"Valencia specializes in paella, the rustic dish rooted in the rice-growing regions along Spain’s Mediterranean coast. Made with short-grained rice and traditionally spiked with proteins like chicken and rabbit, Valencia also offers a Cajun paella that’s a kissing cousin to jambalaya. The menu brings local flavors to the Spanish table, like empanadas stuffed with crawfish and chorizo and a savory duck gumbo served over garlicky mashed plantains." - Beth D'Addono
