Our first fancy meal. We decided to make lunches the main dining event and to eat a little something at the apartment in the evenings. Malabar restaurant did not have tasting menu (not sure if it is the lunch thing) but our waiter mentioned that we can order 1/2 portions. So I ordered almost every appetizer.
Pisco sour was refreshingly citrusy.
Corn tacos
Scallops came with roe attached
Bread was made with yuca and other local flours
Bonito topped with quail egg
Foie gras mousse sandwiched between super thin dried Apple slices. Can't wait to try making it at home, may be with chicken pate.
Clam dish
Pork tacos in banana shell
Seared tuna
Fresh hearts of palm salad, so different from canned hearts of palm! To quote my husband: "if I had to be vegetarian, I would eat this every day".
Quiona and various potatoes salad
Octopus
Beet salad
There re was no room for dessert.
Cost with two drinks and two small water bottles: a little over 100 dollars US
