The Spanish have definitely figured out how to eat- and drink too. And I love it! I cannot even begin to tell you how much I have enjoyed the tapas here. They are increíble. My favorite tapa that I tried yesterday was the cochinillo de asada at Don Cochinillo. I have never in my life had pork that amazing! They definitely know how to treat and cook their meat here! ¡Que rico!
Honestly, I don't think there is a tapa that I have tried and haven't liked here. Next time I go out for tapas, I want to get a little more adventurous. I want to try cow tongue again, because the bite I had was delicious. I love that they use every part of the animal here! In addition to la lengua, I want to try el pulpo, because I am not sure if I have ever tried octopus before. Also, Nicole got some shrimp with the head attached and she had to rip off the head and peel off the skin to get to the delicious meat, and I think I want to try that too! There is so much to try here and the quality of the food is incredible! The bite of chorizo that I had yesterday was also amazing and I will be ordering that too. Even though we went "tapa hopping" last night and I tried so much great food, I still feel like there is so much more food here that I haven't tasted I am so glad we are here 6 weeks.

With all the different tapas, we could probably go out for weeks trying something new each night and not eat the same thing twice! What's even better, each town/city/region has their own speciality. As you travel across Spain, keep exploring and blogging. You will want to remember all of it.
