Another dining experience
I got back from a business trip to London late on Friday night, and we decided to make the most of Saturday night by heading for Comerc24 tapas restaurant which is less than ten minutes walk from the flat. We could only get a table reservaton for 11:15 pm (I kid you not), but decided to take it in any case. When we arrived we were immediately welcomed by the staff and presented with a couple of glasses of cava. Then we were escorted to a chaise longue and read the menus to wait for our table to become ready. We decided to plump for the set menu degustación called the menu festivál. We had an excellen meal washed down with a really tasty bottle of Viña Guitián sobre lÃas 2005 - the wine is excellent; comes from Valdeorras in Ourense in Galicia. We had umpteen little tapas courses the most memorable being the onion soup with quail’s egg, and some sort of chocolate dessert with salt and olive oil. Isabel thought the olive oil that they served (which turned out to be Arbequina oil from Tarragona) was fantastic. We rolled home about 2am (which turned out to be 3am when the clocks changed to Summer Time) - not quite the last to leave the restaurant. I’d really recommend this place for the overall dining experience - excellent service and atmosphere - and it’s definitely worth getting a table in the resturant rather than in the bar. However, it was a little bit on the pricey side for the food that was served.
On another note, I just realised where another less formal tapas bar that we really like - Paco Meralgo in C/ Muntaner (corner with Córsega) get’s its name from. Pa’ comer algo means “for something to eat” in Spanish.
