Sunny, Sunny Spain

So, here we are in Alicante, Spain. Currently we're enjoying siesta after a long, late lunch. There's something to be said for eating nearly your own weight in olive oil. How are these people not all giant butter balls.

But, before the food porn, we need to show some of the good stuff....





See? We actually did something today, and we're not even finished! But yes, I know what you're here for. Without furtho ado, our food porn.




In Spain you can get what they call ¨Menu del dia,¨ the menu of the day. It consists of a three course meal that costs anywhere from €5-€20. Here's what we had today:


First course: Corinne, salad of tomatos drenched in olive oil with tuna. Sverre, a pastry with salmon.





Second course, mushroom risotto and spaghetti primavera:





Dessert: Fruit salad and vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce. (Obviously, Sverre did a better job of picking the yummy stuff, although that risotto was delicious!)





Now it's time to leave the hotel for round two.... Buenos dias, everyone
