| España 2019 |
Southern Spain felt so freakishly familiar--the red roofs, the dry weather, the palm trees, the Spanish speaking populace--it was Southern California if you can get wine for 3 Euros that is.
We did a quick 5 day trip of Mardrid-Seville-Granada. While we expected Granada to be cultural and quaint and Seville a touristy friendly city, it was really the opposite.
If you're making a trip to Andalusia I'd highly recommend stops at these places:
- For the best frozen yogurt break in Madrid, stop by Rocambolesc -- founded by the pastry chef Jordi Roca, who was featured on Chef's Table: Pastry
- For a pleasent drinking experience try Pinkoko Bar in Puerta del Sol
- In Seville - the Alcazar is a must go, especially the outdoor gardens where you kind find peacocks roaming around.
- El Pinton in Seville, where we had a life changing mushroom dish. Also has a delightful interior featured in so many design blogs.
- In Granada -- one of the gelato places in the main part of town.
- The Alhambra, of course. Book an educational tour.
