Organic Catalin Cuisine at it's Best - La Llavor dels Orígens - Barcelona, Spain

Authentic Catalan Cuisine! Amazing and amazing, I think we almost ate the place down. There was no room left for dessert cause everything else was good and all I remember was plates coming and empty plates piling up. Best place I've eaten in Barcelona and it didn't even break my bank..you know what that means, more €€€ for GELATO! ;D. Did I ention its all organic too?

"Coca" with Duck and Figs - 5,40€

This dish was my favourite! Super soft pulled duck, with the sweetness of the caramelised figs and onions. Drools!

Meatballs with Mushrooms - 7,97€

Duck with Pears - 7,97€

The duck was a little dry but at least the flavour was nice.

Pear and Walnut Salad

I am not really into fruits in my salad, tis salad changed my mind. This is now one of my favourite summer salads.

Baked Rabbit with Rosemary - 7,97€

Rabbit is such a lean meat I find it hard to enjoy, they made up for it here with the flavours. 

Octopus with Onion - 8,45€

Wild Boar Stew - 9,20€

One of the best wild boar dishes I have had, so hearty but not heavy.

Lamb with Rosemary, Lemon, Honey and Chives - 9,40€

Can't go wrong with lamb.

Stuffed Squid - 8,60€

This beautifully stuffed squid was so moist. Being able to dip it into the catalan wine sauce it was served with definitely enhanced he flavours.

Buuuuurp! Very satisfied..

Make sure you eat here if your in town, you won't be disappointed

Dinner at Morena - Surry Hills, Australia

Last night we had dinner at this lovely Latin American Restaurant in Surry Hills. Peruvian flavours with a twist!

A cocktail to start off my dinner

Traditional Peruvian Bread with Chilli Salt.

I could eat 10 of this little things.

Arroz con Pato - $30

Roasted duck breast with northern Peruvian style rice cooked in dark beer, coriander & kiss peppers. This duck was cooked to perfection and I loved the peruvian flavours, a must if you dine here.

Adobo de Cordero - $40

8 hr braised lamb shoulder on the bone in a Peruvian adobo style with baby carrots, eschallots & silver beet. All I can say is melt in your mouth LAMB!

Tres Leches - $15

Traditional Latin American sponge cake soaked in three kinds of milk, served with roasted pineapple ice cream. I'm not usually a fan of cake for dessert as they can sometimes be too heavy but this was heaven on a plate, I would have licked the plate clean if no one was looking.

Tres Leches Chocolate Version - $15

Served with Cardamon and Ginger Ice Cream, Orange Segments, Hazelnuts, Black Cherries and Orange Sorbet

Hope y'all get a chance to check it out [here] or [MAP]
