Had the day off and decided to have lunch here before checking out Pradasphere. I had wanted to try this place as I saw they did a very nice tapas lunch and was perfect for me as I could sample various things all in one go.El Caido, though address is Hollywood Road, their actual entrance is on Graham Street. The restaurant was very quiet and not full. Layout seemed more like a bar.I was given the set lunch menu as that is all they had during lunch hour. It seemed they no longer do the tapas style lunches anymore but just regular lunch. I heard another customer ask what happened to the tapas lunches and the waiter informed that it had been discontinued. Disappointing for that is what I wanted to try. Anyways ... lunch is now $128 and includes bread, choice of soup or salad, choice of main and coffee or tea. Add $20 for dessert.Before I even decided on what I wanted (probably in fear I'd leave after finding out they no longer do the tapas lunches), a plate of bread with butter and the cicchetti, I assume, was the tomato salsa? Isn't cicchetti supposed to be a little snack?? Anyways, the bread was ok. Nothing to write home about. The salsa was pretty good and very fresh tasting.I decided on the traditional Andalusan gazpacho and the roast suckling pig in Segovian style.The gazpacho was lovely. Nice and rich, yet fresh and cool. I liked the addition of croutons to give it a bit of crunch.Roast suckling pig in Segovian style was ok. The pork skin was crispy but some parts were really hard, almost rock like. The meat was very tender and wonderfully seasoned. The potato tiella was a bit spicy with tart at the same time. I liked it enough. However, the sauce was a complete disappointment as it was a bit bland.I ordered the coffee and it was absolutely horrible. It tasted like burnt water. I didn't finish it.The food was ok. There were a few hit and misses but overall not bad. I would have preferred they stuck with the tapas lunch but oh well...Might return if friends wondered where we could eat.

一直都满喜欢食西班牙菜, 但无奈系香港既西班牙菜馆都几贵... 加上食tapas, jamon.... 唔饮红酒, 总系差d野。俾我系OP揾下揾下, 见到个个都话LEE 间 value for money, 我最钟意试菜, 即刻叫fd 同我试啦。友人打黎去book 位, 话无酒饮, 但free cockage...仲开心。本黎谂住买支spanish wine...但揾唔到, 结果买左支隔离既意大利... 我知道都match 到既 间野其实都隐世, 都要上斜落斜左一阵先揾到, 其实最简单就系 pxxxxxxc coffee 转落去。坐低, 我都好唔客气同我个fd 讲, "其实我谂左食咩"... 真系一d矜持都无... 有酒... 又点可以唔食ham... tapas bar 系casual dining, 都系枱细细, 所以叫左个48mths iberico ham 送下酒先($4xx/100g), 而且就算有iberico ham, 都唔多地方有48months。ham 算系几有油香, 咸度唔系死咸... 但可能...佢切既位置比较上, 有时食到比较干。而且切都比较厚, 但我同朋友都好enjoy 食哂个ham, 就再叫d tapas la, 叫左个Grilled Tiger Prawns, 通常tapas 都用细只既虾仔, lee 度用虎虾, 爽口弹牙, 个蒜片辣椒榄油系灵魂,提鲜加惹味。试得西班牙菜, 点可以唔叫Suckling pig 同 paella, 个Suckling pig皮脆, 但个人黎讲, 我觉得肥左d, 而且某d 位好咸,… 食到尾, 有少少夹硬食咁…Paella, 好体贴地有tapas size, 虾, 蚬都好鲜, 而且d饭入哂味, 我觉得好好味。店内环境好typical 以红色做主打, 我自己觉得好hip, chit chat成晚好开心。

