nacha restaurant - II

This was the place by the way; it's just a scan of their business card.

And I have a pic of one of the dishes:
Carpacchio of Pigs Feet

But my photographic ability really sucks with the PDA's camera. I think I need a little more light and to be slightly further away. I have more pics but they are similarly "quality impaired".

Well, photgraphically, I tried.

This came with a sort of sesame crusted filo tube in the center, filled with some greens. The toasted sesame seeds go great with the meat and its marinade.

The pic realy fails to communicate how 1) pretty and 2) tasty this was.

Today's lunch was lovely. The place: "nacha restaurante" in El Olivar (province of Guadalajara); about 100 km outside of Madrid (Spain). A little village of just a few hundred - with a top-class resto. In English that would be "nacha restaurant"; (yes, all in lower case). So you see, translations are not always that tough to figure out.

Pre meal:
Wine: Enate Cab/Merlot 2003
Some olives to snack on (it is, after all in El Olivar).
A little shotglass of Gazpacho de Sandia (watermelon)

Starters:
Ensalada de Reo (trout, salmonish)
Carpachio de Manitas (pigs feet)

Mains:
Arroz de Pescado (I love a good rice dish - especially for Sunday lunch)
Mejillas de cerdo (pork cheeks)

Dessert:
Mousse de fruta
Quesos

I'll post some pictures of the actual dishes later. Meanwhile make do with this nice pic of the restaurant interior (and the wine). Note the newspapers on the table - it was, after all, Sunday lunch; a time to sit back, relax, and recover from the week just past - - and prepare for the week to come.
