Eating My Way Through Seville Part 3: Vineria San Telmo
There are many reasons why Vineria San Telmo is ranked as #2 restaurant in Seville on Tripadvisor as of December 1st.
1. Service: I walked in during a rainy, cold night. The hostess told me that all tables inside were reserved so I braved the cold wind albeit with a patio heater outside. I later realized it was way too cold, and I didn't want to get sick. Hence, I asked the server to move me inside. He happily obliged as long as I leave at 9:30 pm- the time the table was reserved. I agreed.
The server who spoke flawless English, a rarity in Seville, laughed when I ordered five tapas for myself. I gave him a big grin knowing my big appetite. Just wait and see.
2. Price: I paid under 30 euros for 5 tapas, a glass of wine and hot chocolate. What a bargain!
2. Food: Everything I ordered was beyond amazing. I did end up ordering too much but wished I had an expandable tummy to eat more. You can't go wrong with anything on their menu.
Squid ink spaghetti with garlic and grilled scallops. After mixing it with the green sauce, which I believe is pesto, this dish came alive. I just hope that this was not serve as my first tapas because it instantly made me so full. |
Tower of tomatoes and cheese. My vegan friends would be so happy with this tapa dish. |
I would definitely come back at Vineria San Telmo and try the other tapas. Or better yet, can you please open a branch in San Francisco, pretty please?!?!
