The Gastro Traveler
Испания
Добавлен 25 фев 2013
Well hello there and welcome to my channel.
My name is Luke Darracott and I am a gastro-guide, wine-tasting giver, food and travel writer and TV presenter living in Madrid.
Through my, somewhat sporadic, videos I aim to show off the food and culture of Spain - and wherever takes my fancy - in an honest and zero-BS way.
Enjoy and salud!

Michelin-Starred Bacchanalia in the Wine Lands of Ribera del Duero!
Another day, another video.
Another video, another dive into wine country and Spain's food scene.
We (me and my business partners) were lucky to be invited to visit Pago de Carraovejas - an amazing winery whose vinos we have been selling for years - and to eat at their Michelin-Star restaurant AMBIVIUM.
We then high tailed back to our village of Curiel de Duero to drink lots more wine and eats lots of cheese and cured meats.
The escape was finished off by a brief stop at endearing Peñafiel.

WINE EXPERT Blind Tastes Spain's CHEAPEST Wines!
Просмотров 8033 месяца назад
So, after many conversations in my wine shop with customers and professionals there is still an agreement that Spain might be the best country in the world for price to quality. But that doesn't mean that THE cheapest wines are the best. The supermarkets sell bottles of wines for under two euros. These can't be good right? Well it's time to put them to the test. 6 wines from 6 supermarkets, tas...
Salamanca/Ciudad Rodrigo: HUGE Tapas Tour of the Western Frontier!
Просмотров 7913 месяца назад
Time for luxury. Time for golden streets and ancient buildings. Time for tapas. It was a real joy to return to the gorgeous city of Salamanca - by far one of the prettiest in Spain - this time armed with a camera and a Laura. We stuffed our faces, sure, we watched the European football final, sure. But we also added a prelude. I had always wanted to visit Ciudad Rodrigo, only a few kilometres f...
Andalucía Adventure #2: Malaga!
Просмотров 7834 месяца назад
After the hot hinterlands of Córdoba province (with a dash of Seville), it's time to head south further towards the coast and revels in the majesty of Malaga province. We take in villages Cabra, Zuheros, Luque, Priego de Córdoba and Inzájar before relaxing in the elegant capital. Then to wineries (Sancez Rosado and Almijara) and villages white and blue (Júzcar, Parauta, Cómpeta, Salares and Com...
Andalucía Adventure #1: Córdoba!
Просмотров 6854 месяца назад
Part one of a huge foodie adventure through the provinces of Cordoba and Malaga! On this first leg we head to the spectacular city of Córdoba with its beautiful old town and UNESCO mosque. But there's also time, of course, to hit the pueblos: Montoro, Almodóvar del Río, Aguilar de la Frontera, Estepa, Carmona and Écija. There's food, there's wine, there's white walls. Anything else needed?ç Tho...
SORIA: 16-Stop EPIC Tapas Crawl in Spain's 2nd Smallest Capital
Просмотров 9905 месяцев назад
Soria. Most people haven't heard of it. People who have either haven't been there, know nothing about it, or have passed through on the train or bus somewhere else. Error. This might be Castilla y León's most perfect short trip food-filled, untouched city. Steve and I gorge ourselves silly as we enjoy the ancient churches, friendly locals and placid Duero waters. You really should get off that ...
TOLEDO! 6-Stop Food Tour around a Medieval UNESCO gem
Просмотров 6985 месяцев назад
TOLEDO! You've heard of it. You've read about. You may have been. You've probably seen videos about it. So what could I possibly add to the pantheon of tourist videos? Well, perhaps not much. Some interesting food spots, some nice views, a bit of history and our irreverence. I put off doing a Toledo video forever, because I thought it too obvious. But Laura and I went, ate, drank, and saw Toled...
DIVERXO: Eating at the 3rd BEST Restaurant in the WORLD Before it Closes!
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Well. This was it. My white whale. DIVERXIO, 3 Michelin Stars. The brainchild of mad punk chef David Muñoz. Now I would never ever normally be able to go to a place like this, also, as per the channel, my vibe is usually rustic local places. But, I was lucky and honoured to get an invite. You don't say no to an opportunity like that! What followed was a meal as spellbindingly confusing as it wa...
