Experiencia Gastronomica

Last Wednesday I went with two amigos to an all-you-can-eat Japanese buffet in Barceloneta (a waterfront district). The food came by in little plates on a conveyor belt. It was delicious and super fun to try lots of new things. A few highlights...

Snails. Briny but with a pleasant chewy texture.

Delicious little fried squid. Not really like calamari, because the little squid have a very soft texture. 

Salad of chopped octopus and imitation crab marinated in olive oil with onion and peppers. I don't know if this is a Spanish-Japanese fusion item, but it was served cold and salty and I liked it.

My friend Patty eating some sort of large prawn item. (She was the de facto guide to the unfamiliar dishes what with being Thai and all.)

All in all we must have had over 50 little plates, and probably up to 100, between the three of us. Quite satisfying!
