My wife & I shared the artichoke confit plus she had the guacamole salad while I had the pasta puttanesca con gambas since I was curious what the Spanish take on this classic dish would be. We both liked the artichoke dish which had tasty crispy ham bits. Wife said she likes the guac salad. Pasta puttanesca was too sweet, I felt but not disastrously so.

The tortos (small corn cakes) sampler were my favorite! The corn cakes (think small tortillas but thicker) were topped with morcilla, chorizo and guacamole, they were the perfect handheld food to go along with sidra. The clam fabada was a hearty dish but definitely a bit lighter than the traditional version.

For dinner, we had a paella-like dish with rice, lobster and clams that was out of this world. We also had cod, which was succulent and served over a bed of mashed potatoes with parsley. Scrumptious. Ambiance was relaxed but professional. I don't drink wine, but I could see they were aerating the wine by pouring from high above and not over serving the wine. Important for some, I suppose. Some of the more exciting dishes are a little pricey, but for me it was well worth it in terms of food and service quality. They also had some lower price alternatives that were probably quite good as well.

I arrived in Gijon and I was starving....but as I walked out of the bus station I saw this Chinese…read morerestaurant and I said....SOLD. I went in and they gave me the menu. Very large menu with many choices, but what caught my eye was their daily special menu for one. For 10.95 euros, I could pick a soup, then a rice or noodle, then a protein, then a drink, then a dessert. I got a chicken and mushroom soup, a three delicacies fried rice, the pork ribs, a beer and a flan. I asked for no salt and sure enough...the food came with no salt. I did have to ask for some spicy sauce to make the food taste a bit better....I should had said Low Salt. Overall a good decent Spanish-Chinese joint in Gijon.
