Thursday June 11
We couldn't resist - went back to Txantxangorri for lunch, and had the tuna and bacalao salad again, plus a big roast vegetable platter with beef slices and goat cheese, and a shrimp remoulade.
Dinner was the big ASMOSIA banquet, at Les Voltes, whose great attraction is that its downstairs banquet room is in fact one of the barrel-vaulted supports of
the ancient Roman circus. The only way to handle these huge events is just what they did: put the wine (both red and white) on the table, send around big plates of appetizers (chorizos, cheeses, peppers, etc.), and give everyone one of two main plates, which allows Barbara and Holt to share. In this case, it was fish and duck, and both were pretty good.
