Good things come in small packages.
Sardine Can takes this to heart in more ways than one. Gastowns newest hot spot is also the neighbourhoods smallest, seating about twenty. The menu itself is small bites, focusing on traditional Spanish flavours. Tomato and Manchego Toasts ($5), a play on the popular Catalan appetizer, is an ideal snack when accompanied by a glass of Spanish wine to kick off the meal. Among the seafood options is the Octopus, Potato and Chorizo Stew ($10), a hearty delight. Save room for the Chocolate Terrine ($5.50), a fascinating combination of chocolate, chili, olive oil, and sea salt, served with toast. Just like the proprietors other ventures, La Buca and Pied-à-Terre, Sardine Can is a tiny neighbourhood gem. Anya Georgijevic
