at first smell, the truffle didn't stand out like the way truffled fries were, which usually send the strong truffle smell across the place. but at first bite, the truffle oil was evenly infused into the leek & mushroom! everything blends in well with the poached eggs and toast. the leek was cut finely so even a non-leek lover like me enjoyed the combination with the rest.
since it is a Spanish theme, they incorporated romesco sauce and chorizo. the nut and red pepper-based sauce helped to balance the overall taste, but the chorizo overpowered the rest. kinda salty and as what I shared with them, both chorizo and truffled leek + mushroom were fighting for my taste bud's attention.
nevertheless, they were really patient in hearing our feedback and explained the idea behind the dish. R&D is always exciting, so I look forward to seeing refinements and new dishes. thanks for having us!
