While busy with my Christmas shopping I stopped off for a solo Saturday lunch at an old university haunt
-
T get as far through the menu (which is a curious mixture of both Spanish and Greek dishes &ndash
-
The latter is delicious &ndash
-
The peppers are quite mild
-
Every so often you get one with a surprising heat
-
Service is fast and the menu is excellent value
-
I'm in love with their chorizo
-
I have been here a few times with my family and the food is really good
-
This atmosphere is friendly and inviting
-
The only issue I have is the staff are very tough with checking ID
-
Is a little frustrating when you are having a family meal and are 23
-
I popped in here for lunch with a colleague
-
The dishes come out when they are ready but these all came out in close proximity to each other
-
We started with the patatas bravas and the meatballs
-
The patatas bravas is light on the sauce here
-
The meatballs were in a set of three
-
Makes it a little less easy to share between two but were large enough that it was not a problem to cut a meatball in two and still have a decent bit of meat each
-
The nicest part was the tomato sauce
-
I have to say that this was probably the best dish of the four
-
The butter beans were soft and in a nice tomato sauce which included small pieces of other vegetables such as celery to give it added depth
-
This sauce was thinner and lighter than the one with the meatballs
-
Edinburgh's culinary scene is increasingly multi cultural
-
All sorts of restaurants offering various national cuisines seem to appear with increasing regularity and this is
-
Not only does it serve Spanish mini morsels but it complements these with a selection of Greek mezze
-
Now I understand there is a degree of commonality between food hailing from the east and west of the Mediterranean
-
The place was at best a third full
-
To be fair this was 6pm on a Wednesday night
-
The friendly and efficient staff ensured that pints of Estrella and a couple of menus were soon in our hands
-
Our waiter suggested we should order two to three dishes each and then see if we were still hungry
-
Three each it was then being cultural is a hungry business
-
New to me was in itself well put together
-
Roasted garlic loveliness that was the accompanying Romesco sauce made this something special
-
Equally good were the Buñ
-
Menus and cutlery were dumped in a pile on the table for us to sort out ourselves and we were informed
-
That three of the dishes and two bottles of wine were no longer available
-
The food which followed was utterly disappointing
-
Mixed vegetables arrived swimming in oil and were greasy and bland
-
The only positive was our first portion of chorizo it was spicy and succulent and such a pleasant surprise that we ordered a second portion of it
-
The second version was completely different undercooked and lacking the spice and flavour of the first
-
The restaurant was busy and other reviews make it clear that this restaurant can be good
-
Althought the first time I was not conviced by their mix of greek and spanish tapas
-
They have very good Spanish wines and service is good (staff is quite nice and friendly)
