My favorite tapas are Scallop with potato foam and Croqueta. A while ago they used to have a Racion called Poor-man's Potatoes; I used to love that but they have taken this off their menu. :( Movida if you are reading this please consider bringing it back.

Mind blowing. Glad you had a similar experience. I must find out what the surprise in the mandarin is!

I managed to avoid doing it in the restaurant itself, but made it to the bathroom. I had a busy day and hadn't eaten much before getting there, and the combination of very rich food and some Spanish bubbly did it. I have also vomited after eating at another Melbourne restaurant with rich food. I must confess to vomiting at Movida as well.
