You might be saying... hey... those don't look like the original grilled leek dish you're used to. And you'd be right. This is the chef's "outside in" interpretation of the classic Spanish dish - and a daring but successful one at that. The gnocchi-looking dumplings were comprised of the white part of the leek with a surprise squooshy center of leek goodness, the green dollop in the middle representing the green of the leek (obvi!), the red spots a burst of paprika sauce and then the soup made of leek sweat (tastier than it sounds). Put a bit of everything in your mouth and then dip your finger in that black powder around the plate for an INTENSE burny, leaky, charry delightful finish. Amazingly executed.
