Barsa Tapas and Lounge, a Spanish tapas restaurant on Upper King Street, has started serving up an affordable express lunch.

For just $10 you can choose among sandwiches, salads and combos, or go straight for the Fideau. Cooked in a small paella pan, Fideau is a Valencian-style baked pasta with onions, smoked tomato sauce and choice of protein. It's very paella-like with a carmelized crust on the bottom and perfectly cooked shrimp or other choice of protein on top. Rich but light enough for lunch, it's delicious.

Lunch includes food, soft drink or tea, tax and parking. Perfect.

Barsa is located at 630 King Street.
