    Adega Santiago - Homemade Fettuccine

    Adega Santiago is a rooftop restaurant located inside of a mall. The view was beautiful but the…read morefood was just okay. I ordered a glass of wine and the homemade fettuccine. I think that I would have been more impressed with another menu item because those that I dined with really enjoyed their meals.

    This rooftop restaurant is a romantic oasis on top of a luxurious high end mall. We had a choice of…read moreinside or outdoor seating. It was a little windy so we sat inside. The lighting makes everyone beautiful. The tables are not too close. The decor is warm and inviting. They had a menu in English. When we sat down, they brought three small bowls - one of almonds, one of olives, and an empty bowl for the olive pits. Nice touch! I was told the thing to get here is the Codfish and several dishes are prepared like in Portugal. Four cod main dishes looked good but I had had a late lunch was planning to eat lighter, two appetizers versus an appetizer and a main dish. It would have been hard to decide. For our appetizer, we spilt the grilled sardines which were four to an order and delicious. They were grilled whole with the heads on. They instantly transported me back to Portugal. They we're fresh and served whole with the heads on. So good!!! For my main I got another appetizer - the octopus My friend got the cod with olive oil and pepper. The octopus was like butter. OMG. I waould order this again and again. This was the best dish of the trip. And, by the way, that appetizer was enough for a dinner!! The cod was also delicious. It was flaky in olive oil with garlic and rosemary. They portion was enough for a dinner. Service was impeccable. We ate very leisurely while we talked and were left alone yet taken care of in terms of liquids (wine and water). OMG - they have dental floss in the bathroom. I was in heaven for that detail!!! We ordered an Aperol spritz to take outside and enjoy the view which extends past the restaurant. This restaurant is a must do!

    Maripili - Prato de linguiça na vodka, acompanha pão, não me lembro o nome do prato

    An authentic Spanish tapas bar on the corner of a street in Brooklin, Maripili is a small venue…read morethat fills up quickly; it's not open on Sunday nights. The food here tastes like something you might find in Madrid. The ambiance is interesting; they're apparently trying to create a household environment in each corner of this small saloon that holds fifteen tables. The service here is wonderful!

    I have mixed feelings about Maripili, this place is tiny, like other people have mentioned, tables…read moreare tiny as well, so don't rush up and order everything at once because it will just not fit on your table. Price is reasonable but there were many technical errors when we came in to dine. What we'd ordered: Jamón Iberico - 18 months cure Decent quality jamón but slicing was off, instead of delicate shavings, we got some jamón chunks, some a bit chewy. Sobrasada - spicy red bell peppers patê Good but wouldn't order it again. Duelos y Quebrantos - jamón, bacon, chorizo, eggs Very good, this is what my dream of a sloppy breakfast is. Filled with my favourite parts of pork, scrambled eggs, but not overly greasy. Gambas al Ajillo - sautéed shrimp with garlic and spices TERRIBLE! Shrimp were tiny and not devained, so it was a bit sandy and there were no season to it. Just awful. Jamón com Melon - jamón with melon Very good! Took me to memory lane during Christmas times, spending with family, relatives, having good laughs, people having a great time. Melon was sweet and the counter balance of the jamón saltiness just enhances overall taste and experience of eating melon. Esgarret - red bell peppers, salted cod, EVOO, garlic TERRIBLE#2! Red bell peppers were tender and full of flavour, on the other hand, it was filled with a bunch of raw garlic chunks that had the same color as the cod! Not only they were pungent, it stole and killed my taste buds! Some other cons, the parking situation sucks and service is slow as molasses! But overall, I would come back to try other tapas, drink some wine as they have wine from all over Europe and ZA. I just have to remember to ask them not to use too much garlic, since it's raw it means that is added when served.
