Malaga Food Market

 

Did a market tour before we started our cooking class

The markets are in the old part of the city in a Moreish building from the 14th century

 

 

 

Loving the Spanish Ham's "Gamon" pickup up some to go with some olives and a drink on the deck. 

 

 

 

 

Spicy olives yum

It was not one of my most favourite place, but we can't love ever place we go too. 

It is the 12 km straight that separates Spain and Africa and the  meeting place of the Atlantic and the Mediterranean Oceans 

Huelva in Spain

Today we have done a sherry tasting day in Spain.
The town of Huelva pronanced with a "W" ....the names here in Spain are doing my head in, just a little bit!!
So thats why the taxi man could takes us back to the ship ...my proncnation and appraenty I sound too Australian!! anyway safe on board again...

The building here are very ornate and the tile farsard are matalic so they sparkle and shine in the sun

.

We started with a super dry sherry that went so well with the olives.

the 2nd was still dry and was darher in colour and was pared with a egg dish with the sweetest leeks and smoked ram

For our mains we had the pigs head it was so tender with a paprica gravy with a slightly sweeter sherry and was a great combination.

To finish we had a chocklet overdose and that was with a pedro Ximenez

So that will cost us several wobbly laps of the ships deck this afternoon.

and to top it off we were serenaded as we ate

Goodbye Lisbon

My new taste sensation ... Lupin beans in brine
