About Cava

Galway, Ireland
Cava opened in May 2008. It is the only Spanish Restaurant in Galway. It serves Tapas,รก la carte, Lunch and brunch and is opened 7 days a week. It is said to have the best Tapas in Ireland and its all Spanish Wine and beer menu is the largest in Ireland.

The end, or only the begining?

Well! That was some week. Looking back now on a week of madness (due no doubt to Tom's review) I am wondering whether or not it will continue. Not that I want it to stop. Last week, we saw what Cava could be, given all the right circumstances. It is amazing what the words of one man can do. It will be interesting how the week pans out. I already know Saturday is going to be crazy with tables of 26, 15, and 10 all coming in at the same time. But how the rest of the week will go remains to be seen.

Monday was not too bad with a steady stream of punters in. Lots of tapas, particularly the scallops and black pudding, confit of porkbelly, and cod cakes.

Really nice people in with lots of nice things to say about the nice things they we do and try to continue to do.

The November menu is in cererbal production. Thinking of game tapas: venison, rabbit, pheasant.

I think we'll also change some of our fish. We had some great sardines on the special board over the weekend which we got from Stefan. Served with romesco and rocket. Really good. Some nice Bonito also.

Anyway.

I saw a really nice Jamon custard served with Iberico, also some truffle foam with cecina.

Szymon would that I presume.
