RESTAURANT REVIEW: Boules (Ensenada)
Dining , Restaurants - August 25, 2010"How do you see the kitchen? Just two weeks have put that. "He asked me to teach Javi your newly installed Boules casual dining. And is that while Boules and grill worked like a weekend in the familiar, at least for petanque players - San Miguel, the restaurant itself, is just beginning.
By Carlos Valenzuela
Boules can be expected in a casual cuisine, casual, mixing very interesting and very well-made ingredients of Baja, and very border. What's more, is located in San Miguel, on a ridge that visually dominate Sauzal ports and Ensenada, offers breathtaking sunsets.
The little place of Javier Martinez-Molina Benito former partner in his flagship Manzanilla-takes its name from the balls used for playing petanque, and that right there is the traditional home of the pitch Monday.
Since coming on, try some of the dishes served with wine Boules José Luis Durand, an excellent combination. It is worth noting that in a matter of wines, Boules has focused on having labels that represent quality rather than quantity.
We started with a plate of oysters natural habanero sauce accompanied. Oysters, as expected in Ensenada, need very little if anything, I would say, to delight, but a touch of habanero gives another layer of flavor that makes them even richer. The Marella accompanied the Fumé Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc fermented and aged in oak, very well balancing acidity and smoky notes.
We continue with the mussels with pesto, now with the Planet Moscato, also of José Luis. The texture, freshness and doneness of the mussels is crucial, and Boules did well without any problems. The flavors of the pesto vegetable Perfect with playful profile Moscato.
Then came what for me was the signature dish of Boules, a cone, or crispy taco at TacoBell-style, with oysters, clams, beans, salsa, avocado and do not remember what else. The combination of textures, flavors, acidity and flavors tone make it a true delight. Was accompanied by Marcel, cabernet carbonic maceration Beaujolais Nouveau-style, which added another layer of flavor to the party.
Then came the grilled dishes, try the grouper and the rib, of which I can only say that continued to surprise with the simplicity and excellent performance is demonstrated in the early stages.
In short, if you want a relaxed atmosphere where you can take a comfortable talk while the kids-and not so young, playing in the garden, take a good wine or two and enjoy unpretentious cuisine of Baja, without breaking the bank, Boules is a great option.
Atmosphere: Casual, Family.
Prices: Moderate.
Cuisine: Low-med, fresh seafood and grilled meats.
The good: The location, cuisine and wines available.
The bad: It's a boy, get there early, nothing is resolved waiting with a beer or white wine and a game of petanque.
Bottom Line: Completely recommended.

Carlos,
The crispy taco cone or is a symbolic meal of Ensenada especially fairs and bazaars of the port ... The traditional and bean cone, is the traditional dish, which is a conical tortilla roasted and stuffed with refried beans and cotija cheese.
This version of Boules is unique and rescue this dish so little is known outside the harbor.
Well done.
Regards
Diego Hernandez.
