- Following up an advertisement, a friend and I had Sunday brunch at
- Arco de Cuchilleros in Lakeview. The place seems to be a tapas bar
- during the week, and sets up a buffet for Sunday. The proprietor gave us
- a tour of the table: one pass through for cold tapas, another pass through
- for hot tapas, then they'd bring us paella from the kitchen.
-
- We took 3 passes through the tapas table, not 2, and would have gone
- back for more if we'd thought we could walk with that much food in us.
- Cold tapas included delicious marinated vegetables (zucchini, tomatoes,
- onion, pimientos, peppers...), potato salad, tuna sliced thin and
- marinated, a meat pate, chickpea salad, marinated seafood and vegetables.
- The hot tapas were good, but didn't leave as strong an impression on me.
-
- All this plus garlic soup (very mild to my taste) for $11.95 + tax and tip.
- We enjoyed ourselves, but were a little disturbed that we were the only
- customers at 1:30 on Sunday afternoon. Give it a try!
