Gordecha in Gallego in Goian 5/26/2012

You know you're acculturated when you can go with a group to see a play in an outlying town supporting Western Sahara...and it's all in Gallego!  And, you understand nine tenths of it!  Of course, the theme was women and how they treat each other in the workplace...obviously an international similarity!  I went with about 12 people from my hiking group with Cristina and Fernando.  After the play, we went to an old post office that has been converted into a restaurant - complete with a garden and beams so low that I had to duck to walk through the restaurant.  As we usually do, we ordered the house wine - which comes in carafes or unmarked bottles - and several types of tapas to share.  They had some different and delicious ones:  salmon pate, sheep cheese blintz like creations,  skewers of some sort of pork that was well-seasoned and a delicious tortilla espanola.  All for about $10 each!  No wonder I never go out in Austin....more expensive and I have to drive!  OK, next post will be trip to Germany....
