Dinner.

Here’s what we had.
Garlic Prawns- tender and infused with the rich, garlicky olive oil.
Slightly Grilled Multigrain Sourdough, which server recommended to soak up the prawn essence etc. 2 thick slices with Crispy crust served with olive oil.
Croquette- golden, crispy shell encasing a burning hot creamy béchamel filling and topped with Ibérico Ham.
Cured White Anchovies- tender and briny, with garlic vinaigrette adding a bright, zesty kick.
Padrón Peppers Slightly Seasoned with a touch of salt- simple, smoky, and slightly sweet.
Octopus from Galicia Served over creamy Smoked Potato. Unfortunately, octopus was too soft and lacked its signature chewiness.
Grilled Atlantic Ocean Langoustines- fresh and sweet, simply prepared to let the natural flavor of the langoustines shine.
Thin layer of Seafood Black Rice with tender Baby Squid, and black squid ink adding a deep, briny richness. The dollop of all-i-oli on top was creamy and garlicky. Lovely socarrat (ie toasted rice bottom with crispy crust)- wish there were more of it.
Warm rich and creamy salted Basque Cheesecake with a slightly caramelized top that added a subtle smokiness. Light and refreshing Mixed Berries Sorbet and crumbs on the side offering a tart contrast, taste-wise not exactly the best pairing tho.
In summary: mix of classic tapas and elevated seafood dishes combining traditional flavors with a focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients. Servers were attentive and knowledgeable. The ambiance struck the perfect balance between casual and refined, making it an excellent choice for a leisurely meal. Overall experience was one of warmth, authenticity, and flavors delivering a solid exploration of Spanish cuisine.
