Here are a few highlights:
- Pastries for breakfast every day*
- Ice cream almost every day (it was vacation afterall!)
- Pa amb tomaquet* (no idea how to spell... basically bread slathered with oil, salt, tomato, and sometimes garlic)
- Chorizo cooked in cider
- Creamy artichoke soup
- Simple potato salad - potatoes, hard boiled eggs, tomatoes, onion?, garlic?, lots of olive oil
- Fried everything* (fish, vegetables, croquetas de jamon y queso)
- Shrimp and bacon "quiche" (definately not quiche, but that's what they called it... more like a souffle or frittata? Slathered in a mayonnaise sauce, sounds gross, but DELICIOUS!)
- Mushrooms stuffed with bolognese-type meat sauce & zuchinni, topped with cheese
- Tortillas (Spanish omelets)
- Churros* con chocolate (only when fresh though!)
- Some kind of special spanish region stew - beef (like brisket?), potatoes, kale, white beans, and broth. So simple, but SO flavorful!
- Grilled (on a griddle, not a grill) mushrooms, the weird flat kind (called setas in spanish)
- Roasted artichoke hearts, topped with crunchy onion pieces and ample olive oil
- WONDERFUL WINES!!
- Cured hams (serrano, iberico, etc) and meats (varieties of morcilla and chorizo)
- Lots of awesome cheeses
- Good looking little sandwiches and tapas with mystery cheeses and meats
- Purposely undercooked scrambled eggs served over super fried and salty french fries
*I couldn't survive on pregnancy restrictions AND gluten free diet, so I ate a lot of gluten. I did my best to have only "fresh" things (no packaged and processed items).
