Whenever I go to Spain I love to try new foods although, yes, we do eat Chinese, sometimes. We tend to eat out each day as we're on holiday there. (Could be that I have a brand new oven that I don't understand how to use as the instructions are in Spanish !)

I found this website & thought I'd share it with you. http://www.xmission.com/~dderhak/monte/edrink.htm 

It has lots of recipes to attempt yourselves.  Click on blue links.

Nah, stick to good old English food Janice.  Nothing like traditional kebabs, curries and pizzas is what I say.

Quite right..when in Spain etc ......l love going to tapas bars ..then point and try.

We have several locally where there are between 60 and 100 different tapas to choose from. l have my favourites but like to try anything new too.

They are great places to take visitors as you just order loads to go onto the table and everyone tries what they fancy. The children are usually the more adventurous.

There are also many cookery books available, in english, for you to try out at home BUT half the fun is being out and about.

There's meant to be a good tapas place not too far from us on the CB but whenever we've been for a MDD the tapas are all along the top of the bar (under covers) but so many people sit smoking on stools at the bar I wouldn't go near it. Smoke ugh, give me clean air please. We need to explore in June. Lucky you living over there  spiritofspain you don't have to cram so much into a certain time.
