The slow downward spiral into oblivion continues for BBV. Food cost control appears to have erased any sense of culinary pride that once resided here. The latest victim appears to be the menu staple Paella. The recipe has fallen victim to the food cost axe. Whole shrimp has disappeared in favor of mysterious "rock shrimp". Once tender, moist chunks of chicken are now dried scraps of overcooked sliced filets. Asparagus spears are gone, replaced by a few lonely florets of broccoli. Not exactly a Spanish staple. Sorry, but this dish is barley even a shadow of its former self and isn't worth a special trip any more. Very sad.
