]]> If you’re looking to sample cheeses all around the world, drink wine with a view, and taste the fruits of the world, then you’ve come to the right place! We have compiled a short list of some of the best places to enjoy wine and charcuterie all around the world, so you can skip the research and jump right on a flight.

Tuscany, Italy

Grape vineyards sprawl in lavish fields across northern Italy, making it the optimal place to drink wine , and eat cheese! There are many delicious wineries to visit that also have restaurants and charcuterie to enjoy! We recommend Cantina Tera di Seta for a delicious culinary and wine tasting experience. However, you truly cannot go wrong with any winery you visit as they are almost all exceptional!

Malaga, Spain

Southern Spain has some beautiful landscapes and views making it an incredible place to sip Sangria Wine on the beach, or sample cheese and meat plates at many of the local eateries. We recommend Bodega Garcia Hidalgo in Malaga for a beautiful experience.

Bordeaux, France

Bordeaux, France is the quintessential wine tasting experience, offering some of the world’s finest wine varieties and charcuterie. We recommend Château Balestard La Tonnelle for some of the riches and well bodied wines in the region, and enahnce the experience with some brie, pears, and figs!

]]> Spain does food incredibly well – so well, in fact, that sometimes its sweet offerings can get overlooked in favor of its savory. Whether you’re going to Spain, have a favorite Spanish restaurant in your town, or are seeking culinary inspiration at home, here are three Spanish desserts to try.

Spanish Flan

Served across the country, Spanish flan is deceptively simple. A gorgeous mix of sugar, milk and eggs, flan is creamy, sweet and decadent, making it the dessert of choice in cafes and restaurants across Spain. To eat it like a local, order it with a glass of sweet sherry on the side.

Almond Cake

Chefs in Spain really know how to make the most of almonds. Whilst they are found in several savory dishes, they really shine in this moist, rich cake. It’s naturally gluten free, a bonus for those looking for gluten free dessert options. With its origins in Northern Spain, traditionally the cake is dusted with icing sugar, with a striking cross symbol left plain in the center of the cake. Enjoy with an espresso in the morning, or a glass of wine at night.

Crema Catalana

With its origins in Catalonia, this lovely, sweet treat is similar to a crème brûlée. The main ingredients are similar to a Spanish flan, with the addition of cinnamon, and the Crema Catalana is browned on top, giving it a lovely texture. Eat this as a lunchtime dessert, before enjoying a relaxing afternoon lying on a beach or sauntering around the streets of a Spanish town.

]]> One of the world’s great unknown gastronomic paradises is the southwest European country of Spain. While it doesn’t have the international profile of other countries like Italy or Japan, the number of must-sample dishes that come from Spain is enormous.

Spaniards like dessert and have a huge sweet tooth, meaning that you will find plenty of desserts that you have to try either at Spanish restaurants or in the country itself. Here are three that you cannot miss.

Arroz con Leche

This rice-based dessert combines a sweet, milky sauce that is topped with cinnamon and served cold as a classic option for those with a sweet tooth. This dessert has also become popular in other countries that were once part of the Spanish Empire.

Chocolate con Churros

Churros are good, but have you ever tried them dipped in hot chocolate sauce? That is exactly what many Spaniards, especially those who live in Madrid, choose as a tasty, sweet breakfast or afternoon snack.

Turrón

Spaniards especially love indulging in sweet treats at Christmas Time, and turrón is the most beloved of their sweets and snacks. Made traditionally with almond and honey as its main ingredients, you can also find other varieties like chocolate turrón.

]]> You have probably heard of huevos rancheros before, but what about a similar-sounding dish called huevos rotos? The former is a Mexican favorite that has become a brunch favorite throughout the world, but what about the latter?

Huevos rotos are a delicacy from Spain that create an absolutely delicious breakfast or lunch out of some potatoes, a couple of fried eggs, and cured ham.

The first thing that you will notice about a plate of huevos rotos is the mountain of fried potatoes that serves as the base of the dish. Typically, you will find either sliced potatoes or chunks of potatoes that are fried in olive oil as a tasty, starchy base.

So, what comes next?

The typical plate of huevos rotos will then contain a couple of fried eggs on top of the potatoes. Done over-easy, when cut, the yolks spill out and soak the potatoes in a juicy flavor explosion that you’ll have to taste to believe.

