Snap Squad: Lunch at Tinto

Posted by ashley primis on June 18th, 2009

Remember to send pics of your great meals to me at aprimis@phillymag.com — everyone who sends in shots has a chance to win two seats at our next RC dinner!

Where: Tinto, 114 South 20th Street
When: Thursday, June 18th, 12:30 p.m.
Who: Tim H. and dining companion Bob A.

Tim’s Starter: Caldo de Donostia (crab and seafood chowder) — the mussels and clams were as rich and velvety as sweetbreads.


 

Bob’s Starter: Arugula salad with serrano ham, figs, fried goat cheese, and pine nuts dressed with a Sevilla orange vinaigrette.


 

Tim’s Second Course: Fried oyster sandwich with choricero pepper tartar and sweet onion escabeche. (It didn’t come bun askew — I did that so you could see the oysters.)


 

Bob’s Second Course: Butifarra — housemade garlic sausage with lentils in a Pedro Ximenez sherry reduction. You wouldn’t believe the waves of flavor that burst out of that sausage.
