I love this book, new from National Geographic: Food Journeys of a Lifetime: 500 Extraordinary Places to Eat Around the Globe. Epicurean Ways gets a mention in it, a fact which pleases me as well.

Barcelona Walking Tour
Oh my, the food! The first morning we arrived dropped off our bags and headed to Boqueria Market, a feast for the eyes and soul. Snacked at both El Quim and Bar Pinotxo, “pointing” as you suggested and were not disappointed. George introduced us to Sagardi for tapas, some of my favorites: empanadillas de champiñones, gambas pil-pil, chorizo, “Gildas,” anchoas de cantabria. We also loved the Iberian acorn ham that literally melted in your mouth. The absolute best however, the simple patatas bravas at Bar Tomas in Sarrià.

Gourmet San Sebastián
San Sebastian’s charm and having eaten at Etxebarri that day definitely made a positive impression. Everything was wonderful and perfect. Gabriella was a delight, generous, and so well connected. Thank you so much for such a fantastic trip. We could not have done it without you and Gabriella, and everyone else involved with the tour.

George was wonderful! His knowledge of history, culture and food was extraordinary and we really tried to soak it all in. He did an excellent tour particularly since we wanted something more “unstructured” and perhaps a bit off the normal sightseeing path.
