Madrid's? Stew?

In fact, this Villa restaurant in Madrid? The full name of this Villa restaurant in Madrid is "Stew". is actually the full name of this Villa restaurant in Madrid. Madrid Chickpea Stew? which is also known as "chowder". chowder. However, it does have a lot of ingredients: chicken breasts, chicken thighs, lean meat, pork rinds, big fat meat, sausage and chorizo. After all, lean meat alone isn't flavorful; it has to be greasy to be palatable. Pickled cucumbers, pickled peppers, and raw white onions are served as appetizers before the meal, and as toppings to complement the main course, which is sure to be greasy otherwise. On top of that, the store also gave away choked olives, seasoned with vinegar in addition to the usual olive oil. However, the appearance of this vinegar, although it looks darker in color, extremely similar to our common domestic balsamic vinegar or aged vinegar, but the taste is strong enough to smell a punchy white vinegar.

After the pre-dinner meal, it is the soup. We didn't know the ingredients of the stew, but the soup's rich flavor seemed to foreshadow the main course. The soup also added spaghetti, but it is a thinner one, much like the domestic? Longshu noodles? However, the dragon's whisker here is not long, a short one, a soup spoon can hold a lot, let's call it? Short-tailed Dragon's Whiskers Noodle Soup? Let's call it short-tailed dragon's whiskers noodle soup. When the main dish came up, only to realize the ingredients of the ingredients? The main dish is a heavy one. Half a kilogram of chicken breasts and thighs, half a kilogram of lean meat, half a kilogram of pork rinds and fat, half a kilogram of mud sausage and Spanish sausage, half a kilogram of stewed potatoes and carrots, a kilogram of Madrid chickpeas and Chinese cabbage, in addition to half a kilogram of bread to give away. That's not a portion for two people, I'm afraid it's enough for four. Not only that, there are also chocolate balls and chip-like cookies desserts given away after the meal, which are crispy and delicious.

Barcelona's? Sausage and ham?

What never occurred to me is that some of the dishes in Barcelona are somewhat similar to Szechuan cuisine, and thousands of miles away, the flavors of home seem to waft in. Just near the Plaza de Catalunya and City Hall restaurants are available, we chose a customer full of go in to taste.

The sausages here are also dark red from a distance, hanging in the center of the lobby. The hams, too, look inviting. Not only that, but at the bottom of each ham is an upside-down umbrella, which we thought was decorative at first, but then realized it had another purpose? That's to catch the dripping oil. However, compared to Sichuan sausages, the sausages here are salty and suitable for eating on bread, and although chili peppers are added, they are not that spicy. So, the savvy store also made sausage bread skewers, with toothpicks skewered, 1 euro a skewer, is also very hot.

The restaurant's menu also has roasted peppers and roasted vegetables, which we tried. The chili peppers were green, small, thick, and sprinkled with a large grain of coarse salt, which gave them a nice flavor, but not quite enough spice. Perhaps more so than for out-of-China natives like us, the average chili pepper would have been hard to satisfy. The roasted vegetables also tasted good, full of flavor and well-matched, with onions, tomatoes, eggplant, green peppers, red peppers, and potatoes all being top-notch choices. But compared to the 1 yuan per skewer barbecue you get on the street in Chengdu, a 5-skewer portion here costs 10 euros, which is the equivalent of 80 yuan, or about 16 times as much as at home. Even so, we gave the elderly waiter enough to spend, and he was all smiles and thanks.

Madrid's? Doughnut soy milk?

? You can still get fritters in Madrid? It's unbelievable.? If you ask a local Chinese person, he will probably give this answer. But that's just the way it is, there are fritters in Madrid, but the local Spanish way of making them.

In fact, before arriving in Madrid, we found out about this doughnut store in the city center from our guide, but we didn't care about it at first and went straight to the next attraction. Still, the smell of doughnuts reached our noses, as if a flavor from a distant homeland. So we turned back. Although it was just after noon and our stomach space was really limited, we decided to order one to try. The old store, St. Kings Chocolate, is located in the alley behind St. Kings Church. It's very unassuming, but it's been featured in Lonely Planet and many other classic guides. It's not a big store, but there are two floors. The lower level is the basement, and around the entrance hangs records of many celebrities who have come to the store, many of which are yellowed. Not only that, there are extra seats at the entrance, the standard configuration is two chairs and a coffee table, the only two seats with sunlight have long been occupied.

A set meal, which includes six doughnuts and a cup of hot chocolate, is not expensive. After you pay the bill, a waiter will bring the doughnuts dipped in hot chocolate to the seat of your choice. The doughnuts here are not very long, about 30 centimeters, some domestic even up to 50 centimeters, solid, and the body is relatively small, only one-third of the domestic, but the flavor is very fragrant, with a strong hot chocolate, it is very sweet. However, I thought it was going to be slightly less than the national doughnut with soy milk, after all, soy milk is light, and the two are often eaten together without getting tired. And this, if you eat more will be a little tired. Sure enough, a few guests around us didn't finish it. Perhaps it was fate that the next morning the hotel we were staying at offered soy milk for breakfast? Surprisingly, it tasted just like soy milk, but unfortunately it was cold.

Mallorca's? Large pancakes?

Spain's? Papas? (PAPAS) has a long reputation, the impression of South America seems to have PAPAS, I do not know from the Americas into Spain, or from Spain into the Americas? To put it plainly, papas is a kind of big cake with vegetables. In Italy, we call it? Pisa? In China, especially in the Northeast, we call them scallion pancakes or egg pancakes. In fact, the definition of the pie determines that they **** the same main ingredient, are based on the pasta; and before the scallion, egg are modifiers, counted as accessories. The side ingredients of Pappas are different from pizza, which is meat-based, such as beef, pork, and even developed seafood and so on. Our first taste of Pappas was in the small town of Sorrell, Mallorca, when it was noon, the Spanish restaurants are not open, the occasional two only provide cold bread, which is used to eating at noon in the country how can we face? So, not willing to hunger, we chose Papas. Although it was already made, like? Cold cuts? but the flavor of the pappas was still delicious with the shredded red peppers on top. The red peppers seemed to have been roasted and had become soft and delicate, with just the right amount of salt flavor, and the bread that made the base was good enough to fill the stomach.

Also, the pappas are inexpensive, bought and sold in pieces, two pappas are about half a kilogram and cost 5 euros, a good price. The second time I tasted pappas was in Parma, where they were made into skewers, small pieces of toasted bread with shrimp, red sausage, eel, olives, and so on, for 1 euro a skewer, which is also very good.
