Spanish fling
Such a grá (amor!) does he hold for Spanish food and wine, it would be no surprise to find Iberian DNA in The Menu’s genetic makeup and his notion of a perfect skite is the class of ‘pub crawl’ favoured in northern Spain, a glass of wine, a tapas and then on to the next establishment — a splendidly sociable evening without the more punishing aspects of the Irish version (ie, drink now, tamp down later with deep-fried substance, possibly edible). Which is why on his next trip to The Smoke, The Menu shall be hitting the Campo Viejo Tapas Trail running until August 19, visiting four restaurants, for three tapas and a tipple of Campo Viejo Reserva in each, all the while enjoying Spanish-themed entertainment, for a paltry 20 bucks! www.facebook.com/campoviejoireland or www.campoviejotapastrail.com
