Bar Topa
Bar Topa remains one of my favourite spots in Sydney's CBD. A little gem of Spanish corner, it reminds me of the holiday I had in Barcelona where I enjoyed a whole host of pintxos - little bite-sized treats to accompany a drink or two.
The cocktails at Bar Topa are little half-pours, which means you can mix and match to your heart's content. At $8 a pour, these cute little numbers don't make a big dent in one's pocket either. Note, however, that the cocktails are pre-made and therefore you won't be able to make adjustments (for example, they only make a vodka martini, not a gin martini).

| Mezcal a la moda, Martini |
 |
| Croquetta, $5 each |
There are three varieties of croquetta - ham (being these ones), spinach and ricotta, and mushrooms. Deep fried and deeply satisfying, they are so fluffy and soft they barely require chewing; and although they are golden brown, they are not greasy at all.
 |
| Chorizo, $10 |
Plump and juicy, with a satisfying bite, the extremely flavourful chorizo are a definite winner. The best part? Mopping up the juices with soft, cloud-like white bread.
 |
| Patatas Bravas, $10 |
Crunchy, gorgeous, crab-y, happy-making little nuggets that are somehow still creamy in the centre. This is a must-order.
 |
| Wagyu steak, $30 |
Probably the most substantial thing on the menu, this is pure satisfaction. Cooked to medium-rare perfection and very simply seasoned, this is one good steak.
Score: 5/5
Cost: approx $40-50pp
Address: 4 Palings La, Sydney NSW
