Re-stocking

We're re-stocking our ice cream supplies, it's been flying off the shelves this past week!

At present, to go, we have:

Choc Chip
Strawberry - 1 only
Caramel
Rum & Raisin

We've had requests for teetotal Coffee flavour which we are working on over the weekend.

Talking of which, we will close over New Year, Saturday & Sunday, so we would like to wish you all a Safe & Happy New Year!

Twas the morning after Christmas ...

... & I awoke alone. It looks like Louise has pulled a tendon in her knee, that'll teach her to try out-dancing a Dominican!

Christmas Dinner was a huge success with all those who were there. Many thanks to all of you for helping us celebrate together.

The turkey sandwiches sold out before 7pm yesterday, many thanks to Jose & Vasthi for letting us pitch our stall at Sam's Bar. We hope to be allowed back in again :-/

We've decided, given the number of events planned, that we will close MarLou's for the night on New Years Eve & on New Years Day too.

So, if we don't see you beforehand we'd like to wish you all a Happy, Peaceful & Prosperous New Year.

Now all I have to do is dress the tables & raise a smile for you all .....

Merry Christmas!

Last chance to book Christmas Dinner

We still have some space left for Christmas Dinner.

Just to re-cap, Louise is cooking turkey with all the trimmings with Christmas Pudding & brandy butter on Saturday 24th at 2pm. The cost for Gold Club Members is RD395, RD495 for non-members.

Please let us know by closing at 8pm on Wednesday if you wish to attend.

CHRISTMAS DAY
Although MarLou's will be shut we shall have turkey, stuffing & cranberry sandwiches available at RD100. Jose from Sam's Bar at L'Oase has kindly let us sell them there when he opens from 4pm. We will have them with us all afternoon, so if you can't wait until then "stop us & buy one".

We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

Mark & Louise

And the winner is ...

Mal & Josie. They won a two course dinner for two at MarLou's.

Our spot draw for Gold Club Members in fact had to be drawn three times.

The first name out of the hat unfortunately is leaving today so couldn't claim the prize.

The second draw was for a Member who wasn't there - you have to be in to win!

Then we finally found our winners. It is rather apt that our karaoke stalwarts should win on Christmas Karaoke night.

I feel a prize draw coming on ...

Christmas Karaoke one Gold Club Member will win a Prize worth RD500 or more if they are there!

Be there or miss out!

Saturday 17 th December at 10pm!

Getting busier ...



Costambar is slowly awakening after the annual slumber, there are more people on the beach - when it's not raining lol - & there's a sense that the mood among the business owners is lightening.


For our own part at MarLou's, we're getting ready for the Christmas Karaoke on Saturday night, in fact my next job is to find some spanish christmas songs.

Louise is getting together all the ingredients for our Christmas Dinner, whilst at the same time coping fantastically with the increasing load being put on her shoulders in the kitchen.

If you can't make the Christmas Dinner we will have turkey, stuffing & cranberry sandwiches available on Christmas Day on the beach. They will cost only RD100 & we will probably be down there from about 1pm.

We've re-stocked on Rum & Raisin ice cream to go, so if you want some give us a call or pop in anytime.

Enjoy your week
Mark & Louise

For smaller appetites

A lot of customers have commented that our portions are very large, & hence fantastic value for money, but sometimes people aren't that hungry. For this reason we are now serving soup, either as a starter-size portion for RD100 or as a light-main course at RD150.

This week we have pumpkin soup.

Friday, December 9, 2011

We might be closed Christmas Day but ...

... Louise has agreed to make some turkey, stuffing & cranberry sandwiches for the beach.

ONLY RD100!

As always, to avoid disappointment it's best if you let us know how many you want beforehand.
