Ever gone out with a group of girlfriends and two hours later been
presented with a bill for $400 and think: how’d that happen?
Now there’s no need to spend the equivalent of a Phillip Lim jacket on
girls-night out. Espana,
the new West End Spanish tapas bar from Brit Neil Taylor (formerly of
London’s famous riverside Cafe by way of Cibo), offers cheap-as-chips
(or should we say salt cod and potato croquettes?) options that are as
tasty as they are affordable.
Local chorizo ($6), Catalan Spinach with pine nuts and raisins ($6),
Tuna Steak ($9), crispy squid with chili jam, yogurt and mint ($9) – you
can’t really go wrong here.
Now don that Phillip Lim jacket and get out there! Sarah Bancroft
