Since my last visit, the Chef has changed so I was glad to see some different dishes on the menu.

+++++++++++++
Smoked salmon and blue crab salad:
 0 讚好

The salad was a bit different because I found it tasting quite savoury because the crab meat had a briny taste.
+++++++++++++
Olives with white anchovies:
 1 讚好

I love white anchovies and they were soaked in vinegar which made them really appetizing.
+++++++++++++
Spanish cold cut platter:
 0 讚好

(Serrano ham, chorizo, olive and Manchego cheese)
My favourites had to be the cheese and olives.
+++++++++++++
Braised octopus and pearl onion with red wine sauce:
 0 讚好

The octopus had sweet taste which was drenched in this lovely wine sauce.
+++++++++++++
Chorizo croquette:

The croquettes were creamy with potato mash in the middle.
+++++++++++++
Fried padron peppers with garlic and sea salt:

These are a classic.
Delicious peppers sprinkled with sea salt that brings out the flavour.
+++++++++++++
Chili garlic prawns:

The prawns were springy topped with aromatic crispy garlic.
+++++++++++++
Spanish octopus in garlic olive oil:
 0 讚好

The octopus was springy with lovely olive oil and garlic flavouring.
+++++++++++++
Pan fried crab cake with garlic mayo:

The fried crab was a bit different, there was quite a lot of potato in it just like the Chorizo croquette above.
+++++++++++++
Pideua with seafood:

As a carbs lover, the rice was tasty because it has absorbed all the seafood flavours with a hint of tomato.
I loved the pideua which is super mini sized macaroni and you can see how tiny they are right next to the fettucine.


+++++++++++++
Fettucine with braised veal cheek in red wine sauce:

The star was the veal cheek which was so gelatinous and soft!
+++++++++++++
Duck confit:

The duck confit had a crisp duck skin and it was not too salty.
+++++++++++++
Jar banoffee pie:

The banoffee was loaded with banana infused cream which tasted natrual.
+++++++++++++
Creme brulee:

The creme brulee was thick and creamy.
+++++++++++++
