I haven't met my friends last year for a year. We decided to go to Ole for a happy gathering. I had a lengthyyyyy meeting so I was late. By the time I got there, they were enjoying Spanish olives, rustic bread, of course, relaxing and having a zip of Tempranillo and a Forever Young. After a glass of sparkling water, I ordered a Coo Coo. It was so refreshing, made of coconut milk, pineapple, probably with some lime juice as well.

We kept chatting and ordered some Spanish iberico ham. It wasn't very salty, but well, cleanly fermented for a long time. No tendons or tough tissues found, excellent!
We chatted so much I nearly forgot to eat Alioli Potato. The potato was made just right. The Aliolo was creamy, aromatic, slightly garlicky. Yummy!!
I love veggies, so we ordered Spanish Tomato Salad. No regrets! The tomatoes were truly from Spain, it was sweet but not mushy. Very tomato flavored, even stronger than freshly picked local organic tomatoes. Olive oil and chopped garlic. Healthy and tasty! Sorry I forgot to take a photo until we ate half of it.
Iberico ham and chicken croquettes was crispy but not oily. It was smooth inside and you can taste bits of iberico ham. Num!
I hesitated to eat Padron Peppers with Romesco Sauce. After a bite, I just couldn't stop eating it. The pepper was sweet, with a charred flavor, love it!! The house made romesco sauce was slightly sweet, with a balanced mixed herbs and garlic. I wanted more...
Stuffed piquillo pepper with cod surprised me. If you eat it at normal speed, you'll find 1 layer of food with Parmesan. But if you slow down, you'll find the cod was wrapped in pepper. Amazing!
I don't eat lamb anymore, but my pals urged me to eat some Grilled Baby Lamb Chop (try not to waste food). The baby lamb chop was well grilled and I love that grilled flavor. The lamb itself was tender and sweet. Nearly forgot to mention the Shoestring Fries. It was so crispy, simply salted, but it was so good my friends and I kept munching on it. No one string left. Ha ha.
Roasted suckling pig is always my favourite. Wherever I go and I order it. Ole must be using a very premium piggy. The meat was flavorful. The piggy must be eating all kinds of good food, not just eating "cereals". The meat was so juicy while the skin was crispy. There was no need to add Balsamic vinegar, simply, the piggy itself was attractive enough!
As a complete happy meal, dessert is a must !I chose fig pie. I think Ole uses Turkish figs. They are huge and sweet! My mom just bought some from a health food store and it tasted just like that. After adding Port wine sauce, the taste was just perfect!! Of course. I'm spoiled to eat most of the vanilla ice cream 😁
For a nice ending, we had some Pedro Ximenez. It sparkled by the candle. I never had this wine before, so I smelled and took a zip. It was like sweet grapes and raisins. Immediately I thought of a vineyard...
By the way, I didn't gave much time to explore the restaurant environment, but the Spanish music and setup made me feel like I were in Spain. What a transition from a lengthy and boring meeting to such an enjoyable dinner! I definitely wanna enjoy a dinner there soon!
