Another great meal at O'lume. Jaime happy as usual, great service. The Ravioli with mushroom sauce is fantastic like everything else he serves. Nice meeting Smiddy as well
Back next week (as last week) See you again Jaime

Just want to echo what most people already know about this place. The food is top class as is Jaime. His passion for food is so refreshing & on a personal note I would like to thank him for his meals & the fantastic nights we spent in his company.

Has the menu changed much since re opening ?...would like to make plans already

 

[Sparky]

Much of the old menu is still available but Jaime and the chef have added some dishes that used to be served when O Lume was first opened in the old location, i don't think you will be disappointed Ironman .

Did not notice or look for the duck salad but yes the black and white mousse is available

 

[Sparky]

I am sure the duck salad was on the menu .

Not a wipe clean one then Sparky....... sorry

 

[marilyn]

Excellent news. My mouth is salivating at the thought. Roll on October.

O Lume are now offering a 3 course MDD at lunchtimes, this will be available right through the year and will change every 2 or 3 days. You have a choice of 3 starters, 2 main courses and a home made dessert with water and a drink included for 15€ .

That's really good value! Will definitely be partaking of that on several occasions when we are out in April!

For anyone who is here at the moment, i have just had a phone call from Jaime to tell me he has got some lovely fresh fish in today at very good prices, they include Sea Bass, Sole and Cod, Apparently the recent severe storms off the north coast of Spain have meant there are lots of fish being caught .

 

[kate1]

I guess there's a silver lining to every cloud - haven't noticed fish being freely proffered in UK restaurants following our recent storms, sadly! Although some of those restaurants are probably still underwater... Jaime's fish is lovely - his salt baked version in particular - anyone lucky enough to be in PP right now, you'd be crazy to miss the opportunity!

sparks ma darling, not sure about fish off north spain coast tbh

I'm up by ullapool often off NW Scotland on business many many spainish factory processing boats sit off there waiting on catches, crab, prawn, languistine, cod, lobster etc etc

our NW coastline catches often end in the med marketed as "local dishes" fact !

 

[scotslizzy]

Know what you mean ....

About ten years ago we had a long weekend up in Tarbet Loch Fyne and on the Monday all we saw were big articulated lorries loading up shellfish to take down to the markets in Madrid.

It is one reason why I am always wary of ordering langoustines at fish restaurants in Spain as I would rather wait for a nice visit up to Loch fyne etc to taste them fresh .

Hi guys i completely understand what you are saying, coming as i do from Plymouth i would see lorry loads of seafood landed on the Barbican and taken up to London to be exported. However i can assure you that this fish has been caught and shipped from Galicia.......i have been in O Lume today and Jaime has shown me the "facturas" (bills) .
