¡So, if like us, you’ve spent the weekend looking out your old Barry White albums then you’ll already know there’s a lot of pressure to be romantic on Valentine’s Day, so, this year we thought we’d make our Menú de San Valentin super easy for you by covering the first, the last...the everything! (¡That’s the last Barry White reference, we promise!) ¡Starting with a our amazing Homemade Sourdough Bread & Dips and a Grazing Board of Spanish Meats & Cheese, all you’ll be required to do on the evening is choose two tapas dishes from our main menu that we’ll serve accompanied by two of most popular sharing dishes...all of which will be followed by an extra special dessert to be shared! (¡that’ll we’ll be sharing pictures of tomorrow!) And not only that, we’ve even taken the hassle out of ordering wine for you by including the perfect wine to enjoy with your meal, a bottle of Red or white Rioja from our favourite Rioja House, Navajas! ¡All for the phenomenal price of £80 per couple! ¡Bookings for Valentines Day must be made directly to the restaurant, so, give us a call to make a reservation! ☎️ Love, The Tapa Team @petalsbytheshore.leith #tapa #tapas #romance #valentines #2019 #sanvalentin #theshore #edinburgh

We know been missing in action from Instagram recently (¡we’ve just been soooooo busy!) but we thought we’d take a moment to share with you something we’ve been working on in our absence... Espuma de Mojito: A Delicate Mojito Foam Designed to Revive Your Palate. ¡Forming part of our Hogmanay Gala Menu, if you like the look of it and you haven’t yet figured out your plans for New Years Eve, give us a call!☎️ ¡We’ve had a couple of last minute cancellations, so, unbelievably, we have a few free tables! ¡But be quick, they’re very much on a first come first serve basis! 🥘✌️ ¡We hope you’ve had a great Christmas! Love, The Tapa Team #tapa #tapas #edimburgo #edinburgh #hogmanay #newyearseve #2018

¡So, with all the excitement of the Menu change yesterday (¡if you’ve not already seen it, definitely check out our previous post!) we forgot to post our #internationalsherryweek homage! ¡So here it is...the rarest of all sherries🥁🥁🥁Palo Cortado! ¡And ours is the utterly sublime, 30 year old Apostoles from González Byass! ¡Named after the 12 butts of Sherry created for the visit of Queen Isabel II in 1862 (¡each butt was named after an apostle with the twelfth, Judas, being filled with vinegar!) a Palo Cortado is incredibly difficult to describe...particularly in this tiny box! However, it’s initially aged under a Flor like a Fino or Amontillado but, inextricably, loses this veil and is then allowed to age oxidatively like an Oloroso! And because of this, it’s a complex journey on the palate...starting with citrusy orange peel moving to sweet caramel before finishing with warm toasted almond flavours! ¡Seriously, it’s stunning! ¡And a real treat when paired with our Presa Iberica tapa- which we Char-Grill & Adorn with Peach Alioli and Candied Pine Nuts! ¡¿How good do they look together?! 🤷‍♂️ ... ¡We only one more Sherry post to make now, so, keep your eyes peeled! ¡We hope you’re having a great weekend! Love, The Tapa Team #tapa #tapas #sherry #palocortado #apostoles #apostles #presa #iberica #edinburgh #edimburgo

¡It’s cold, it’s damp and it’s dark by the time you finish work- we’d definitely forgive you for day dreaming of Iberia at the moment...because we’ve been doing a lot of that too, but, we’ve also been craving the comforting hug of a bowl seafood stew...and it was only when we finally made some for staff meals yesterday that we realised it would also make a bloody amazing winter Special! Introducing, then... Suquet: A Warming Catalan Fish Stew, Enriched with Clams, Mussels, Prawns, Squid, Cuttlefish and Cod. 🦑 !Trust us, it’s as amazing as it looks! ¡Anyway! ¡It’s Friday...you’re nearly there! ¡We’d love to see you this weekend, but, if not, have a great weekend! Love, The Tapa Team . . #fish #stew #fishstew #suquet #catalan #tapa #tapas #theshore #leith #edinburgh #edimburgo #prawns #clams #squid #cod

¡Oh! ¡¿And did we mention yesterday that there’s also an After Eight and a Toblerone Martini in our new ‘Dessert in a Glass’ Cocktail Menu?! ... ¡¿And FYI...after taking these pictures this morning we’ve been furiously debating when is too early to start drinking cocktails on a Friday!? ¡So we’d love to hear your thoughts! ... ¡We hope you’re having a good Friday, you’re nearly there! ... Love, The Tapa Team ... @after__eight @tobleroneglobal #aftereight #toblerone #dessert #cocktail #cocktails #tapa #tapas #tastespain #edinburgh #edimburgo

¡And for our final Sherry of #internationalsherryweek we have a Sherry for you that we literally cannot big up enough 🥁🥁🥁Ladies and Gentlemen, it’s our pleasure to introduce you to our ultimate Sherry, the utterly luscious Noe Pedro Ximenez! A 30 year old vintage Sherry made from sun dried grapes, it’s entirely unique and super sweet, with flavours of dates, cinnamon, chocolate, cloves, treacle and caramel- it’s beyond incredible when paired with our Tabla de Quesos dish at the end of your meal! ¡Or over ice cream for that fact! ¡Or drunk straight from the bottle! 🤷‍♂️ Well, you get the idea! We couldn’t love this stuff more! ¡Seriously, we got some on our hands when we were prepping this photo and we’re not embarrassed to say we licked it straight off! We’re still tasting it on our lips now! ... ¡If we’re not seeing you tonight, have a great Saturday evening and we’ll be back with more exciting snippets when we return to the restaurant on Tuesday! Love, The Tapa Team #tapa #tapas #sherry #noe #pedroximenez #saturday #weekend #theend

¡New Menu Alert! ¡Yep, as the nights draw in and scarves start creeping out of the wardrobe again...it’s time for an autumnal menu revamp! ¡Here’s a sneak peek of one of our new dishes, available from 12pm today! Vieiras: Pan Seared Scallops, Sat Atop of a Roasted Butternut Squash Salsa, Dressed in a Herb & Garlic Infused Olive Oil & Adorned with Toasted Pumpkin Seeds. ... ¡Drops mic! ⬇️ ...
