Toro Boston

No-bull tapas: everything from simple plates of paella and pimentos de piquillo rellenos de txangurro (crabmeat-stuffed peppers) to mejillones (dry-roasted mussels with sea salt, olive oil, and sweet butter) and sepia a la plancha (cuttlefish with chickpeas, Swiss chard, and grilled bread).