Semana Santa in Madrid! What to see and where to eat!
Просмотров 5337 месяцев назад
Semana Santa. Easter. Holy Week. A speciality of Spain's religious calendar. Most people's minds head to regions like Andalucia, but every year Madrid has become far more popular as a location for Easter. Processions, drum cavalcades, virgins and Jesuses. Everything is on offer. But also Laura and I wanted to show off the foods usually eaten at this time of year. So from Maundy Thursday, throug...
Ribera del Duero: Villages and Wines!
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.7 месяцев назад
An escape, a brief bit of freedom, to the third prong of the holy trinity or 'Rs'. I did Rueda, I drank everything in Rioja and now it is the turn of an adventure around Ribera, Ribera del Duero. This wine region, not even two hours north of Madrid, is in the heartland of Castilla y Leon. As well as hundreds of kilometres of vineyards there is a dazzling array of towns, villages, castles and ca...
Rueda: visiting Spain's most FAMOUS white wine region!
Просмотров 81811 месяцев назад
Something a little different to the traditional video. A professional winery visit with my business partner Roque Madrid to Bodega Javier Sanz out in DO Rueda. Rueda is the country's premier white wine region, producing Verdejo wines that are found in almost every bar in the country. Is that good? Well, that's a debate for another time. But they are important wines regardless. We were lucky to ...

Food, wine and scenery porn - excellent watch as always 🍷
The sights, the sounds, the flavours! Looks like an incredible day 🥰
Typical tourist clown atitude. Crap video
Always happy to see a Gastro Trav notification. Thanks for the new video. It’s been a little while… Hope all is going well with the book, Luke!
Cheers man! Not had much time to do anything recently! Book is pending for a spring release!
Amazing! Everything!!
How did you get there, and where from, please?
Qué contentos!
A very good and informative episode. Thanks for doing this. I am not a wine enthusiast but I really do enjoy a good, satisfying glass or two. Could you do some comparisons of different price points? Say, 5 to 10€ and then 10 to 15€ perhaps? A comparison of whites would also be great I would think. Salud!
Yo tampoco soy fanática del McDonald's, Kentuky chiken, etc. Etc.😅
Ah! Y los ingleses destruyendo en España, un puente Romano, ciudades fronterizas con Portugal y destruyendo San Sebastian en 1814. Porque? Pues para hacer daño al pueblo español. 😔 De aliados....poco. Demasiado displicente con los comentarios, demasiado "soberbio". Te crees por encima del bien y del mal.
Americans!
I enjoyed this video very much. You have a great sense of humor. I absolutely love Extremadura. I wish that more viewers had liked this video.
@@teddydavis2339 Cheers Teddy!
Now, now, ol' chap, I think Maidenhead is a perfectly good place for tourism. We are Americans from North Carolina, and when we came to England for our one and only English vacation ever in 1999, we made Maidenhead our base for visiting Southeast England and Calais. It was lovely. I'll never forget ordering sardines in a pub there. It had eyes! I couldn't eat it. My idea of sardines are tiny, headless fish crowded together in a can covered with mustard sauce, so imagine my surprise when the waiter put in front of my face this big, silvery fish with eyes! Unforgettable and a very British moment. We loved England and Maidenhead. Thanks for the memories.
That's made an easy decision for me. I'm going to dtay there for 3 nights on my 2 week motorcycle tour at the end of September. Any other nice small towns with history and good food you can recommend. Im heading west to east. Thanks
"Let's hope I can drive" "Me too!" Haha brilliant.
Nice video. Outside Murcia, I recently saw miles upon miles of lemon trees, many of which were left unpicked. I'm guessing gastro stands for gastronomy rather than gastroenteritis ;D
Los habitantes de Numancia eran celtíberos, originalmente eran celtas , luego se mezclaron con los iberos. 😊
Si no ha ido a los pinares , le falta la mitad de Soria, la otra mitad el mejor románico de España. La Catedral esta en Burgo de Osma.
Esa zona está en otro vídeo. Así que tengo las dos mitades.
Porqué no en Español? 😢
This was excellent and the sheer look of panic on the first wine was priceless, this definitely isn’t mine but is good and this might actually be really hard 😅 Cava next please 🍾
We have been waiting for you to do something from your shop (and from your profession). Loved it! Please make it routine. "Sunday Night Sips" with Laura and (sorry, I don't know/remember your name). This is in your wheelhouse! Please capitalize on it! Thank you for the work you do.
