We celebrated Molly's 29th (wink, wink) at Adela, a new tapas place in Fells Point, on Saturday night. We went to the matinee of Mamma Mia! at the Hippodrome beforehand and what fun! I'm going to create my own rock musical using only Rick Springield songs. but I digress...
Adela (www.tapasadela.com) has a cozy atmosphere. Among other things, we shared the croquetas (no ham), a mix of Spanish cheeses, and dates with some sort of bleu cheese. They're REAL Spanish tapas. Some places try to "Americanize" tapas with overpowering sauces, etc., but everything we tried was plain, simple and delicious.
The wait staff was very helpful and friendly, including Executive Chef, Rashad Edwards. He came by our table and explained some of the dishes and checked to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. Can't say I blame him (we looked hot). He also sent us some chocolate (thick hot chocolate in an espresso "mug") and some churros for dessert with his compliments. Sugar for Sugar!
Molly can report on the bathroom. I wouldn't remember it if I'd used it anyway! Needless to say we didn't ride our bikes in our dresses, but we sure do miss riding. For now, we'll have to cab it.
