The favorite tapa of both Katherine and Sarah was the huevos fritos con farinato (far right in the picture below). I have heard that one should not ask or research what exactly is in farinato, much like one should not ask what is in American hot dogs. But, regardless of what may be nauseating ingredients, both taste delicious. Our group of six annihilated two orders after having already eaten at two other bars. Carla's choice of tapa, morcilla or blood sausage, is also pictured. It is the bottom dish on the top plate. Carla was generous enough to share her helping, and everyone agreed that it was quite tasty, despite the ominous name.


My favorite tapa is the dish on the center in the photo below, champinones or mushrooms. My home town is what some people call the mushroom capital of the world, so I have been craving mushrooms for this whole trip. And I finally got to have them, and they were delicious, cooked with a bit of bacon and onions.
Aaron - great post! Farinato and morcilla were rightfully a big hit that night! It's tough to find a better tasting tapa than those two. Yeah, the ingredients are kinda gross when you think about it but we eat the same stuff (or worse) tailgaiting.
