The dish on Asian Tapas
11.10.09
The name of the restaurant pretty much says it all: Asian Tapas. The new eatery in Irvine offers pan-Asian takes on the Spanish name for small plates. Choose from nearly 40 different small dishes, ranging from popcorn chicken and dumplings to salt and pepper pork ribs and scallion pancakes, all ranging from $2 to $9 each. The house special is Beijing’s most famous dish, Peking Duck ($35), which takes 24 hours to prepare. The finished product is a beautifully roasted duck with crispy and flavorfully marinaded skin.
Look for weekday $2 to $3.50 Happy Hour specials from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., and for a limited time, go online to nab a buy one tapa and get one free coupon.
