Spanish and Italian Tapas

I met Jonathan at Pil Pil for some first course tapas, we had albonigas, potatoes, and bacalhau. 

Then we moved on to Allero, an Italian place in the neighborhood that Jonathan liked and I hadn't previously tried. We had the bread, though I only ate the olives before needing the bread to sauce mop. We shared an eggplant pairing, an eggplant tourine, a parmesan mousse and a breaded piece, reminiscent of a deconstructed eggplant parm. We also split the marscapone ravioli topped with sea urchin and black truffle. It squirted across the table when I cut into the first one. We laughed so hard the first 4 courses nearly came back up!