The final piece of the huevos rotos puzzle? A topping of pieces of Spanish jamon, a cured ham product that adds a meaty, salty cherry on top to this down-home, delightful delicacy.

Would you try huevos rotos?

If you are looking for a new wine variety to pick up the next time you head to the store to buy wine, why not consider these three unique and delicious Spanish wines?

Tempranillo

Tempranillo is the star red grape of Spain, being the most-cultivated variety in the acclaimed Spanish region of La Rioja. Full-bodied, yet not overwhelming with its tannins or overly dry, this red wine is great both young and aged, and can be paired with a vast variety of foods. 

Albariño

Do you love white wine and are looking to expand your tastebuds? Albariño is the star white grape of the Rias Baixas production region, which makes some of the country’s best whites. This grape produces dry, light, and citrusy wines that pair fantastically with seafood dishes.

Cava

Are you a fan of the bubbly? Cava is Spain’s equivalent to France’s Champagne or Italy’s prosecco, a sparkling white wine which is just as fun to drink as it is to mix with fruit juices and other ingredients to make wine cocktails.

Do you know where olive oil comes from? While it might be a common thing to find in kitchens throughout the world, most of us aren’t aware of the places that produce the olive oil that we end up using. Here are the world’s biggest producers.

Spain

Spain is the world’s leading olive oil producer, making over a million tons of the gold stuff on a yearly basis. Spain is lucky enough to have a large landmass with a lot of territory that is perfectly suited for the cultivation of olive trees.

Italy

Another Mediterranean nation comes in at number two on the list, with Italy producing over 500,000 tons annually. Olive oil has long been a staple of Italian cooking, forming the basis of many a pasta sauce and dip.

Greece

Surprise, surprise! Another Mediterranean country, Greece, is #3 on the list despite possessing a relatively small land area. Greece is unique in that nearly all of the country’s landmass and climate is suitable for olive oil production, which is why it gets so much out of its relatively small size.

O Beronia Gran Reserva, safra 2009, é um belíssimo tinto da região de 🇪🇸Rioja 🇪🇸 produzido pela Bodegas Beronia/Gonzáles Byass e composto pelas castas 🍇Graciano e 🍇Tempranillo. De cor vermelha brilhante com tons ocres e castanhos, toma o olfato com notas de frutas negras maduras, especiarias (cravo, noz moscada e alcaçuz), além de nuances de tabaco, couro e tostado. Na boca é elegante e potente, com taninos macios, agradável frescor, e final longo e persistente. Vai muito bem com carnes vermelhas e massas com molhos escuros. #vinho #vinhotinto #wine #redwine #winepics #winepic #winelover #winelovers #winetime #winebloggers #wineoclock #vinhosdanossavida #espanha #espana #bodegasberonia #vinhoespanhol #rioja #tempranillo #gracioano #spanishwine

El Jardín de Lucía es de Eulogio Pomares de Bodegas Zárate en Rías Baixas. Es puro albariño de color oro pálido límpido y brillante. En nariz tiene aromas de flores blancas e intensas notas de cítricos como la lima verde y la piel de limón, con delicados recuerdos de hierbas aromáticas como el hinojo y la menta. En boca tiene una textura envolvente y sedosa, recorre el paladar vivo y fresco con una armonía perfecta. Deja un recuerdo muy placentero y persistente marcado por notas ligeramente salinas y de caramelo de limón al final del paladar. Un vino refrescante y seductor que será el compañero ideal de pescados ahumados, platos de pasta, arroces, marisco fresco y crustáceos. Tómate una copita en casa hasta que podamos salir a disfrutarlo fuera😜😜 Lo descubrimos en @lagmanrestaurant , un local de ambiente muy cuidado, música ambiental perfecta que hace que te sientas muy a gusto mientras disfrutas de unos platos de 10!! Os lo recomiendo 👍🏼👍🏼 #vinoblanco #eljardindelucia #bodegaszarate #albariño #foodiebcn #foodiesbcn #instawine #lagmanrestaurant #thetasteofaspanishlady #winetime #winelover #devinos #

