Itinerary
Meet your local foodie guide in the heart of the La Latina neighbourhood. Keep your eye out for a yellow "Carpe Diem Tours" sign.
Try Spain’s award-winning omelette stuffed with goat cheese and served with freshly baked bread and an ice cold beer to wash it all down.
Indulge in Spanish culture with “la hora del vermut” while sipping on a vermouth cocktail splashed with Campari, spritzed with gin, and served with orange garnish. Talk about happiness in a martini glass! While sipping, snack on manchego cheese, a Basque-style “gilda”, and fuet, a cured Catalan sausage.
Bite into a one-of-a-kind squid-ink sandwich, stuffed with fresh calamari. Wash it all down with a glass of Abuelo’s sweet wine.
Nothing says Spain like “chorizo” and at this stop you’ll try sizzling garlic mushrooms stuffed with fried chorizo and served with a glass of tinto de verano.
Finish the food tour with a classic Spanish dessert: churros and piping hot chocolate!
