I was born in Spain and mostly all of what I ate during my childhood was Spanish food. Safe to say, I know good Spanish cuisine.
Piperade's food is authentic and tastes the same as my grandma would cook. Go there, you'll like it.
I took my parents there last night for my moms b'day and had wonderful time. The food was truely excellent as was the service.
Piperade has great seafood - I've tried several of the fish entrees and have never been disappointed. It is always cooked well and flavored just right for a savory taste. Save the best for last - mousse with roasted almonds! The crisp, toasted almonds are the perfect complement to a mousse that is just right - not too sweet and not too bland. What a great dessert! But really, everything else is worth trying too!
