More proof that the trend of Spanish food is going strong comes in the form of hot new restaurant BOMBA at Martin No. 38.

Named after the Bomba rice used to make its paella, 70-seater restaurant BOMBA has taken over Graze at Martin No. 38 and threw open its doors just over two weeks ago.

There's a handful of paella to choose from such as langoustine, squid & prawn (from $40 for a small paella pan) and arroz negro, with squid, dry sherry, squid ink and black mushrooms cooked in fish stock (from $35 for a small paella pan), cooked up by chef Jean-Philippe Patruno who's had stints at estalishments like Barrafina Spanish Tapas Restaurant and Bar in London.

Also on the menu are tapas items including piquillo peppers stuffed with salt cod brandade ($14) and ibérico ham croquettas ($12), as well as charcoal-grilled dishes like chili- and honey-roasted quail with golden sultana quinoa ($22) and secreto ibérico with romesco sauce ($28).

If you're in need of some libation, there's a wine list (from $12/glass) dominated by Spanish offerings, as well as cocktails including white pear sangria ($15), Bomba punch (our pick; $12) and blood orange colada ($15) to choose from.
