Sorry to break it to you, Jose (Andres). I now have a new favorite tapas place in town...Estadio! I've tried to get reservations many times before, but this time I planned ahead for my parents' visit earlier in July. It was well worth the wait and I have a feeling I'll just make reservations in advance a few times a year just to revisit this place.
We ordered a variety of tapas, but some of the highlights included this halibut dish, with a chili sauce, overtop of chick peas, dried cherries and some type of green. Great flavors, just melted in your mouth. I also really enjoyed their roasted corn with spices, herbs and manchego cheese. I tried to re-create this at home earlier this week, but while the result was good, it wasn't nearly as good as thing. Highly recommend ordering this if you ever find yourself so lucky to get in the door. Since it was my mom's birthday, we ordered a dessert to share. This manchego cheesecake, with pistachio crusted quince base was the bomb. Seriously.
Speaking of the bomb...I'm going to the gastronomic bomb called Montreal for a few days, followed by a few days in Toronto. I'll be sure to report back with a ridiculous number of food photos and insights to what I'm sure is going to be a great trip!
