The Gilda is a bite that’s as interesting in taste as it is in origin. The popular pintxo, which means “spike” in the Basque language, is a Spanish snack that’s served on — you guessed it — a cocktail spike. It’s named for the “spicy” femme fatale of the 1946 film Gilda, who was played by Spanish-descended Rita Hayworth. Lola’s tuna Gilda is every bit as enticing as that sounds. The delicately marinated, zingy tuna is perfectly paired with pickled peppers, making it a bold, saucy way to wake up your tastebuds for a meal. Sadly, the Gilda was recently removed from Lola’s menu, but here’s hoping they bring it back.
