My first evening here, as is traditional for me in Spain, was devoted to ham and wine.
I really just plunked myself down in a nice looking no-smoking place (and the rules are still blurry about smoking-no smoking) near my hotel in the old town (oh sure, I consulted eG, the guidebooks and my charming nicely-décolletaged hotel lady).
But I really went to Bukoi, in the Calle Nueva, one of 4 places run by the exuberant Berton boys, because they specialize in Basque stuff.
A “small” portion of their “Joselito” jamon which their web site calls “El mejor jamón del mundo,” was 15 € and they ring the bell once it’s sliced; with a few drops of wine I had a very nice reimmersion into Spain for 20.10 €.
