  • The MacMaster is in Benidorm at The Duke of Wellington also know as Rays 3 for their famous Fish and Chips. In Benidorm there is Rays 1, Rays 2 and Rays 3, Rays 1 being the original location, Rays 2 being the original owners and Rays 3 who told me they actually own and bought the name. However Rays 3 is also a Pub called The Duke of Wellington and serves other dishes apart from Fish and Chips. The big question is how do they compare to Rays 1 and Rays 2 that ranked highly on The MacMaster Scale. If you are looking for the best places to eat and drink while on Holiday in Benidorm then let's find out if The Duke of Wellington (Rays 3) should be on your list of places to visit. Also keep an eye out for Lucy The Benidorm Enthusiast!

    I know how you feel about the "fast" food. Happened to me once at a Chinese. I walked in and placed my order and sat down and started reading the paper they had out. They brought me out my food after 3 mins and it made me wonder how they even managed it. It was like a £30 order for a family of 4. Put me right off.

    Great to see you and Lucy doing a video together, my two favourite YT channels. The fish & chips, yeah I've been there many years ago when it was just Ray's and it was just a chippy, good food in those days, also went a couple of years ago and they were pretty average, pub standard fish & chips, no surprise as it is a pub. Three or four minutes to be served is odd, can't get a fillet o fish in maccies that fast lol.
    Moving on I have a suggestion, how about a few reviews of a couple more steakhouses, there are a couple near where the Duke of Wellington is - Country Ribs, big place with a large menu, I've not been yet so I'd like your take on it, and completely different experience - La Brasa Steakhouse, a small local family run place, I have been to and the food is fabulous run by lovely elderly couple. Two ends of the restaurant scale could make an entertaining video or two.
    Looking forward to your next vid, whatever it is, BTW - see many EV's or charging stations over there?

I think your score of 5.4/10 was fair but as you say, it’s from a pub and not a fish and chip restaurant. Great vlog always mate and loving yours and Geoffs scooter videos. Thanks for sharing buddy👍

    Hi Lee
    How much fun were you having on that mobility scooter..!! 😂
    Yes I totally understand your concerns about that fish'n'Chip's review.
    Being a Haddock, not a cod sort of guy it didn't float my boat.
    3 minute between ordering the food
    and serving
    Would've rang a bell with me , just like the bell Of the microwave oven it came from.
    It didn't look good,the fish looked dark when you turn it over.
    The Chip's weren't the best.
    Lee, when you said that you wasn't going to finish it.
    This said it all.
    Oh...I loved the way, you added the diet coke with that junk food.
    I guess your keeping an eye on your waistline. 😂
    My advice is, join Geoff for a few scoops & onwards my friend to the next food review. 😂

  • @selwynowen6213

    I’m putting my review on here at 15mins mark. Just by looks alone I’d give it a 8/10 as it all looks great to me the fish looked as it was cooked to perfection, and the chips and the mushy peas all looked spot on, as you know by now Lee. I’d have to have a nice mug of tea and bread and butter to go with that. I did the other two Ray’s chippies in January, I thought that Ray 2 war the better of the them all.

    Lee, I knew that when you said "Okay" the first time, it was going to be similar to the Fisk & Chips you had the first time. Water on the plate to me indicates that maybe it was frozen first? Yes, a 5 or 6 would be about right.

    Really difficult to know what was going on there. Time between ordering and food arriving shows it could'nt have been cooked fresh. I'm damned if I know how it was done, although the chips did look as if they'd seen the frier for a brief second time!
    Was that liquid on the plate water? Whatever it was, it must have come from the fish!
    A big question mark about that meal! If I were feeling generous, I might have given it 5.5 but I'm not feeling generous purely and simply because the uncertainty about how it was cooked. For me, it rates no more than a 4.5

    MORE CLASSICS from the Mighty Lee: 0:53 - “Dropping Geoff Off” - that’s the best euphemism I’ve heard for ages: Scenario: GF - “where ya going”? Bloke - “Don’t pause the DVD luv - I’m just going to drop Geoff off..” EVEN MORE: 2:41 look at the road sign and then look at the bloke that has not emerged from the Happy-Bar since 1987… Quality Oblivion.. 3:18 - Red kerbside wheely 3:30 - Left - Green Minion + 3:55 - more of ‘em… everywhere..! 7:20 - parking yer bike on a pedestrian crossing… yeh.. rock on dude.... 9:29 - love the sign with the bloke and the threatening knife - "You WILL like one of our delicious speciality grills..." 10:01 - You’re being watched by another green minion… again. 10:04 - pathway male model… Director... "and... strike the pose….." 10:22 and .. “go… exit stage right..." Keep on Lee - we all love your videos!

    Sounds like Monty's curry houses in Ealing. Same name, same logo, same branding, all within about 2 miles of each other but totally independent. And nobody is quite sure who Monty is or was.
