Lunch at Jaleo

On the same day that we visited the Crime and Punishment Museum, Carlos and I had lunch at a Spanish tapas restaurant called Jaleo. After looking at crime, we walked across the street and had a delicious lunch (with a gift card courtesy of my friend Christina -- thanks Christina!). We ate here once before during restaurant week and the food is awesome (if a tad pricey).

During this lunch we shared...

Bread with oil:

Gazpacho estilo Algeciras (a very delicious gazpacho that I found the recipe for online and have since duplicated at home!):

Arroz cremoso de setas (wild mushroom rice with some nice cheese on top):

Sandia con tomates, CaƱa de cabra y pistachos (watermelon with tomatoes, goat cheese, and pistachios -- it sounds weird but was very nice and refreshing):

Gambas al ajillo (shrimps sauteed with garlic and peppers -- it isn't too spicy and has a tasty garlic flavor):

There you have it -- a delicious lunch as part of a fun day! We will definitely go back, but it is a little expensive so maybe for special occasions~

Yay! I'm glad the certificate came to good use, always nice to have a "discount" on lunch. ;-)
