What a great evening. We had the chance to try a couple of things (meatball with almond sauce, if I remember correctly and the bull's tail). Also, I appreciate the Silvina shared a lot about Alicante's history and culture as we walked our way to the next restaurant. One thing I was not prepared for was the amount of wine tasting during the course of the evening, and I couldn't walk straight on the way home at the end of the evening haha. I'm happy to have taste the bull's tail, the fio gras that was paste like, and I discovered a particular liking to Vermut thanks to Silvina. Recommended!

An interesting and fun trip. I was afraid I wouldn’t manage the whole tour, since I have some illnesses, but the pace was perfect for me. The guide told us some personal experiences and made it worth all the steps
