I would have ordered my mi favorito, Paella Valenciana, but decided to pass since I knew for sure that I won’t be able to finish everything in my plate (or sizzling plate for that matter). Anyway, here’s what I got:
Sumputuous Tapas in a Plate: Croquetas de Jamon
Okay, here’s the winning plate. I really, really love the ham croquettes!!! They’re just made to perfection. I would have ordered a bunch for to-go, but the kitchen was closed already. 
The Shrimp and Mushroom stuck in a bread wasn’t bad either. The mushroom is kinda spicy though, perhaps because of some spices (like garlic and red pepper?) beneath it. I have high tolerance when it comes to spicy food anyhow, so I did enjoy devouring the piece. 
A Sizzling Plate of Baked Mussels
On the other hand, I didn’t find the baked mussels that delightful, maybe because it was too garlicky and had less parmesan than what I expected. I love baked mussels swimming in cheese and booze (lol)! But I guess, it was just the way they cook it. I wouldn’t complain much.
Still looking forward to my next visit!

I ? Casa Armas. I remember after lunch meetings in Podium before, I’d always pass by Casa Armas for Wine & Tapas at 3PM! Hahaa.

Wow! I haven’t tried drinking a glass of wine, but I’ll try getting one as soon as I pass by the area again, which is next month!
