Tapas. I saw no name on the building, no number on the wall. Just an open door with the inviting sounds of a happy crowd beckoning entry. They’ve taken a townhouse and created a restaurant, a tribute to the gods of tapas.
The tastes are multicultural, yet united in their wowness. Each experience – the grilled calamari, short rib empanadas, grilled octopus, beef sliders, flatbread and spaghetti pepperoncini was as flavorful as the one that came before. But wait, because there’s more.
The carrot cake with cream cheese mousse, candied pecans, pineapple sorbet and the napoleon – a confection of chocolate cream, peanut butter ganache and malted milk chocolate ice cream, sealed the deal on a meal without flaw.
They don’t need a name outside to create an impression. One bite will do that. And by the end of the night, there is zero chance you will ever forget.
The first bite will do that. And by the end of the night, there is zero chance you will ever forget. From bite one, there is zero chance you will ever forget.
