Definitely a must-stop if you want some great libations coupled with tasty bites.

Amid the cluster of barbers, malls, and bars lies Playa de Papagayo, one of more complete Spanish /…read moreTapas establishments not just in TST, but perhaps Hong Kong wide. Where as the other stellar spots offer a more intimate experience and tighter spaces, PDP is wide open with their layout. So wide as a matter of fact, that they're one of the few places that can truly be outdoor and indoor at the same time. Plenty of folks come here to booze, chill, and people watch, all of which could be considered pastimes of mine. Start it off with their specialty sangrias (hello rosé sangria), which aren't limited to red and white, but also beer as well. The latter is a bit of a surprise, and the taste is an extra kick (ginger beer?) that makes less beer-y but more cocktail'y. The rest of the drinks are mainly beers, frozen drinks, martinis, and cocktails. There are mocktails available for the non-alcoholic folks and a decent wine selection for people who aren't feeling the sangria. Pro-Tip: Happy Hour goes from 12pm-9pm. That's nine hours of easy drinking bliss. Food wise, I would venture their menu is more international than it is basque. Spanish tapas are certainly available here but they have pastas, pizzas, and sandiwches that are a solid complement to the drinks. Anything with their imported Iberico Ham is a safe be and the paella is extremely filling. The weekends can get pretty crowded and on some days they rock football / soccer matches. Bank on the friendly service (which is never a guarantee in HK) and do yourself a favor and indulge in their weekday happy hour and/or discounted brunch (30% off!).

They serve a mean carpaccio with flakes of Parmesan and an olive oil glaze. Their paella was great too, it was al dente and tasted like the sea (in a good way), but what really stole the show was their suckling pig. Underneath the light, crispy skin was the tender and succulent pork leg, well seasoned, and smooth, with enough to share between two. Also worthy of mention are their pecan pies, which while conservatively portioned are surprisingly rich for Hong Kong standards, and pleasantly nutty. I should also add that they have a coffee here that's good enough to have black.

As suggested by the name, you'll be welcomed by a rustic interior complete with brick walls, wooden cabinets, and ceramic jugs lined along the walls. A nice and chill environment to relax after some hectic shopping. The beef carpaccio and arugula salad was exceptional! Our waiter informed us it's made from angus beef tenderloin, hence no annoying tendons or chewy bits, and we get juicy meaty bits of goodness every bite. The roasted half chicken was also above average. The roast was kept moist on the inside and crispy on the out, even for the breast which is easy to overcook, it was handled decently. Would I recommend it? Definitely!

Staff wanted to seat us in the open air part, close to the very front of the restaurant. Since it was hot, we asked for, and were accommodated at a table in the middle of the restaurant, under the needed air conditioning!! We started off with two tapas; the Padron Peppers, $87, and the White Anchovies, $74. While the pepper dish was ample in size, it was incredibly boring in taste. However, the large sardines were expertly seasoned and enjoyable. For our main, we shared a non-meat version of the Seafood Paella, $338. This was delicioso y mui excellante! For dessert, we shared a Date Pudding, $70. This too was excellent. See photos. All in all a very comfortable place to dine. Service was adequate, as the staff had an attitude, yet food was impressive, thus the rating of 4 stars.

They also have a good wine list that's affordable by the glass. We were a bit peckish one Sunday afternoon so we stopped by and ordered their tasting platter, which had 30 g each of serrano, lomo, chorizo, and salchichon iberico. It was served with some hearty bread slices and gherkins. I wish they could add some cheeses, but after all they are named "Iberico" so I guess I'll let it slide, haha. As it's along the escalators, it's a nice spot to chill over drinks and small plates while you people watch. If you're lucky, you might even witness some tourists who trip and fall at the end of the escalator because they were clearly not paying attention while taking selfies! (Yes, I've seen this happen before and it is schadenfreude at it's finest!)
