Mercado San Miguel ........


Posted Image


Rumbaba .... "The San Miguel market in Madrid is a great place for sampling food and drink. I am not one for vermouth, unless as an essential ingredient in a classic cocktail but they have a range of draught ´vermut´in the market, which is delicious and, at EURO 1.5, including a dish of olives, is great value."


Mobson ...... " rumbaba....welcome home!

Did you find the particular bitters you were looking for on another site? If not, I can help!"


rumbaba ......... "Check out the free cocktail guide available from Waitrose. Written by Simon Difford, top cocktail person (not only because he gave my cocktail the maximum 5 stars in the Difford Guide). It's an excellent introduction to cocktails for beginners and it's free. "

After the week I've had, it's fair to say today that I'm feeling rather like a Zombie! Putting on the telly to see if the F1 at Silverstone had started; BBC2 Something for the Weekend's barman Wayne was mixing up a drink with that very name, a drink from the Tiki culture....this is what he made.

Yes thanks caissier, it's lovely to have somewhere civilised to have a tipple!

RB, thanks for the nod on the W free cocktail guide....So, did you find your bottle of Peychaud's bitters for a New Orlean's Sazarac?
