to eat everything or everywhere I wanted to. OK I did some twice because we adored the food. But next year we will complete the list - we haven't eaten at Horizon, Mirage or Efithia yet. Then there will be Mon Amour and Night Owl...
Just planning my Greek menu for tomorrow

Phil
I agree phil....I don't go to Greece to eat pizza....
I'll tell you what you two....if we are all there for Easter we must definitely go up to Night Owl....they are open all year round....may even invite negg and wegg if they're lucky!
Looking forward to it Sandy. Bring it ON
love Phil and Jen
Hey Sandy, try some of the octopus. It`s lovely.
Hey Russell,
I realised I hadn't replied to your question about possibly seeing me.
I don't think we did eat at the Portofino actually :-)
Perhaps it was someone who looked a little like me.
What did you do while you were there & where were your fave places to eat?
BeckyB x
Hi Becky
Sorry it has taken so long to reply to you but i have been working a couple of long shifts at work
We just chilled out at the side of the pool or down on the beach when we could.
Did A couple of walks over the hill to San stefano & Alfonis, nearly killed me.
Night time we had a couple of meals at the marina & portafina and the Thalassos& the rainbow all very nice.
We are looking to try to book next year at the bardis sun apts all been well, how about you
Phil you must go to the Night Owl been once at dinner time...just a snack but it was really good...they also have a cute cat...Oh! and ice cold beers
Thanks for the advice Keefy. It has always been on "our list" but believe it or not, there are still a few we haven't tried (not many though...) Have heard a lot good about it on here.
hope you and Helen are well.
Phil and Jen
Phil
Both Helen & I are doing great...could be better could be in Arillas with a load of forum mates, playing darts,drinking sitting in the sun drinking, going out for a meal drinking. Just walking about perhaps visiting a local taverna and having a drink.
Is there a theme to this post....Soon be Christmas
Now, Christmas at Bardis Sun. DingDong! That would appeal to a lot of us, including Jen and me. Walks along the beach. John the Ref's delicious looking turkey. Chats with the locals out of season. Silly pressies. A few glasses of whatever takes the fancy. Loads of forum members. Now there's an idea..... Let's charter a flight and invade!
"Oh No!" I can hear Dimitris saying. thought I'd got rid of that lot!
Sadly this post belongs in erja's thread "I would rather be in...." so I'll put it there too.
take care HelsBels and Keefy. And thanks for the summer...
love
Phil and Jen

We called in the Night owl for a quick beer 1 lunchtime lovely spot be deffo calling in again
Tony
We've zoomed past the Nightowl on the scooter & we've done it on foot a couple of times & still haven't stopped off there.
Really have to do something about that - it looks so nice & I've read many different reports on it - aah weel, just goes to show you're never short of places in & around Arillas :-)
Russell,
Sounds like you had a pretty good time then? :-)
I'm so pleased for you. Did you take many pictures? I suppose you heard about my camera disaster did you?
Our camera died & I only managed to get 4 shots - oh boy, I was pretty cross let me tell you!

Hi Russell!
I have just found one of Spiro and Popy's cards I picked up in May when I was there.
Tel no. and fax.0030 26630 51224.
Email. bardissun@aim.com
They are taking independant bookings last year and for 2009. Hope this helps.
Martin.
Hi all, Bobby (Bardis Sun Apts) has asked me to tell those of you that have his old
e-mail address that it is no longer working. Martin is correct with the one he has posted and this is the only address by which you can now contact Bobby, Poppy, Spiros & George. bardissun@aim.com. They have a small number of private rooms for bookings in 2009 and Nancy (Corfu Escape) is still selling rooms at the Bardis Sun Apts also. Thanks, Wendy.
