Turned out I didnt have east Euro paprika, only Spanish pimenton – so think of this as cooked by Hungarians on holiday on the Costa del Sol :-) Half a kilo of pork mince. Zest of a lemon, Heaped teaspoon of pimenton...

, jamon, queso and carne enchilada. I was told that eventually, when they are more settled, they will also have a cemita de pata (pig’s feet, deboned) to offer. I requested a cemita de milanesa and got a great sandwich...

with luscious tomatoes. Salads, non thrilling. One with iceberg and fresh mozzerella, and mysteriously wooden tomatoes; another with frissee and cold tuna in a red pureed sauce. Salmon Ahumado was a main course plato del dia, and...

). bar espana (next to the real fabrica de tabacos) has a wonderful cold pork tapa. also, make sure to eat some good quality jamon serrano (it’s like proscuitto only better). another favorite tapa of mine is espinacas con...

and a filthy napkin-strewn floor, but this place trades on an authenticity it doesn’t offer. Sherry list is impressive, but where’s the orujo for the digestivo crowd? Casa Mono and Bar Jamón get it right. 4) Etats-Unis: Guide...

The only restaurant that would fit your criteria would be Urasawa. Costs average around $400-$450 per person, including alcohol. If they love authentic Spanish ham, then reserve a Jamon Jabugo Pata Negra ($1200 per leg), to be...
