We stumbled upon this gem of a market in Spain. I may have mentioned earlier how obsessed the Spaniards are with ham. This market is a monument to that. It felt very much like a place a place a weird host from one of the food shows would go to, and it was awesome.
Even before we walked in, there was intrigue. Remember this picture:
The market itself is about 45 booths that have every kind of food you would want to eat, and every kind of booze you'd want to drink. Since the Euro means even less to me than the pound, we went hog...literally. Here are some photos of the market and the food therein
