Into the culture... 

Tapas bar recommendation: Tommy Mel's

If you feel a little homesick you should try this American diner on  Calle Rico Cejudo, just in front of El Corte Inglés de Nervión.

 

Spanish Recipe of the day: Pan con Tomate

Tomato Bread is simply toasted bread rubbed with fresh garlic and ripe tomato, then drizzled with olive oil and a bit of salt. It can be eaten by itself, but is often topped with cheese, ham or sausage. 

Ingredients: 

•Rustic-Style Bread

•2 Large, Round, Ripe Tomatoes

•2 Large Cloves of Garlic 

•Extra Virgin Olive Oil
•Salt to Taste

 

Optional: If you wish, add thinly sliced Spanish cheese, chorizo or ham.
It is best to use a rustic-style bread, that is solid and dense and a bit wider than the standard, narrow baguette. Instead of a baguette, you may use a batard.
First, if using a baguette, cut pieces about 4-5 inches long. Then, slice the pieces horizontally, as you would when making a sub sandwich. If you are using a rounder, wider type of bread, slice off one “end” piece, which will have lots of crust and set aside for another use. Then slice the rest of the loaf into pieces about ¾ inch thick.

  

That´s all folks! Have a great weekend!
