I love Spain for their tapas and gastronomy. Is the only country in Europe that can make me feel like home because of the language. I should go more often 😍
It all looked delicious, but as a Spaniard from the south, it seemed sooo expensive to me! I will take into account when visiting Madrid though, so thanks for the tips
Just came back from Spain and I could only make it to two of the restaurants on this list (Fide & El Doble). The food and drink recommendations were amazing. Can’t wait to go back to Spain and try the others on the list. Than you for the great recommendations.
Hola! Really good informative and entertaining videos you have, i''ve been watching them during office hours, haha! My sister and i will be travelling to Spain in a weeks time! We are still a bit apprehensive and worried about the Covid situation there, more so on the fact that we are travelling from an Asian country and definitely do not want to cause any trouble at all :) But your videos have made us more at ease and sparked an excitement and an adventurous spirit to explore and immerse ourselves in the Spanish culture and WE CANT WAIT!
Always look forward to James and Yoli taking us to the best Tapas bars. James, I see your Devour Tours advertisements here in San Francisco, Ca. Great job as always, Thank you for sharing.
Another amazing video James. Jose and I are here in Madrid right now so we will probably give one or two of these a try. Great job y'all always make me laugh too. 😁
It wasn't vulgar tuna, but "ventresca" (tuna's belly), wich is the best part of the fish. Google "lata de ventresca de bonito" and you'll see its price. It's quite expensive.
Love your videos, James!!! Thanks for sharing all of the awesome food explorations. Keep 'em coming! Also think I spotted your vlogs used for some shots in the Devour madridfoodtour.com ads in youtube. So so cool!
Went to Fide on your recommendation James. Miscommunication and lack of Spanish speaking skills meant we ended up with a bottle of red and white wine rather than a glass of each. What the hell we’re on holiday and spent the whole night there rather than moving on to your other recommendations m. It was fun night
I'm starving now James! What beautiful tapas! I have to go to Madrid now, all your fault. I'm going to Barcelona in December, Xmas time. I should be following some of your advices (Barri Gothic historic places including those Christopher Columbus steps ...), and I'm going in one of your Devour tours, Evening Tapas & Wine Tasting. Have a lovely evening, Salut!
Love it, another great video. Need you to venture to Valencia please, and also to some of the small towns near it - I am moving to Oliva (from England) really soon... 😁😁😁
en cuanto ví las etiquetas con los precios de las tapas me quedé roto. Vete a León o Ganada, por poner dos ejemplos, los pinchos son gratis con la consumición, y aunque no tan elavorados como algunos que muestras ahí, son buenos.
Not at all! Tapas is whatever you want. It’s not an appetizer. It’s a much looser concept than that. Check out my old video about what is tapas (just search on RUclips for that)
@@spainrevealed thanks I will check out the other videos. I love your videos. They make you feel like you are actually there with you eating in Spain ha ha.
Hello! We’re coming to Spain in December so we’ve been watching ALL your videos. We’ll be visiting Madrid, Sevilla, Cordoba and Granada. I have a quick question. We don’t drink. What are some good non-alcoholic beverages served at all these tapas and pintxo bars? Thanks for all the great info. ❤❤
What's it with the red carry bag dude? How about a stylish leather carry all. Love the energy of you two. God bless you both. I am so into Spanish culture.
Canal ameno, divertido e instructivo. Como sugerencia estaría bien que hicierais un video recopilando comentarios de personas no españolas sobre sus reacciones cuando os ven saborear tapas que a la vista, o sabiendo los ingredientes les pueden parecer "scary"
I enjoyed Chamberí and C. Ponzano too. But after being sick for nearly 3 months in 2018 from eating raw beef (in the U.S.A.), I will never eat chuleton or tartar again. Please cook it!
10:36. Next time tell them that you don't want the potato on the pulpo so you'll get more quantity, otherwise you'll end up paying the potato at pulpo price 😁
You do not get fat since you are on you feet all the time, LOL I am going to visit Andalusia during Christmas. Move and live in Spain in a few years - my goal and future:)
Food looks beautiful but would be totally out of the reach for any tourist who is on a budget. You need very deep pockets indeed to eat with the locals.
The quality of bread seems not so important for them, say if I compare it with their neighbour country's bread, is this just my observation and if right how come?
Pues porque una tapa de boquerones 7 euros es carísimo. Y el otro plato que aquí en Valencia se llama esgarraet 15 euros para mi es un engaño. La caballa o atún no lo aprecio bien que ponen es de lata. Me parece muy caro. Yo no lo hubiera pagado. Es más me parece un abuso.
I want to say smthg: I lived in madrid for 25 years (my best ones of my near 32) now I live in Zgz, where I was really born, and I’ve compared prices and 🤯 SO EXPENSSIVE!! Come to Zaragoza and try Ámbar beer and any other local tapas as migas a la pirinaica or costillas de ternasco so you can make a comparisson and enjoy differences between other cities. I love your videos, you both are funny and a lovely couple 😊
@@RudraDirtTrails when you live here you can considere that price abusive. 15-20 € is a regular price in a restaurant with first class ingredients for a salad. North Spain is where you can eat absolutely fabolus with a lot of good restaurants and a complete collection of Michelin Starred ones. BTW, because of my former job I've travelled Spain and a half and Madrid is one of the worst places to have a drought beer: too much froth, no consistence, poor gas and tiny glasses. Second BYW: usually potatoes go UNDER the octopus so they can get all flavours.
