Dégustation Menu at Barat Mediterranean Vegetarian Restaurant. 3rd course: Roasted Romano with pitted prune and cranberry (left), Patatas Bravas with tomato sauce (centre) and grilled sweet pepper with blue cheese and olive oil. The contrast between the savoury romano and sweet prune and cranberry made for an interesting combination, although I enjoyed it more than Lin did (she found it too sweet). The patatas bravas came with burning sprigs of rosemary and was quite mild-tasting even with the dipping sauce slathered on, so maybe it should have been named 'Patatas Dulce' instead. The sweet pepper was roasted a little too long and was a little too soft for my liking but paired very well with the blue cheese and olive oil, flavour-wise.
