BAR
PORRAS
Local
bar, the oldest bar in the village, almost 100 years old, it's the meeting
point of the village people, can be a little noisy and the TV is on
always. But if you wish the good tapas, you are in the right place.
My favorite is a glass of Manzanilla wine (very similar to Jerez), with
a plate of "Jamón Pata Negra"............. If you don't
like it, bring it to me; I am just across the square. From the bar you
can see the view of the painting in my presentation.
