Anada

I love going to Gertrude Street, Fitzroy, for something to eat and drink. I've been eyeing off Anada for some time. I caught up with B finally and we went to Anada for dinner. It was a Tuesday night and nearly a full-house. The service was really good and the food fantastic. The menu had plenty of tapas options and raciones (larger share plates)

B and I chose four tapas which came with some bread and olive oil. The salt cod croquettes, I could eat everyday (if someone else would cook them for me) had the right amount of crunch with soft fish inside. I've not had manchego (sheeps milk cheese) before but it was a good flavoured cheese and not overly strong with the sweet bite of quince.

The deep fried mussels were soft and crispy, the walnut dressing was great with mussels.

The char-grilled chorizo was probably my favourite on the night. The combination of the smokiness from the char-grill with the flavour of the meat. Delicious. I was just sorry I was a bit too full to order another!
