100 BEST ’16: ENSALADA DE JAMÓN at AMADA

I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2016…

We certainly eat with our eyes before anything else. And the presentation of the ham salad at Amada is proof of that. Even before I tasted the high-quality serrano ham wrapped around the bright salad of arugula, figs, spice almonds, and cabrales cheese, I knew this was going to be a dish worth remembering. And it does taste as good as it looks. Price: $15
