Wow.

Looks a bit lonely on that plate, though. :)

Yeah. Hehe. It's because you can pick whatever you want to eat off the plates of food on the counter, so I picked that one piece of ham and bread and placed it on my plate to shoot a photograph, before we inhaled it.

Probably the most delicious shellfish I've ever tasted. Navajas a la plancha <Grilled razor clams> in Madrid.

Fresh and simply prepared with garlic, salt, parsley, and olive oil. Friekin' delicious!

That's because I ate them all. :beaten:


Truth be told I've only eaten razor clams once prior to Madrid....at the Lazy Ox Canteen in Little Tokyo. Although good, the ones I had in Madrid were way better. :)

The razor clams were absolutely fantastic...but by no means the only thing we ate at that tapas bar, beastie. The clams were just the favorite dish!

Tu_triky, Welcome back!! Sounds like you had a wonderful time!!

All of the pics of food you posted looks super delicious, especially the razor clams (I love seafood!). The chorizo sausages looked very inviting!! How were they?

Thank you for your warm welcome, Sengo. :)

The food was absolutely incredible. The Chorizo sausages were, as they appear, very delicious. Spicy, unctuous, and too addictive for any foodie :) I'd live off them if they were available to me on the daily....probably not a good thing we can agree!

Hehe. I purchased a new Canon digital point & shoot camera before my vacation. :)
It's much better & faster than using the cellphone camera.

I just put my eyeball really close to the food and blink.
