December 8, 2010. La Fondue
On this night, after a long bridge, we go to the L'Eixample district to district to Remei Pla find a classic Valencia. Ends be relocated and is now the new generation led by Daniela and July.
These streets known to all public and Cánovas Zone, home to many nightclubs, drawing our attention devoted to tapas bars and restaurants.
Today we enter a room beautiful, functional and well-dressed tables and a separation between them unbeatable.
We are located on a table and leave us two cards to go picking.
The truth is that the idea had already Karoleta from home. How can we not going to take a fondue? and meat "of course".
quietly look at the wine list, really short, with only three reds Valencia, a fact not preventing him from participating at this location in the promotion of the Regional Government to deliver a glass of wine glass for each guest consuming wine here. We
surprised this much, starting with the high quality crystal glasses, which are precariously inside a bag of ECI, they tell us is by order of the distributor that the gift should be given in all cases within this bags.
So as things we do not shake hands with the choice of wines from the earth to clean our taste on a Wednesday if you and another also if necessary, we are inclined by an unknown red Utiel-Requena: Constantia Winery's 2005 Madroñeros. Given the age in the bottle and the shortness of the barrel, as stated in the label are only four months in new oak leaves closed with some particles in suspension and not letting fully appreciate its flavor.
So ask things that jar, but as an alternative we offer a wine oxygenator, the Vinturi that leave us in the table so that we decanted into two new drinks, with ours we seem to be of tasting, the new, the wine will feel so good aeration, until the color changes.
satisfactory results, the wine is made from a blend of different grapes, where it is noted bobal tremendously, even so, is a powerful wine, aromatic, fleshy and pleasant taste. We see on the back that has won a woman came 2008, should be another vintage or another age, because usually the "wine women" are more fruity and soft wine (away from l @ s like wine lovers).
As incoming ask a cheese containing, semi-cured manchego, brie, camembert, Roncal and blue. We devoured them, from the moment it is a fact that the wine is going to look like another (you know the cheese kills the taste of wine and let it meek meek).
ordered a main course fondue Bourguignon (beef) for two, is a good cube tray Galician Veal (hip area) juicy, tender and good color, slice of fried potatoes, a tray of sauces (mayonnaise, pink, mustard and homemade cakes all of them) and a plate of variants.
begin the whole ritual fondue:
comes with a cork to prevent oil jump and advise us to go play with fried meat on a plate with a fork to prevent burns if we take you directly to the wedding , so we stopped for a breath carved pieces of meat submerged in the oil and since we like very little done and it is tender and tasty meat, we went to Spice it up with sauce (sauces are pretty cold for reasons conservation and to prevent meat supercooled not been bad a flick of micro before serving.)
We finished the tray without much trouble although the amount of meat is becoming hard to top it.
enjoyed ourselves with the game meat but especially of good food.
Reluctantly we come to dessert: ice cream, a very worthy and reminiscent of the magnificent dessert that we at the bowling alley, tangerine with black chocolate chips which lowers our suffering stomach.
Quesoy ends the dinner with his accustomed ristreto. For good finale invite us to a digestive: Karoleta calls for Four Roses, a cowherd and Quesoy seven test done, ask Calvados, which is the French taste (Room temperature).
Very good detail and very good summit dinner.
