Iberia Restaurant Take out and Delivery Menu Starters IBERIA RESTAURANT TAKE OUT AND DELIVERY MENU Wed to Sun from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm (lunch hours coming soon) Please Call 650-325-8981 to Order Hola Amigos – A word (or two) about our takeout menu. The foods that Iberia Restaurant has available to take home are not meant to replace a restaurant experience – we will always wash the dishes – instead they are meant to be imbued with that warm and cozy feeling associated with good food available in our pantry or fridge. With that in mind the Refrigerated Pantry section of our menu will reflect that, from a bag of veggies and olive oil to fresh fish filets ready for the BBQ or oven (recipes available) or a lamb stew ready to be easily reheated, and soon a paella kit, including the paella pan so you can be the star of Instagram. Of course, you can also feast with freshly prepared specialties to enjoy on the moment, from Paella to Gambas al Ajillo and of course dates! The menu will evolve and change often with new dishes and cooking ideas, so stay in touch. – Jose Luis STARTERS $12.50 LARGE CAESAR SALAD, for one to three GAMBAS al AJILLO, prawns, toasted garlic, sherry wine $19.00/0.5lb TORTILLA de PATATAS (9 in.) $18.00 DATILES ENDIABLADOS, chorizo-stuffed and bacon wrapped dates $1.75 ea.

La SPAGNA -il nostro fiore all’occhiello- la conosciamo tanto quanto la amiamo. Moltissimo. Non minore attenzione e passione nutriamo per l’intrigante PORTOGALLO, Paese neolatino affacciato sull’Atlantico. Ai viaggiatori (turisti? No grazie) suggeriamo il PACIFICO, che non è Un Oceano, ma L’Oceano. Siamo un tour operator specializzato, adesso è di moda dire “di nicchia”. Per questo non disponiamo di “venditori” (ormai il vero “venditore” è il programma leggibile nel sito, arriva ovunque e non disturba), non vendiamo attraverso consorzi, net o gruppi d’acquisto (contiamo sulla professionalità delle agenzie che antepongono la qualità di un viaggio a una overcommission imposta dagli ordini di scuderia), non “facciamo pubblicità” (ci pensano già i programmi), non abbiamo bisogno di comprare nomi e know how scomparsi (li abbiamo già). Siamo estremamente attenti all’attuale cambiamento epocale del Turismo (vedi nel programma Portogallo il primo tariffario dedicato a chi vola Low Cost). dizionario 15x21cm 16pag 11-05-2006 9:34 Pagina 1 Gian Paolo Bonomi ...l’uomo è ciò che mangia...

  • National Dish
    National dish From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_dish A national dish is a culinary dish that is strongly associated with a particular country.[1] A dish can be considered a national dish for a variety of reasons: • It is a staple food, made from a selection of locally available foodstuffs that can be prepared in a distinctive way, such as fruits de mer, served along the west coast of France.[1] • It contains a particular 'exotic' ingredient that is produced locally, such as the South American paprika grown in the European Pyrenees.[1] • It is served as a festive culinary tradition that forms part of a cultural heritage—for example, barbecues at summer camp or fondue at dinner parties—or as part of a religious practice, such as Korban Pesach or Iftar celebrations.[1] • It has been promoted as a national dish, by the country itself, such as the promotion of fondue as a national dish of Switzerland by the Swiss Cheese Union (Schweizerische Käseunion) in the 1930s. Pilaf (O'sh), a national dish in the cuisines of Central Asia National dishes are part of a nation's identity and self-image.[2] During the age of European empire-building, nations would develop a national cuisine to distinguish themselves from their rivals.[3] According to Zilkia Janer, a lecturer on Latin American culture at Hofstra University, it is impossible to choose a single national dish, even unofficially, for countries such as Mexico, China or India because of their diverse ethnic populations and cultures.[2] The cuisine of such countries simply cannot be represented by any single national dish.

  • Manual Chapter - Cuisine (5 January 1993) H
    •· I Manual Chapter - Cuisine (5 January 1993) H. cuisine cuisine is used to describe the culinary derivation of a food. H.1 Definition cuisine is characterized by dietary staples and foods typically consumed; specific ingredients in mixed dishes; types of fats, oils, seasonings, and sauces used; food preparation techniques and cooking methods; and dietary patterns. The culinary characteristics of population groups have developed and continue to develop over time. Cuisines have traditional names based primarily on geographic origin. A few cuisine names reflect ethnicity or other factors. Cuisines with several or multiple influences are listed in the hierarchy according to their major influence. Descriptors from this factor should be used primarily for prepared food products (e.g., entrees, desserts, cheeses, breads, sausages, and wines). Descriptors for cuisine should only be used if the cuisine can be easily determined from external evidence such as: the food name; a cuisine indication on a food label; the culinary identification of a restaurant, recipe, or cookbook; or the country of origin of the food, unless another cuisine is indicated. The indexer is not required to make a judgement about cuisine, nor is the indexer required to examine a food to determine its cuisine. Note that some food names have geographic descriptors that do not always identify a cuisine (e.g., Swiss cheese, Brussels sprouts). If in doubt, refer to the foods already indexed to determine whether the food name indicates a specific cuisine. The cuisine of foods may be important in establishing relationships of diet to health and disease. Cuisine provides information about a food from a cultural viewpoint and may assist in assist in more clearly identifying a food.
