Description:
The dainty tapas-size dishes served here all look and taste pretty innovative till you learn that many of the recipes are based on time-tested traditional standbys. These include Galtas de porc con nueces y higos (pig trotters with walnuts and fresh figs) with honey ice cream, and calamar relleno de carne de cerdo picada en salsa almendrada de chocolate (squid stuffed with minced pork and served with an almond-flavored chocolate sauce). Also popular are savory rice served with fresh asparagus and black truffles, and ravioli stuffed with codfish and minced smoked ham. There is also a comprehensive and exemplary wine list.
