The deal: The famed tapas joint rolls out a set lunch menu with two- and three-course options (at $35 and $45 respectively), pretty decent considering the prices for dinner. There are four options per course so there are quite a few dishes to pick from. For starters, the crispy baby squid with chili coriander and black ink aioli has all the crunchy goodness you’d expect with just the right amount of heat. While the mains are quite fish-centric, the sea bass with chorizo red pepper paella and black olives has a bowl of hearty rice that you can’t stop eating. Dessert-wise, the basil sorbet with black pepper meringue stands out due to its savory nature but is altogether refreshing and tart when paired with berries and sweet tomatoes.
Why it’s worth it: Considering the prices for dinner (this would only get you two tapas-sized dishes), it’s a value-for-money lunch set that doesn’t skimp on quality, service or size. Plus, they take lunch reservations.
