The Best Things We Ate This Week

"Pan Con Tomate The pan con tomate is proof that some of the most delicious things in life are also the simplest. And while Aita’s version is a little less simple than the ones I’ve tried thanks to the addition of mussels, peppers, and little dollops of a fantastic aioli situation - it’s also probably the best I’ve ever had. Aita is a new vendor in MIA market, a Design District food hall, that identifies as a “somewhat Spanish snack bar.” This place is really worth a trip if you’re looking for lunch in the area, not only for the pan con tomate, but also for the shrimp skewers, the patatas bravas, and just about everything else on their great menu." - ryan pfeffer, carlos c olaechea
