Black bread and delicious olives in the foreground, with that lovely tuna tomato inside cooked egg white concoction....a dish to which diners are "invited," as the menu notes.

ROUND TINS OF PATE: TUNA AND MACKEREL....these are much less pricey than the conservas of pure fish, and I think they make great gifts, taking up minimal space in luggage.

My typical breakfast sampling....queso fresco eat the top (I brought home a nice chunk of this unpasteurized "fresh" cheese from Andalucia.....I'm savoring some every day but the piece is growing alarmingly small by now....surprisingly, it's still fine to eat....also on the plate are, sort of counterclockwise: Membrillo, a goat cheese, Manchego, picos (bread snacks) lomo Iberico, smoked trout (eat with buttered black bread) and in the center, jamon Iberico de Bellota....

I take my small slice of tortilla with a helping of migas, a signature dish of breadcrumbs and pork, from Extremadura. I made my own variation of migas at home, with garbanzos and chorizo....it's a favorite!!

I treated myself to the caviar, and dipped into the tin two or three times until the can was bare. With the cava so freely dispensed by the hotel.

Chipirones de Potera, from the Delta del Rio Ebro, in northeastern Spain. The salt flakes look like crystals and the shading conn these molluscs is worth of a painting.

Guisantes del Maresme; you can just spy the thinnest sheet of jamon Iberico laid over the vegetable. You can now see why these are called "green pearls."

A media ración of delectable canyuts from the Delta of the Ebro River, where fresh an salt waters mingle. Cousins to razor clams (navajas); these are smaller, more golden in color, and with a more intense flavor than the far more widely available navajas.
