Tomatito Sexy Tapas Bar is located at the Ground Floor of BGC Corporate Center on 11th Avenue corner 30th Street.
The restaurant is a franchise from Shanghai, China and quite impressive with its well-curated interiors.
The space is expansive with the walls covered in beautiful posters,
dressed-up bottles with attractive wallpaper at the back and
eye-catching murals. It does give off a " sexy " vibe. I saw the design of the Shanghai branch via their website and this one is more alluring and vibrant.
The section with the impressive elongated open kitchen and bright neon letters could be the best spot to hang out in during night time.
I went after lunch with my dog Lilli so we stayed at the alfresco area. For someone like me who's not really that familiar with tapas and montaditos, the Fixed Menu comprised of six items is ideal.
Salmon TNT - " explosive balik smoked salmon with honey and truffle...BOOM!!! ". This was engulfed in seconds since I was very hungry.
Mini Taco de Atun y Pulpo - " tuna and octopus mini taco in crispy wonton ". This was refreshing and I like the serving container.
Croquetas Don Julio - " spicy chorizo and cheese stuffed in jalapeño pepper ".
The lovely, gooey cheese and just right spiciness of the chorizo was quite tasty.
I was supposed to get the Ensalada de Espinacas - " spinach, button mushrooms and manchego cheese " but got something with marinated fish and tomatoes instead. I forgot to clarify.
It was light and good. Its nice to have little dishes only so that I could taste a lot in one visit.
Albondigas - " mom's homemade meatballs in natural tomato sauce ".
The meatballs were alright and nothing really special to gush over.
Arroz Meloso de Mariscos al Estilo de Alicante - " mixed seafood juicy rice like in Alicante, Spain ".
This was delectable, aromatic and would be perfect for those days that you just want to cuddle at home with a nice book or movie and strong air conditioning cooling you from the heat.
I thought the Fixed Menu would be bitin so I got an order of Pulpo a la Tomatito - " octopus with baby potatoes ".
Check out the fun tentacle serving container.
The dish was enticing and delicious. I think that from now on, I will order a pulpo dish whenever I'm in a tapas place.
For dessert, Bollycao - " nutella chocolate brioche buns ".
According to the server, this is a popular street food snack in Spain.
I love Nutella and anything with this addictive treat gets my vote.
I like Tomatito. I hope the place gets filled up during lunch, cocktail hour and dinner. Its beautiful, dynamic, fun and based on what I had, offers a very tasty menu. I will be back some other time.