It was said that the Head Chef Gary here has worked under the Fadango kitchen for a few years, a Michelin Guide recommended restaurant specializing in Spanish cuisines. A quick glance through the menu saw a mention of Cicchetti as well, which is the Italian equivalent of Italian tapas, not too different to Italian Stuzzichini. Seems like small portions of food for sharing with drinks is the concept here. The Menu is priced on the Lower side in Town -Someone guess who, once mentioned this is not bad in HK context. I have to agree that the price range here is unforeseeably reasonable. Many Tapas, or Chicchetti are in the $48-58 range only. Self Bringing Your Own Mio Camuzet Bourgogne -Actually after we arrived here and sat down, before the wait staff mentioned sheepishly, their Liquor License is under review so they cannot serve alcohol again. So I quickly ran downstairs in the midst of summer to ETC nearby to grab an emergency bottle. Have always loved this Wine Producer, even if this particular one is generic Burg stuff.. Just not too sophisticated compared to their other appellation bottles ~ 6.9/10 Iberico Pork Burgers - $68The taste was ok only, it does have some porky taste but not quite Iberico oily flavor. But looking at the price tag of $68 for 3 burgers, I can’t even complain. It also wasn’t that grilled enough.. My dining Companion mentioned the 22 Ships version is far superior. ~ 6/10 Salted Cod Fish Balls with Piri Piri Sauce – $68Piri Piri sauce is more Portuguese or African related, but since Spain is a neighboring country I am ok with the concept (as opposed to a Pil Pil sauce which is more Basque-Spain). However the Piri Piri sauce was kind of weakish in recognizable flavours, and to give it the benefit of the doubt probably toned down to locals taste. The death knell sounded when we bit into the so-called Salted Cod Fish croquettes - I could only taste potatoes and non of the Salted Cod fish normally associated with this dish. I know it’s not an expensive dish but I would rather pay more to get a better resulting plate. On a positive side, at least it wasn’t fried oily on the surface ~ 4/10 Grilled Asparagus with Garlicky Piquillo Peppers Butter – $48The Asparagus came with a judicial amount of sea salt flakes, and came with the Peppery and Garlicky butter on the side which was quite enjoyable and thoughtful, finally a dish which worked and I liked, if not a bit small on portioning. The food here has more potential – you can see the heart in some dishes but may be they are trying to work within restraints of a budget? It is more a Drinks place than for Food or Snacks, but perhaps that is the intention of the owners operating this space and the food were definitely on the lower end of the pricing range as a gesture. But that remains it’s biggest attraction for now in terms of the geographical LKF and SOHO crowd than for the real foodies! It’s definitely not bad vs pricing policy, but each to their own.. It’s more like a Bar personally.

对于Tapas bar愈来愈盛行,我是叫好也来不及,因为个人很喜欢吃Tapas, 份量不大可以吃多几款,而且气氛随和,适合与一众好友来吃!环境方面,走的是 Casual 酒吧路线,餐厅中间一张大长枱,客人可选择站著或坐下,气氛轻,如果在附近工作,应该会常来Happy Hour 吧。如果想坐得舒服一点及看街景的话,可选靠窗的位置,能够望到嘉咸街,摆花街街景。先来个小吃拼盘The board,包括各款地道小食如 芝士、Iberico ham及西班牙香肠等等。火腿咸香而油润,余韵悠长,用来配合Sangria最适合。来这里不得不吃 Suckling pig El Caído Style,调味非常的好,先慢煮后烧,因此肉质嫩滑而多汁,是要来多几客的菜式。另一名物是蒜片虎虾Garlic Tiger Shrimp,以高温的橄榄油浸煮虎虾,肉质爽脆,加上的蒜片及辣椒,令虾肉更加惹味。还有叫人惊喜的迷你汉堡,有吃于一般的牛肉汉堡,这里用的是Iberico ham来做汉堡扒,入口更肉汁丰富,肉质松化,是不可错过的菜式。同样地这里的肉丸也是用Iberico ham做的,因此味道特别浓郁,配上新鲜蕃茄酱,平衡了油腻感,是出色的配搭。Paella 材料丰富,吸收了酱汁的饭粒,比起海鲜更加美味。吃过几款小吃质素也不错,而且价格相宜,一般也是数十元,在中环想找个气氛轻松,价格相宜的餐厅,这里是不错的选择。

在中环找个宁静又不多人的地方食个午饭,可真是不容易。上星期行过荷李活道,抬头看到El Caido,已忍不住想一试,今天找到饭脚一齐试一试。两个人点了6款tapas,再加pasta of the day (garlic and chili spaghetti)。同事点了crab cake, potato ball and sucking pig,三款都很香口。最欣赏crab cake,蟹肉味浓。我选了芦笋,croquette and deep fried prawns. 最美味莫于croquette,有别于一般的,非常creamy,又香滑。如果配杯cocktail或sangria ,一定会更好味。
