Sample Spanish Food.
Of course, you go to Spain for the sites and history, but Oh Mio Dio, that Spanish cuisine.
From the northern provinces, with influences from Europe, to the south with its Mediterranian “twist,” the cuisine is magnífico.
And the islands have their spin on several dishes.
Come, let’s have a taste of everything Spain has to offer, wine, beer, and Spanish food.

Drinking It ALL In
The Spanish have been preparing food and drink for thousands of years. I think they have it right by now. When you visit a destination, you need to see, smell and taste it for true immersion. You can find Chinese or American food, but is that really why you came here?
See the destination. Explore its unique places. Stop and just listen to life going on all around you. Listen to local music.
Learn about their traditions and beliefs. What is different about them? What do you share in common?

But don’t stop there. For a true immersion, you have to taste the destination. That means the food at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. What do they eat for snacks? And do you really want to skip dessert?
And you need to drink the local beverages. Does their coffee, tea, or milk taste different?
Maybe you’re not a wine or beer drinker. But try a sip. When are you coming back to get another chance?
It probably will not kill you, (outside of allergies), and Spanish food just might make your life a little richer.
