My second visit to Getaria, fishing village outside San Sebastian, less gastronomically famous but a hotbed of fantastic grilled seafood spots. Whole turbot, green salad with tuna, vinegar cured anchovies and whole scorpion fish, what a dinner! #Travel #food #foodie #spain https://t.co/HVcsz1OC7A
First day on Camino Norte hike in Spain, just wrapped 17 mile leg from San Sebastian, looking forward to well earned dinner! #Travel #food #hiking #spain https://t.co/mibqbJztvh
The Gilda, named for a Rita Hayworth movie, is arguably the most classic of all the pintxos (tapas) in San Sebastian, Spain's culinary capital. Perfect combo of peppers, olives and anchovies, awesome #Travel #food #Foodie #Spain https://t.co/P1i8Ceq83d
