Meanwhile, it’s a sad day for regulars at Manilva’s much-loved Roman Oasis restaurant as its founder and restaurateur Paul Hickling has decided to call it a day and retire after 36 years at the helm of one of the Costa del Sol’s most iconic eateries. Famous for its fabulous food, quirky décor and charming host, the renowned eatery attracted celebrities such as TV chef Keith Floyd as well as expats and locals looking to enjoy a very special night out. During an interview with local English language media, Paul said retirement had been on his mind for a while, adding he’d decided just to close the restaurant rather than sell it on as a going concern, as he can’t imagine anyone else running it!
