Amor at amada

In an attempt to try out some new restaurants during restaurant week, I went to Amada with Elizabeth today.
I was struck by the elegant design of the restaurant from the outside, and didn't even notice it was a restaurant at first. We shared the salchichón (thin salami) for an appetizer, then each had a pumpkin soup with toasted pumpkin seeds, and each got different sandwiches. It's not an overstatement when I say it was the best sandwich I've ever had. French bread. Chicken. Bacon. Thinly cut lettuce. Tomatoes. Finely grated cheese. Creamy cheese sauce on bread. Deliciousness.
Elizabeth had a vegetarian sandwich with eggplant and hummus, which was more like a panini; she said it was delicious too. Along with our sandwiches came spicy french fries with some of the cheese sauce on top. The sauce was sort of like an improved version of the nacho cheese sauce.

For dessert was a chocolate custard with berries and a raspberry sorbet. Equally as delicious.

Of course we had to document the occasion, so here are some pictures.
