I’d been going to Sentidos Tapas from the days before it was part of the Feast Village of Starhill Gallery. I used to go for their bread and butter pudding (one of the best I’d had), paella and some pretty good Sangria – generous portions, full tasting and with decent wine that packed a punch. A visit for sangria and bread and butter pudding about 3 years ago ago however revealed that quality was not as good as I remembered it from days of yore. I did remember that their savouries were still good.
I’d known they were owned by the people who owned Flamenco’s. The giveaway was the bread and butter pudding. I’d tasted it once at Flamenco’s and when I had it at Sentidos I knew it was the same. Asking around confirmed it. Background story is important here. Many a family celebration had taken place at Sentidos Tapas, Starhill over the years.
However, after a recent episode at Sentidos Tapas I’m boycotting the place for two reasons – a rude run in with someone proclaiming to be the owner and food quality and portions that are not commensurate with price.
I’d offered to buy dinner for a friend’s birthday and there was a group of us for dinner. Friend suggested Sentidos Tapas and as it had been a while since we’d been, we thought it might be good to revisit. We had placed our orders and food was served in a timely fashion. I was of course with my camera – mostly for photo practise. I wasn’t planning to blog at all. Naturally all that changed as you will see.
