Off the grill
Grilled cuttlefish and squid
Grilled cuttlefish is one of the fish dishes people order most. It comes with parsley and the side of the day, such as fried sweet potato and salad, and you eat it with a fork and no fuss. Grilled squid goes the same way: little decoration and traditional cooking, in a neighbourhood restaurant with generous portions and fair prices, where Yolanda and her mother do the cooking. If you can't choose between them, order both for the middle of the table.

To share
Mussels, anchovies and boquerones
Steamed mussels are the seafood tapa to start the table with, before the fried dishes. Anchovies and boquerones are served as three fillets, to go with bread and a heartier dish. Among the fried dishes, as well as calamares a la romana and a la andaluza, there are fried baby squid. If you fancy salt cod, the patatas de Olot are filled with cod, meat or goat's cheese and onion, and come in pairs. If there are several of you, order a couple of dishes for the middle and have another round of your favourite.
