A chance to drink loads of ‘orujo’ without having to explain yourself to anyone…?
I really love “polvorones”… I don’t know if you guys have tried to eat a few of them, without scrunching it up, and then try to say a tongue twister.
It is really funny, everything gets stuck in yout mouth;
So try to make a competition of that as we did. We couldn’t finish the competition, but we definetlly did laugh so much with it.
Have a wonderful Christmas…
Christmas dinner is the most familiar event in the year.
On this occasion we use to have appetizes (loin, ham, chorizo) , big dishes like stuffed meat (Lamb, veal and small pig called “Toston”) , as well as fish (sea beam and sole).

Christmas is a period of big meals and dinners, too much I should say…
In therms of drinks, wine -depending of region but mainly Rioja, Cava and Ribera Duero – are more popular.
We also like sweet desserts. There are huge variety, something typical of this season is Pan de Cadiz (Similar to Italian Panetone) and Chirstmas Trunk.
