The Renaissance collection blackstone hotel intertwines French beaux arts style, classic 20's decor elements with contemporary modern accents to give a sensational feeling that screams... Take me to the dining room!
The modern Catalan inspired dining room of the Mercator boasts 3 floor high ceilings, warm troves of orange, yellow and purple all with a vibrant energetic buzz:
Tapas style, there are plenty of delicious choices.
The lomo embuchado is thinly sliced beef loin, brought out with a spicy mustard, cornelian pickles and chopped peppers:
The bacon wrapped dates stuffed with almonds and drizzled with a light blue cheese were divine:
Bring on the gambas! Fire roasted garlic infused and red pepper splashed shrimp come sizzling and steaming deliciously:
The espinacas a la Catalan, spinach sauteed with raisins, pine nuts and topped with shredded apples in a light broth were fantastic:
The grilled pacific halibut with lemon and spinach purée:
Bacon wrapped loin was phoneme, drenched with a light mushroom sauce and served on a crispy polenta stick:
The raw cow milk cheese with a sherry bacon Carmel dipping sauce and slice apples was an interesting play on flavors:
The Cana de cabra, a goat cheese with balsamic strawberries was also equally satisfying:
With pomegranate infused sangrias and lively atmosphere, Mercat brings a little bit of the Catalan experience and flavors for enjoyment.
