Ataula
Striking small plates take center stage at this Spanish restaurant, where Chef-Owner Jose Chesa turns out an artful array of tapas that are as delightful to look at as they are to eat. A real stunner is the pulpo carpaccio, made from delicate slices of tender octopus that come adorned with a dazzling array of toppings that include sun-dried tomatoes, Parmigiano Reggiano, toasted pine nuts and olive oil caviar. “It’s a whole symphony of flavors,” Guy declared after taking a bite.