Sorry, Jenn informed me it is "Luke." There you go: Sunday Night Sips with Luke and Laura. 😊
Charming.... BTW bobal in Utel-Requena/Manchuela can be super delicious.
Yes please let’s have one on sparkling wine por favour
More videos about widely available and (reasonably) affordable wines, please! The wines we bought in your shop were absolutely excellent but were impossible to get in our area. Cheers!
Hi, great video. I am also big fan of your podcasts. My friend who is going to Spain very often always drinking that Mercadona wine sending me a picture saying that I should try and I tell to myself when I come to Spain why to drink that 1€ wine while there are lots of amazing local, small production wines. According to your points, he realy found the best value wine of Spain and he is righ! 😂
I love kalimotxo! It's a great way to use bad red wine. It's also a great way to sneak booze into somewhere that won't let you bring any with you. Thanks for another great video!
Very informative, but ,moreover entertaining. If I'm in Madrid, I'll come to your shop! I did not know you traded 🙂 Gracias Tony p.s the cola and wine combo won't win me over!
Like myself i also eat and drink too much lol. Going to granada next year and cant wait to get stuck into the food, also cañas❤
you should definitely do more of these. Super cool. 5€, 10€ and 15€ price points maybe? Since wine is so cheap in Spain. I live in Valencia and I get a wine usually from the Mercadona. I really dont know what im doing, but i am enthusiastic.
Hi Where is your wine shop? We are in Madrid in August. Might swing by.
Hey there! I’ve popped the address in the description :)
Yeah Great Video 🎉 you should be sponsored by the Spanish tourist council
Laura already knew Spain was going to win!!!! Yea for Laura!!!! EXCELLENT video!
Again, I'm saying the same thing: I enjoy your videos! You need a sun hat, Luke! Wot no Panama!?
lol..."it's coming home"...(your new home)
Win win ;)
Thanks for another great video, Luke & Laura!
I'd love to see a video from Oviedo. And Canaries. And Girona. And somewhere in the Pyranees - maybe Andorra? And trips to other Spanish speaking countries one day cos why then hell not - say a Buenos Aires or a Cartagena or a Oaxaca
There is about Andorra! :)
@@thegastrotraveler found it!
Many thanks for your lovely video of Salamanca brought back wonderful memories.
"Jesus is LAZY!" Have some respect.
Why?
@@thegastrotraveler Because it's offensive. Try that with Muhammed. Go ahead. We'll wait.
@@Alexander-dt8sk It’s not really offensive is it 😂 Which reminds me, must check out more Spanish mosques…
@@thegastrotraveleronly a singular region genius(Al-Andaluz - Andalucia). Why do you think reconquista occurred?
@@geoboy700 What’s your point?
What an excellent journey!!!! Montoro, Estepa, Écija, Carmona, Aguilar de la Frontera And Córdoba of course ❤❤❤❤❤. All the British tourists should follow your steps to really enjoy And understand this part of Andalusia, not only to go to Torremolinos or Marbella that are more famous Because of the beaches And nightclubs 😏. Thanks for sharing the video !! O gracias de un cordobés jeje, you only missed Montilla monuments And vineyards 👏
Nice video. Thank you for visit the subbética villages ( Cabra, Priego, Luque, Zuheros, Iznajar) they are beautiful And historical ! Enjoy Málaga a lot 💪💪💪👏👏👏
8:06 that’s what I am talking about !😂😂😂 it was a pleasure having you here and cocking for you guys 👍
Still loving these videos. Could you add subtitles though? Pain in the arse to work through perhaps but without a microphone I'm finding myself attempting lip reading, feebly
Whilst you were eating the goat it looked like you were being eyeballed by a goat on the wall behind you 👀🐐🤓👍 Another fantastic download, thanks for sharing.
Good stuff. Was a bit taken aback by the smurf town!
You still need a hat!!
Cool video lads, gonna definitely try some of those places thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey. It's certainly made me put Cordoba on my must visit list. The food and wine didn't look bad either 🍷🧀🍖👍🤓
