More Food blog - Spanish Tapas - Anada

Dinner at Anada Bar & Restaurant, Gertrude St Fitzroy

At the instigation of Jon, we went out for dinner instead of cooking at home. As Sarah is away at Ballarat for her paediatrics nursing placement, it only left the 3 of us. We will bring her there for a second round when she is back in Melbourne in a few weeks time.

The place is usually fully booked at weekends and even weekdays. It was a pleasant surprise to get a booking for 3 tonight.
We ordered some Tapas (small entrees in little terracotta dish)and 3 mains; a Paella , Spanish mackeral and char-griiled King prawn, 2 glasses of sherry and 2 desserts

As we did not bring any camera, we searched the net for pictures from other food blogs and the following are some identical pictures of what we had.
Pictures taken from blogs such as …
