Savouring Spanish Specials

I was already feeling full when the Skinny Apple Tart appeared. Its aroma was heavenly - the result of being freshly baked to a golden-brown crisp along all its exposed delicate edges. Constructed with exquisitely thin puff pastry and equally fine slices of green apples that had been seasoned with plenty of sugar, I knew, no matter what, there would be space in my tummy to fit this tart. Especially when it came with a pool of peach coulis and a scoop of vanilla ice-cream, both made in-house. Definitely the dessert to have when you're here.

This Spanish take on bread with tomato ($10++) is my must-have whenever I am at any FOC.
The crispness of the light toasted bread is perked up by a drizzle of olive oil and tangy tomato that has a touch of garlic. Simple but oh-so-brilliant.

WHAT SAUC-E-RY IS THIS?!
There's magic in that olive oil I tell you. Having had tonnes of roasted garlic soaked in it for 2 days before being used to cook this "Gambas", it carried a light yet distinct flavour and a rounder, unusually creamy consistency, plus a smidgen of heat from some South American chilli spice.
Even after we had eaten all the prawns (which by the way, were super sweet and fresh as @olacocinadelmar gets their prawns delivered twice a day from a local supplier), we were dunking our complimentary crisp-crusted bread in that fragrant oil. And when those ran out, we actually asked for more.
Yes, it is pricey but this "Gambas" is prepared in a unique way which gives it a taste unlike the many others I've had. So, it's worth a try.
