Barcelona proper is approximately 3,781 miles east. While we’re big fans of GaudÃ, the Catalan culture, and the unrivaled freshness of the innovative local cuisine, this is not a travel blog about Spain.
We’re tipping our hat to the tastiest neighbors a boutique hotel could dream of. If you have yet to partake in the vinicultural highs or Spanish-inspired tapas downstairs from the Hi-Ho, we recommend you stop reading (no, really) and do so, immediately. Even if you’re not staying at the hotel, you need to be very familiar with this foodie favorite.
Here are a few of our staff picks, in no particular order:
Bread and Olive Oil (no joke, it’s delicious)
Chorizo w/ Sweet and Sour Figs
Gambas al Ajillo
Hanger Steak
Sobrasada Fideos
Did we mention that Hi-Ho guests can get reservation priority and room service, during certain hours? It’s true.
So in lieu of boarding a plane, and crossing the Atlantic, hop off the Merritt Parkway and enjoy some incredible Spanish-inspired cuisine. The staff is great, the vibe is fun, and you don’t need a passport. Salud!
