Casa Mono - WOW
It was meant to be. Susanna and I decided we’ll go early at 6 pm without reservation (gutzy!) We actually got seats on the bar facing the kitchen!! And it was a night to remember!!!
The tapas was just amazingly tasty. Nothing tasted as how they look - the dishes were fully of yummy surprises and are just amazing!!! It is the most pricey tapas bar I’ve been; but I’ll go back again in a heart beat (hint, hint, who’s coming with me?)
We had Bacalao Croquetas with Orange Alioli (in pic, my favorite!!! Fried starch with orange mayo - how bad could this be?!); Pork Belly with Spicy Sandia (it’s magical to mix in watermelon to balance this spicy dish for the early summer days); Fideos with Chorizo and Clams (in pic; I don’t even usually like clams and can’t keep my hands away from this dish!!!); Sepia a la Plancha with Salsa Verde (yum yum yum … just perfect!)
Drooling as I’m blogging this magical night … call me please to go eat there …. please ….