Hablemos de las bondades del aceite de oliva. Uno de los aceites más comunes, disponible en casi todos los hogares en Chile, tiene muchísimas propiedades regeneradoras, hidratantes y suavizantes. Seguramente cuando te fuiste de compras para la cuarentena, lo que menos te preocupaba era el cabello, ya que no es una prioridad en esos momentos. Pero seguramente tienes aceite de oliva en tu casa. Mezclar una cucharada de aceite de oliva con dos cucharadas de mascarilla capilar o en ultimo caso, acondicionador. Lavar el cabello con shampoo, aplicar la mezcla de medio a puntas, peineteando hacia el crecimiento y masajeando el cuero cabelludo con las yemas de los dedos. Puedes potenciar el efecto con una gorra térmica o bien plastico film alrededor de la cabeza. Más tiempo queda en el cabello, más hermoso, sedoso y brillante quedará tu cabello. Eso es un maravilloso ritual de belleza , para que estés en contacto contigo mism@, en esos dias que estamos obrigad@s a estar en casa, mejor nos sentiremos si nos cuidamos . #santacharita #tipsdebelleza #cabellosano #cabellobonito #aceitedeoliva

]]> Madrid is one of the hottest cities in all of Europe. This buzzing capital city has a culture, art, and night scene that is absolutely to die for. Foodies that visit Madrid will also find themselves in love with all of the fantastic restaurants and food spots in this global alpha city.

Here are some food markets that you absolutely must visit the next time you find yourself in the Spanish capital.

Mercado de San Miguel

If you’re looking to go out for tapas, this might be the best place to go in the whole city. Housed in a beautiful early 20th-century space with iron and huge glass windows, you’ll find tapas from all of Spain’s unique regions featured in this market, located in the heart of Madrid.

Mercado de San Fernando

This market might not be as well-known or cited in city guidebooks, but the Lavapies neighborhood which houses it as well as the market itself is quirky and fun. Here, you’ll find a fun night scene with everything from beer bars to cocktail spots as well as plenty of tasty treats during the daytime.

Mercado de San Anton

In Madrid’s LGBT hotspot of Chueca, you’ll find the Mercado de San Anton, a three-level gastronomic behemoth that was re-designed and reopened in 2009 to great fanfare. You’ll find everything from fresh produce to fusion dining concepts here, all under one roof.

Do you know where olive oil comes from? While it might be a common thing to find in kitchens throughout the world, most of us aren’t aware of the places that produce the olive oil that we end up using. Here are the world’s biggest producers.

Spain

Spain is the world’s leading olive oil producer, making over a million tons of the gold stuff on a yearly basis. Spain is lucky enough to have a large landmass with a lot of territory that is perfectly suited for the cultivation of olive trees.

Italy

Another Mediterranean nation comes in at number two on the list, with Italy producing over 500,000 tons annually. Olive oil has long been a staple of Italian cooking, forming the basis of many a pasta sauce and dip.

Greece

Surprise, surprise! Another Mediterranean country, Greece, is #3 on the list despite possessing a relatively small land area. Greece is unique in that nearly all of the country’s landmass and climate is suitable for olive oil production, which is why it gets so much out of its relatively small size.

]]> While other European countries such as France and Italy might have a little more clout on the wine scene than Spain, it would be a huge mistake to ignore all of the delicious options that this southwestern European country offers up.

If you are looking for a new wine variety to pick up the next time you head to the store to buy wine, why not consider these three unique and delicious Spanish wines?

Tempranillo

Tempranillo is the star red grape of Spain, being the most-cultivated variety in the acclaimed Spanish region of La Rioja. Full-bodied, yet not overwhelming with its tannins or overly dry, this red wine is great both young and aged, and can be paired with a vast variety of foods.

O Beronia Gran Reserva, safra 2009, é um belíssimo tinto da região de 🇪🇸Rioja 🇪🇸 produzido pela Bodegas Beronia/Gonzáles Byass e composto pelas castas 🍇Graciano e 🍇Tempranillo. De cor vermelha brilhante com tons ocres e castanhos, toma o olfato com notas de frutas negras maduras, especiarias (cravo, noz moscada e alcaçuz), além de nuances de tabaco, couro e tostado. Na boca é elegante e potente, com taninos macios, agradável frescor, e final longo e persistente. Vai muito bem com carnes vermelhas e massas com molhos escuros. #vinho #vinhotinto #wine #redwine #winepics #winepic #winelover #winelovers #winetime #winebloggers #wineoclock #vinhosdanossavida #espanha #espana #bodegasberonia #vinhoespanhol #rioja #tempranillo #gracioano #spanishwine

Albariño

Do you love white wine and are looking to expand your tastebuds? Albariño is the star white grape of the Rias Baixas production region, which makes some of the country’s best whites. This grape produces dry, light, and citrusy wines that pair fantastically with seafood dishes.

