Maybe the best dish of our entire trip; duck foie (pasties de higado) sandwiched between crackers bread with sweet compote of boniato (sweet potatoes). I ordered two per person but the owner's wife told us we needed one, each. Heaven in my mouth....

From the specials menu: "Mosquito," crisply fried mix of the tiniest crabs you ever saw (I was amazed by how tiny they were when I saw them raw in the market the next day) and equally little shrimp...ailioli...could anything be better? Yes, maybe, cause most of the dish was the fry and there was not much of the critter to savor..parnter tried and did not like...no surprise there..

Is this the best eggplant dish I've ever eaten? I think so: Peeled eggplant with rectangular cube of honeycomb and caramelized goat cheese, on which the eggplant rests.....a million "wows!"

Close up of this eggplant miracle......we knew we had to turn to try this, and the foie, one more time!! And we did, two nights later, as I had booked two dinners here many months in advance, thanks to Maribel's recommendation and the online chatter in the Spanish gastro press!!

I'd never had an ensaladilla (typical Spanish cvcild salad that includes potatoes and other things) with a bruleed crust before; the toque of Chef Quique Dacosta, who has earned 3 Michelin starts tag his Denia flagship) and under whose helm the restaurant operates

Part of the carta at LLISA NEGRA, VALENCIA. I highly recommend going here if you cannot get out to the traditional rice restaurants in the hinterlands of Valencia.

There's that bread with the ailioli; they brought it to the table without us ordering it but one bite and I did not care! I guess it's like a cover, or bread, charge.

Cold starters, among them the esgarret, typical "salad" of Spain's eastern coast. Two types of peppers, eggplant, and bits of bacalao drenched in fruity olive oil from near Murcia. Fantastic!!! Fantastic!!!!
