SPAIN !













I arrive in A Coruna after spending the whole day at the airport in Paris due to an air traffic controllers strike. Missed my first flight and was lucky to catch the next flight 8 hrs later. Thanks to my savey travel agent. Missed a day in Barcelona but made it this lovely town on the northeast corner of Spain where seafood and tapas are the local currency.



Met by my good friends Pablo and Beatriz which happen to have a budding catering business right here in A Coruna.... That night first stop is Tabarena O Secreto where the Guinness World Record holder for the longest slice of Jamon is held by Senor Nico Jimenez. He 's long gone from here but this is where it happen nevertheless the jamon of varying kinds are excellent as is the tapas here . Bay scallops cooked with onion and jamon, mussels shucked and baked with bread crumbs ,paprika, olive oil ,garlic and onion among others all very delicsious. The Albarinos are equally as good and go great with all the seafood... Tomorrow more tapas are the agenda as is the seafood market