El Jardín de Lucía es de Eulogio Pomares de Bodegas Zárate en Rías Baixas. Es puro albariño de color oro pálido límpido y brillante. En nariz tiene aromas de flores blancas e intensas notas de cítricos como la lima verde y la piel de limón, con delicados recuerdos de hierbas aromáticas como el hinojo y la menta. En boca tiene una textura envolvente y sedosa, recorre el paladar vivo y fresco con una armonía perfecta. Deja un recuerdo muy placentero y persistente marcado por notas ligeramente salinas y de caramelo de limón al final del paladar. Un vino refrescante y seductor que será el compañero ideal de pescados ahumados, platos de pasta, arroces, marisco fresco y crustáceos. Tómate una copita en casa hasta que podamos salir a disfrutarlo fuera😜😜 Lo descubrimos en @lagmanrestaurant , un local de ambiente muy cuidado, música ambiental perfecta que hace que te sientas muy a gusto mientras disfrutas de unos platos de 10!! Os lo recomiendo 👍🏼👍🏼 #vinoblanco #eljardindelucia #bodegaszarate #albariño #foodiebcn #foodiesbcn #instawine #lagmanrestaurant #thetasteofaspanishlady #winetime #winelover #devinos #

Cava

Are you a fan of the bubbly? Cava is Spain’s equivalent to France’s Champagne or Italy’s prosecco, a sparkling white wine which is just as fun to drink as it is to mix with fruit juices and other ingredients to make wine cocktails.

Hablemos de las bondades del aceite de oliva. Uno de los aceites más comunes, disponible en casi todos los hogares en Chile, tiene muchísimas propiedades regeneradoras, hidratantes y suavizantes. Seguramente cuando te fuiste de compras para la cuarentena, lo que menos te preocupaba era el cabello, ya que no es una prioridad en esos momentos. Pero seguramente tienes aceite de oliva en tu casa. Mezclar una cucharada de aceite de oliva con dos cucharadas de mascarilla capilar o en ultimo caso, acondicionador. Lavar el cabello con shampoo, aplicar la mezcla de medio a puntas, peineteando hacia el crecimiento y masajeando el cuero cabelludo con las yemas de los dedos. Puedes potenciar el efecto con una gorra térmica o bien plastico film alrededor de la cabeza. Más tiempo queda en el cabello, más hermoso, sedoso y brillante quedará tu cabello. Eso es un maravilloso ritual de belleza , para que estés en contacto contigo mism@, en esos dias que estamos obrigad@s a estar en casa, mejor nos sentiremos si nos cuidamos . #santacharita #tipsdebelleza #cabellosano #cabellobonito #aceitedeoliva

]]> Madrid is one of the hottest cities in all of Europe. This buzzing capital city has a culture, art, and night scene that is absolutely to die for. Foodies that visit Madrid will also find themselves in love with all of the fantastic restaurants and food spots in this global alpha city.

Here are some food markets that you absolutely must visit the next time you find yourself in the Spanish capital.

Mercado de San Miguel

If you’re looking to go out for tapas, this might be the best place to go in the whole city. Housed in a beautiful early 20th-century space with iron and huge glass windows, you’ll find tapas from all of Spain’s unique regions featured in this market, located in the heart of Madrid.

Mercado de San Fernando

This market might not be as well-known or cited in city guidebooks, but the Lavapies neighborhood which houses it as well as the market itself is quirky and fun. Here, you’ll find a fun night scene with everything from beer bars to cocktail spots as well as plenty of tasty treats during the daytime.

Mercado de San Anton

In Madrid’s LGBT hotspot of Chueca, you’ll find the Mercado de San Anton, a three-level gastronomic behemoth that was re-designed and reopened in 2009 to great fanfare. You’ll find everything from fresh produce to fusion dining concepts here, all under one roof.
