I stopped in at A&H Seafood in Bethesda on Sat. for some chorizo and ended up walking out with much more (you all know how that is!). But, I especially wanted those of you who are interested that they have some beautifully fresh...

Very much liked this Puerto Rican place on the corner of Lincoln and 4th in San Rafael. Highlights were the tostones and the sweet plantains. Tostones were unripe green plantains, smooshed into a patty, fried, and doused with...

I’d love to go up to Harbor City to La Espanola but I’m just running out of time. Are there any Spanish markets in OC that have great Spanish chorizos, paprikas, charcuterie, Spanish olive oils, etc.? I’m having...

potato and chorizo - great as a hash, or in a soft taco cut up and cook the chorizo in a frying pan with a bunch of onions — when it’s almost done, add the cut up potato which you mash up a little and brown nicely in...

2 friends and I had dinner at Monsieur Marcel last night. It was superb! They gave complimentary stuffed and plain olives and an assortment of breads and crackers before dinner. The following items were ordered: Croque Monsieur...

I really like this place. Casual: yes, Divey: yes, more like a bar: yes Service was perfectly fine. I recommend the camarones andalucia and the chorizo (both very tasty). They also give you free french bread grilled with olive oil...

The fried goat cheese with honey is great. I also love the bacon wrapped dates and olives, as well as the chorizo wrapped shrimp.

1/4 cup green olives Cut a slit in the meat and insert the chorizo. Place all ingredients in a crock pot, potatoes and green olives on top. Add a little water, salt & pepper to taste. Set crock pot to low, cook while at work or...

1). The typical Portugese appetizers of chorizo, cheese, olives, and bread (photo 2) are on the table when you arrive. If you don’t want these, ask for them to be taken away; otherwise you will be charged even if you don’t eat...
