the little things…

tapas bar Today I can barely wait until we can go eat tapas. Yesterday Hedda and I stumbled across my best tapas experience, yet. Those tasty little bites called tapas or pinchos are served all day, even though traditionally they are supposed to be enjoyed between 7-9PM. The dishes are pre-made and sit along the bar and are meant to be a snack before dinner.

So far among my favorite tapas is the cured ham, especially if it is Iberico ham. I have also enjoyed the meatballs with a zesty tomato sauce, and salted cod with onions, green and red peppers in vinegar & olive oil. Of course the fried potatoes are also good, especially when served with garlic mayonaise.

Just so long as they promise to be tasty, I will go to another tapas bar tonight.

    NICE!! I am so enjoying our trip together. The food and sights are fabulous. Some people think that vacationing in your mind with others who are “in the real” can’t be as fulfilling. I say bullshit. Let’s get some sports in today.

    Can you set up some “what’s the upcoming schedule” info so I know what clothes to imagine for the next leg?
