Jaleo recs for 1?

[Betsyp]

My LTT ADR fell through as the rest of my party is sick, and it’s too much food for 1 ….so I’m very happy to go to Jaleo, which I wanted to anyway.

Since I’m just one, I won’t be ordering a ton of dishes, but several for sure, I know I want shrimp in garlic sauce and pan con tomato….outside of that, I’m open (but no squid)

The desserts sound delicious - is any one especially good? Thanks!

The iberico ham is amazing and the stuffed peppers. Maybe sit at the bar and order dishes one at a time.

You could also try the Chefs tasting menu. We did that on our trip last year and felt that it really exposed us to the whole menu (included samples of the deserts as well). They also were quite accommodating of allergies and preferences- I dislike seafood and they made sure to bring me options that replaced the fish. It was pricey ($95 per person if memory serves correct), but totally worth it - the sangria was a hit at the table as well if you want a suggested pairing.

Ordinarily I might, but I’ve spent a lot of money on some other events, so I don’t think I can this time. Thank you, though !

I’ll post tonight after dinner about my experience !

Ooh right, I remember reading about them - I don’t totally love goat cheese, but I love piquillo peppers.

Bar is a good idea. The ADR is for 8, but I’d rather eat a bit earlier.

Thank you!

The chicken croquetas are to die for!

I had them, they were delish! Very rich...but yummy. The pan con tomate was fabulous, the bread was so light and flaky. I liked, didn’t love, the peppers, which they brought on with my chicken croquetas. I had to ask them to return the shrimp when they brought that out too - way too much at one time to eat. They never did get the shrimp quite right after that, temperature wise,
