Gastronomy day

My tummy feels nicely full! That is a measure of the success of this year’s Gastronomy Day at the Fiesta for San Joaquín.

First off we sampled the excellent tapas and beer at la “Tapeo en la calle”. We thought we were spoilt for choice there and then we moved onto the "Jornada Gastronómica".

The British contingent did us proud with some excellent examples of typical cuisine from the old country. As we turned the corner there was an array of different stews, arroces and pastas to tempt our palates. Round the next corner was the delicious suckling pig followed by traditional desserts of the region.

The best part of the day though was chatting to so many of our Spanish and British neighbours, sharing our thoughts about the food and generally putting the world to rights. They say that living in the sun makes you happy people. I would have to agree because we returned home muy contento. For more photos click here
