I went to Carmen's for a ladies night dinner and it was absolutely brilliant.
The decor, really brings you into the feel of a Spanish restaurant. The ever flowing sangria is delicious and the food was great.
Here's a breakdown of what we had:
Patatas Bravas - as good as they get but how hard is it to make Roasted potatoes, brava sauce and aioli taste amazing?!
Alcachofas Fritas- Fried Artichokes, Maldon Salt and Aioli - I swear, I have almost called a dozen times to just grab this for take out. I dream of this dish.
Ensalada de Col Rizada con Queso Salado - I am not a fan of eggs but this Kale, Ricotta salad with pine nuts and crispy poached pee wee eggs was pretty tasty
Morcilla y Garbanzos - Blood Sausage dish... I've never had it before and I'm not sure why I was so wary of it. It was fantastic.
Paella Antoni Gaudi - who doesn't love a veggie medley with their Paella.
There's nothing better than going to a great restaurant where you can forget about where you are and focus on the great food and great conversation. It's funny how rare that can be.
