LA CENA DEL día de la Navidad se dedicó con Judy; y amigos Tynan y Elena, y algunos de sus familiares. Fuimos a Casa Castellana y fue excepcional. Yo le expliqué al camarero que la única razón por la que pedí el postre fue porque necesitaba una foto. Se ofreció a devolver el postre a la cocina después de que yo hice la foto. Muy amable. Pero, ¡oops! Me olvidé y me lo comí. Qué lástima.

DeleteWe saw it delivered to another table and I thought, "I really need a picture of that!"
Now I'm hungry for dinner and it's just 8AM!
ReplyDeleteBob:
DeleteI could go back there again today.
I suppose it's going to be hard for me to find a Milhoja in america
ReplyDeleteAdam:
DeleteAs a French pastry, it's called Mille-feuille. I'm sure you can find it in the United States, but I don't know what they might call it in English. (It means "a thousand leaves," because of the layers. The one I had is absolutely nothing like any traditional one I've seen. But I'm not complaining.
All very Yummy! Have a great Day!
ReplyDeleteTravel:
DeleteHope you're enjoying the holiday.
Presentation....100%!!
ReplyDeletePhotos aren't bad either!!
Jim:
DeleteThey do a beautiful job there. I work with what I've got.
And that last photo is the BEST!
ReplyDeleteDebra:
DeleteThanks! I was pleased with that. Jerry thought my spoon had fallen off the slate.
Your altruism is touching.... suspect but touching none the less.
ReplyDeleteWillym:
DeleteI do it all for you. As that idiot in the White House says, "Beleeb me."
Wow!
ReplyDeleteJudy:
DeleteI know! You're marveling at the fact that I ordered that dessert simply to share a photo with you.
I understand completely how desserts are so captivating much like SG & E !!!
ReplyDeleteRon:
DeleteThe Goddess can always make the Saint smile.
Yes it does look like an exceptional meal indeed. Love Spain for the quality of its restaurants.
ReplyDeleteLaurent:
DeleteWe have so many options for dining out in this town.
The photo of SG and the Goddess is enchanting; so much love pouring out. And you got your just desserts!
ReplyDeleteWilma:
DeleteWe are so lucky to have Tynan and Elena and their family in our lives. Grateful every time I see them... and even when I don't.
great food
ReplyDeleteGosia:
DeleteI don't know why we don't go there more often.
You had me until the eels - I would have run screaming from the table lol. Merry Christmas to you and Gerry my friend!
ReplyDeleteCheapchick:
DeleteThose are processed fish made to look like baby eels, because baby eels were so over-fished that they now cost a gazillion dollars a pound (maybe a little less). That was Elena's. But Judy loved it and wants more. Jerry and I had gula once in Sevilla when we first arrived in Spain. Jerry wouldn't even taste it. I did and found it to taste actually very good. HOWEVER, I couldn't get past the sensation of having a mouthful of worms. No more for me, thanks! Wishing you a wonderful 12 days and a very happy new year!
The food always looks wonderful. I'd be big as a house if I ate so well.
ReplyDeleteStephen:
DeleteI've managed to not even grow to micro-house size.
How you intrigue us with food!
ReplyDeleteFrank:
DeleteStrange for someone (me) who has a panic attack when someone shares a recipe.
