Eating & Drinking in Spain and Portugal
Spanish and Portuguese Menu Translators and Restaurant Guide (Europe Made Easy Travel Guides)
Description:... Even people who speak passable Spanish or Portuguese can have trouble reading a menu. Although you may know that the word for fish in Spanish is pescado, you might be surprised to discover kokotxas (fish glands, a Basque specialty) on a menu. If you think of it in terms of English, can you imagine a foreign traveler who speaks basic English and knows the word for meat, understanding what prime rib is? Or a porterhouse? Veggie platter, anyone? Buffalo wings? Sloppy joes? There are always strange and unusual items on a menu. With this guide tucked inconspicuously in your pocket, you'll know where to dine and boldly go where you once feared to enter. This guide not only helps you find your way around a menu written in Spanish or Portuguese, but also will help you find great places to eat the unique and wonderful food of Spain and Portugal. Eating & Drinking in Spain and Portugal (fourth edition) includes: - A comprehensive Spanish-menu translator - A comprehensive Portuguese-menu translator - A great (and down-to-earth) restaurant guide Including Barcelona, Madrid, Seville, and Lisbon - Advice on restaurant etiquette - Short pronunciation guides - Opinions on everything food-related, from what to eat to where to get it...
