Dreaming of Spain at Dali Restaurante y Bar de Tapas

Who could resist a meal such as this.    Irresistibly sinful indulgent!   Lechon, seafoods, paella, croquettes and so much more.   Ever wonder where I had this much all in one plating?

Acclaimed to be give the fine art of serving authentic Spanish cuisine!   
When you say risotto or pasta, that's Italian.   When you say Sushi or Donburi, I bet you know it's from Japan.  Risotto and Donburi  consists mainly of rice, there is however an unclouded difference on the way the two dishes were cooked.   Like Paella, a unique style was applied in preparing the three famous rice recipes.   However, this is not a blog about rice and how it can be prepared.   So when you say Paella,  it is definitely Spanish!   And when you say Dali Restaurante y Bar de Tapas, sounds Spanish, definitely Spanish.

The style of the restaurant is "modern-baroque", with a white, elegant fountain welcoming you, while an al fresco mood invites diners to bask in fresh air and soft sun's rays.  Inside is a massive dining floor, from the extravagant ceiling fixtures to the wooden dining furniture to the floors.   Both the interior and the exterior of the place shouts Spain.

Then came the buffet table.   I have heard that the restaurant is said to be famed for their Tapas, again another glorious dish from Spanish culture, as can be found in their name, The Tapas Bar.   Sad to say I was not able to try it, but we were able to sample some of the best dishes they offered in their menu.   The picture above shows their Croquettas, so good with their garlic mayo dip.   The classic Paella, humongous serving of shrimps, sea foods and chicken, pork and chorizo with a rich saffron infusion with long-grain rice.  Below left, is the Polo clon Perijil y Pimientos, chicken fillet dressed in cucumbers, red bell pepper sauce (a tangy   sweet combination from the vegetables).  And the breaded fish fillet where in a beautiful pesto sauce smothers it, I'm such a sucker for basil and pesto sauces.

Next on the roster are, Cochinillo, slices of roasted young pig, ever so soft to the bite and savoury.   All heart-attacking dishes paired up with with rice topped with black beans, typically Spanish.   And never to forget, my lovely Churros Con Chocolate.   Do not ever leave the place without even trying the pastry puff with its thick dark chocolate condiment.   The puff is not that sweet which compliments perfectly with the right chocolatey sweetness of the Spanish chocolate, the perfect dessert pair, should I say.   Those are just a few on their menus.   
So if you are missing your lola's cooking or are in tune for fine notes of the festive Spanish cuisine, you can definitely find it here at Dali Restaurante y Bar de Tapas.
