All you can eat Tapas on Wednesdays for $22, which started well enough...but wish we hadn't entertained the idea of trying everything off the menu! Needless to say...there was a good choice of food, and generally speaking they were well prepared/presented....although we did end up feeling like we swallowed their dee-fat fryer...but that was our own fault...we should have just...
