Abades - Review - Triana - Seville - The Infatuation

"You’re at this fancy tasting menu spot in Triana for the river views that are just as spectacular as the glammed-up Andalusian plates that look like they came from a science lab. There are several tasting menus (€60-€340), all of which are seafood and meat-centric and change daily, and no matter what you choose, you’ll leave feeling like royalty. The 100-percent acorn-fed Pura Raza jamón is cured for over three years and carved tableside. Traditional ensaladilla is transformed into shrimp tartar topped with a deep-fried sea anemone. And lightly fried eggs are topped with Almandraba tuna and truffles. After you’ve finished your glass of tinto from Sierra Norte de Sevilla, or any one of the wines off their 60-page menu, you’d be smart to order the coffee-infused mascarpone cream dessert spilling out of a mug." - Aileen Weintraub
