Black ham and bars

A world wind of southern Spain and Madrid in 6 days
6 friends, great wine and a grand finish at the oldest documented restaurant in the world!!!
We started on the southern coast in a kiteboarding town called Tarifa - Hotel Hurricane was one of my best meals of the trip - definitely the best dry sherry finished the meal.
You know how you get into your hotel the first night of your trip andnyou are too tired and lazy to venture out? I used to be jaded on hotel dinning experience but after opening my own hotel restaurant -Dauphin Grille at the Berkely Hotel in Asbury Park I have to keep an open mind.
Well I must say that our first meal at The Hurricane Hotel was by far top 3 of the trip. The front desk staff was kind enough to lead us to our other top choices for the south coast. Ask them about the hotel on top of the hill - right above the sand dunes El Tesoro. No chance of finding this without there help. Truly a memory.....
Next night for your second dinner venture into the old part of Tarifa and head to El Curro - oh my God.... Stand up tapas bars - lot's of pig and port!!!! YIPPY
Will the real black Iberian Ham please stand up!!!!
the little white town on top of the hill about 45 minutes east of tariff Frontera is definitely worth a day trip
Catch to best best visual of my memory - cows under huge/gigantic windmills as far as the eye can see until you come upon the fields of solar power. What is wrong with America?!
Next day do the rolling surf and gambas de ajilo at the lazy coastal town of El Palmar - take a surf - have lunch and be lazy!!!
If you want the total private experience in an artsy cabina by the see - travel a bit east along the coast and keep right at the fork by the gas station - you will arrive in a little town up the road - hang a right and head to the sea
Adios for now
More coming soon
