| - Four of us met for a Sunday dinner at Cava and a truly delightful meal. We had a reasonably priced bottle of Rioja with several tapas selections: a couple of orders of pincho of avocado and avruga (essentially a bruschetta), two orders of "supergilda" (highly recommended), roasted beet salad with kale, jamon iberico (not as nice as patria's), eggplant with queso fresco, honey and tomatillo sauce (quite a memorable dish), roasted brussel sprouts with black garlic (exquisite), papas fritas (best fries ever with some amazing aioli) and of course the piece de resistance, the best paella we've ever had. To top it off, for dessert we had churros con chocolate and valrhona chocolate souffle with spanish coffee sauce. The meal, with wine, came to less than $90/person, which for the overall experience is a bargain in my books. We in Toronto are quite fortunate to have the trifecta of Bar Isabel, Patria and Cava for some truly incredible tapas restaurants to choose between.
