Food and Drink in Spain






Food and drink is wonderful in Spain. If it wouldn’t label me an alcoholic, I would drink sangria all day every day. One can always find Serrano ham and manchego cheese, although seeing the Serrano ham with the hoof sticking out next to the sliced pieces makes it not as appetizing. I had shellfish paella for the first time. At dinner one night the next table ordered salted cod. It is quite a presentation so I had to act like a tourist and take a picture. The waiter chips away at a mound of salt to reveal a whole fish underneath.

WOW! Manchego! I love Manchego...and Serrano ham, hoof or no hoof, is a fine thing, too. Am jealous and slightly hungry. : )
