One day in 2018 when I walk to 1MK to do groceries as usual, spotted this newly open Spanish restaurant cum deli situated at the corner-front of 1MK. Out of sudden there are 2 Spanish restaurant open in the neighbourhood before 2018 end. Their friendly waiter and waitress never fail to greet "hola" to invite whenever I walk pass that corner for all these years. Then another day, me and my friend were talking about the Spanish anchovies then he suggest we can try out Mercat since they have promo going on every Wednesday. So here we are, enjoying some tapas with a glass of wine on a Wednesday night, sitting at a table with high chairs and mural on a blue wall where a main (that looks like Charlie Chaplin) lift up the wine glass.
There is a promo on the tapas - pay 2 get 3. I let friend decided on the tapas since he knows better than me. And off course we did not miss out to try the anchovy, we order a Boquerones Fritos which is fried Spanish fresh anchovies (preserved in vinegar); Berenjena A Sada Con Miel - Roast eggpplant with honey and hazelnut, and Pork sliders with manchego cheese, red pepper, roast onion and broche bun. I like the fried anchovies - simple yet crips and tasty. Roast eggplant a kind of mushy - didn't expect that and the pork sliders is bite size so the portion is just nice and not heavy. Keen to try their mains next time.
