London Paella!

Hello or Hola is the same in this case,

last weekend there was a Spanish streets food festival It's called "Streets of Spain" situated in a wonderful location; in front the classic Big Ben always on time and bach the marvellous London Eye with the sunglasses becouse there was a sunny day!

In the middle almost fifties stands, caravan, and food truck who served a fresh and tipically spanish food like tapas and more.

We started with a classi Tortilla the Potatoes very good it was nice and soft and a good piece for three pounds!

The second stop we taste a small Bocadillos with dry tomato, salad, squid and sweet paprika...good the ingredients but I prefere a hot bread, It was could, my vote is 5!!!

We continue to walking around the festival with many kinds of ham (serrano or iberico but to expensive for me, 100gr for more than 10pounds...next time, probably in Barcelona!).

Our attention is for the anchovies on bread with fantastic sweet tomato jam...fresh and flavorful!

In the middle we decided to buy two big glasses of fresh Sangria...too small in my opinion.

On a big billboard we can read Barcellona Bomb!

This has been the funniest food experience in the festival, the bomb very crispy outside and sof inside was an deep fried octopus and potatoes and onions ball with a fantastic light wasabi mayo on top...my vote is 7!!!

But one is enough!

Our mission was to find a very good Paella and we succeed for half!

We found a medium good live Paella there was two flavos, one with fish and another one with chicken is name it was Valenciana but I know that the real Valenciana is a mix of meat and fish...but remember the title of the article...London Paella!

They prepare the paella live in a big pan like a spanish style but the only problem it was the frozen fish...we prefere the fresh...the rice it was "al dente" and for italian like us is very important.

Vote for the paella is 6.

We spent a lovely afternnon in south bank between sangria, live music and Londoners...but next time i want tell you a story about a real paella!

I raccomand this festival becouse Spanih are good people and they know how make a good FIIIESTIVAL!!!
