El Puertito

Yay Tripadvisor is my friend. Super fresh oysters, it’s like a rustic Swan Oyster.

Chuleton de Buey

Charcoal grilled rib steak for two. Apparently steaks in the area are from old cattle — which are therefore tastier. It’s surprising how different this steak tasted, in comparison to a prime US steak.

Rare meat!

Nom nom nom. I was entertained that they didn’t even ask what doneness of steak we wanted. Rare or rare!

Baby Broad Beans

On the side, baby broad beans with foie.

Bilbao!

Guggnheim Bilbao

I’m in Spain! Bilbao to be precise.

The museum restaurant, the Guggenheim Bistro was surprisingly good.

And some of mom’s dessert —

Tiramisu!

A main, dessert and drinks for €18.

The museum itself was mostly meh. :/
