We managed to avoid having meals in restaurants. We preferred tapas bar i.e. we ordered small bits and pieces of many things and enjoy every one of them. This is not the proper way as we quickly understood when the waiter started to walk away after we picked 4 tapas while we wanted a couple more. The trick is not to order them altogether but rather one at a time, preferably with another glass of wine.
We loved the ham croquettes: croquetas de jamon. That’s clearly our all time winner.
We love Spanish ham, as such, on a toast, in a croquette, on top of eggs… it doesn’t matter how it’s served, we ate it with great pleasure.
Despite Tortilla doesn’t come with ham, we enjoyed it quite a lot as well. We preferred it warm but one can eat it cold as well.
Only negative is that food in Spain is pretty greasy. Most things are fried one way or another. That’s probably what makes them so good.
I know one thing for sure. After 5 days in Spain it will take me 2 weeks of hard exercise to eliminate the damage. In my defense, I just can’t resist to their croquetas de jamon.
