Mis Trucos Launch Party

A few weeks back, Ryan Bazeley invited me to the opening night of the Davie Street tapas bar Mis Trucos. Located at 1141 Davie Street, where the old Davie Street Cafe used to be, I found myself surrounded by lots of wonderful local foodie and liquor bloggers. I figured that, while some of my friends (including Mark Busse) had already sampled some of Mis Trucos’ wonderful tapas, I would give myself the opportunity to try them so I went down and tried a few, along with some tasty cocktails. As many of you may know, Madrid is pretty much second-home to me, and the Spanish cuisine and spirits are amongst my very favorites. Until we had Mis Trucos, I was basically a total slave to La Bodega for tapas and sangria. Now there’s an additional option.

In the words of the owners, Mis Trucos…

Mis Trucos is a modern Mediterranean tapas bar set in a character house in the heart of the Davie St. shopping district. Chef Kris Barnholden combines classic French, Spanish and Italian recipes with the freshest local ingredients and his own modern twists.

I would strongly recommend Mis Trucos for a quiet evening out, the atmosphere at this tapas bar is great. Thanks to Ryan for inviting me and to Mis Trucos for the warm welcome! I look forward to visiting again very soon.
