El Asador Catalán - 37884 San Miguel de Allende

I am not a lover of Spanish food, however the place is delicious. I loved the chamorro, super soft, good flavor and a very large portion for myself. The rabbit that 4ambien prepares was more than delicious and the portion was well served for the price, surely two can eat that dish and they look good. The only thing missing a bit is that I ordered some Serrano ham pancakes and at no time did I find the taste of ham. The first oranges I ordered didn't taste like orange at all but the second one was already a little better.

I must warn that if you expect a Mexican experience this is not the place. I have seen low ratings for this restaurant with which I had a super nice experience and in most I notice that people expect a certain flavor or texture and this place is to have a flexible palate and be open to trying things other than our Mexican cuisine ? For To start with, the bread they use for the tapas is friendly with a touch of garlic and the sausages are of very good quality, some of the best Serrano hams I have ever tasted, if you are not used to eating sausages it may be too simple for you. The paella is not like we are used to rice in Mexico, it is a little crispier and has Saffron in it, which can be difficult to perceive if you are not used to it. The prepared drinks are very tasty, I ordered Clericot. They have a good variety of wines, I also had the pleasure of trying fideuá, which is a dark pasta due to octopus ink, with mussels and shrimp. If seafood is not your thing, I don't recommend it; And if you like seafood, it is a very different dish from that of our coasts, so you have to have an open mind to savor something new. The tuna medallion with asparagus and potatoes I highly recommend it, I swear you will not regret it, it is the richest tuna I have ever tasted, it was so well prepared that it was juicy with woody smoked notes and it almost tasted like flank steak. seasoned. The desserts are not to be missed, the pears in red wine have to be tried because they are tremendously juicy and it is a wined sweetness that does not harass. Also, if you are going in a group and you don't want to wait too long for a table, I recommend calling the restaurant and making a reservation for you and your companions. And if you are very desperate, you have to take into account that the dishes take a while to prepare, so we applied in ordering the food in such a way that when we were receiving a dish we ordered the next one at once for when we finished the first, the second would arrive almost immediately. And last but not least, the place is spacious, beautiful and with a relaxed, slightly vintage impression, it is quite instagrammable as well as the dishes and to the side of the building there are some train cars that are very nice and picturesque, if you have the A chance to take a look around without vandalizing or destroying the property will give them the impression that they've stepped back into the 20th century. In conclusion, the place is pleasant, the treatment is super warm and it is easy to talk to the chef, who is Catalan and gives the impression that he is a very warm person, the food is very rich to the appreciation of the palate that tastes it, it is not cheap food It is not for tight pockets, and if you allow yourself to be generous with your stomach, you will be pleasantly surprised in quality and Spanish gastronomy. There are few photos that I upload this time because I really dedicated myself to enjoying the moment and at times I forgot to photograph the dishes. P.S. If you are a chubby person, the size of the first bathroom could be a bit uncomfortable for you, the one in the back is larger in the ladies' room.
