Random thoughts from an unconventional Spaniard in the States

Food wars: Japan vs. Spain

At the beginning of the month of December, I visited a Japanese shopping mall near Hoboken, right across the river from New York City. The food court there was simply amazing. The different shops had many of their products on display covering the walls, as you can see in these pictures. They all seemed both exotic and delicious to me.
A principios del mes de Diciembre, estuve en un centro comercial japonés cerca de Hoboken, en las afueras de Nueva York. La zona donde vendían comida es realmente impresionante. Cada tendero muestra una especie de reproducciones artísticas de los platos que ofrece sobre las paredes exteriores de su tienda, y todos tienen muy buena pinta.





On the opposite end of the "exotic-ness" scale, last weekend, I went for a walk in Madrid with my parents, and I saw a pretty nice tapas display on a bar at the Plaza Mayor. You can judge for yourselves.
En el otro extremo de lo exótico, la semana pasada mientras paseaba con mis padres por Madrid acabamos frente al escaparate de alguno de los bares que hay en la Plaza Mayor. Las tapas y raciones tampoco tenían mala pinta, como podéis comprobar.





What would you rather have for dinner? The choice is yours. The fact that no one can deny is that, perhaps due to our well-known passion for jamon serrano, Spanish pigs are treated better and enjoy a much fancier lifestyle than their Japanese counterparts. Here is the proof.
¿Si pudieras elegir, dónde preferirías cenar? Para gustos hay colores. Lo que nadie puede negar es que, quizás por el amor que todos profesamos al jamón serrano, los cerdos en España viven mucho mejor que en Japón. Y para muestra un botón.