Hello :) I traveled many times in Spain and I'm a big fan of your channel, but I'm kind of surprised by the prices here... are tapas usually that expensive ?
Realmente no. Las tapas se regalan con la bebida. Lo que se cobran son las raciones (y las medias raciones). En algunos bares especialmente "modernos" los precios de raciones o medias raciones son más elevados. Si vas a un bar tradicional, un bar normal, los precios son mucho más asequibles y sin embargo la calidad es excelente. El plato de pulpo a la gallega del video, por ejemplo, tiene un aspecto sensacional y está a muy buen precio. Cuando lo he visto no he podido evitar salivar, la verdad. Por cierto, lo propio en Madrid es acompañar las raciones con cerveza Mahou (la que toma casi todo el mundo aquí). Se hace con agua de Madrid -que es muy pura- y es una cerveza magnífica.
Can you do a video on international food in Madrid? I’ve noticed a ton of restaurants with food from around the world here and I want to know what’s good!
Seems quite expensive....first 3 tapas add up to almost 30 Euros....that’s about $45 CAD. With the beer and wine imagine it’s well over $50. That’s expensive for a small drink and a few mouthfuls of snacks. Do this in 3-4 bars and you’ve spent $200 CAD
Good things are expensive everywhere. If you want to pig out on cheap tapas there are places for it too (El Tigre comes to mind immediatly), but quality is not cheap.
@@robert111k Imagine paying €15 for canned tuna, a tomato and some onions and then have the naivety to call that "quality". It's called a scam and you fell for it.
@@thomasdemoor874, there are lots of different qualities in canned tuna as wall as in tomatoes (the same as in cheeses or truffles). Get informed on the subjet and you'll see.
@@robert111k Oh, I'm quite informed. I've lived in Spain for over 20 years. Canned tuna is an absolute disgrace. You need to inform yourself about decent quality fresh tuna, which you clearly haven't eaten if you think canned tuna is good. Thank me later.
Hola James, te quiero decir que tus videos me han ayudado muchísimo! Me matricule en un intercambio a España en el verano y tus videos me han enseñado la belleza del país. Gracias!
Why oh why was I born in the UK where bar food consists mainly of a packet of crisps, nuts or pork scratching and after drinking all night the best food you can get is a doner kebab that Turkish authorities would say is illegal if it was served in Istanbul
Hi James. Appreciate your awesome videos, very informative:) Everytime Im in Madrid or Barcelona I struggle to find which tapas places are open after 12AM, as my flight almost always arrives late. I know most tapas bars close at 12, but some are open and serve food later. Can you do a guide on those? Cheers.
@@spainrevealed Yeah. I Barcelona we went to a tapas bar called Navia at the end of Carrer del Comerc which served food until 3 AM. In Madrid there was a place called Matador where we also had some food after 12 AM. Its just hard to search on google maps for late night tapas bars. Dont think its possible to filter and search places with opening hours. If you are able to find some and make a list/ video it would be awesome:) Have a great day!:) Cheers
No se como llegué a tus vídeos pero ahora es un vicio, no paro de verlos, me ayuda mucho con el ingles !! Una pregunta, que camara usas para tus videos, un abrazo !!
Hey James, I followed your advice and ended up at El Doble, I was very surprised to see that a ración of cold gambas (1/4, about 7-8 pieces) costs €30 there. Are you sure it is not a (tourist and local) trap? I felt robbed honestly, especially when I saw in another of your videos that in Lavapiés there is a place called El Boquerón where 4 gambas cost €3,50... Would be please to know your opinion. Thanks cheers, Nico
Hi Nico - there are different types of gambas. The ones you saw at el doble were probably gambas blancas de Huelva. VERY famous and very expensive. The ones at boquerón are cheaper. El doble possibly had the cheaper ones too.
We will be in Madrid in January. Any advice on where to and not to stay? We plan on staying near the city center. We want to experience the small towns and villages outside of the big city also. Any advice would be truly appreciated! Great videos!!!
A lo mejor quisieras ver un sitio nuevo al final de Ponzano. Se llama Charnela y especializa en el mejillon. Es un sito muy agradable, dirigido por una pareja joven con mucha pasion y energia...
Oh yeah, indeed, eating, drinking, bars and restaurants are not your first topic? However sweeties, you are good and it is a pleasure to watch your reports, go on this way and good luck to both of you!!!
Wow Spain is more expensive than I thought. Order some of those dishes and some drinks and you're running a tab of €40-50 a head. That's too much for a simple standing meal.
LOOOOOOVE Ponzano... :-D for the friendly people, the food,... and (a bit of topic,) my favourite trailrunning shop used to be there + the Suunto repairservice too. You've got to do some sports after all that eating, no?! ;-)
I'll be in Madrid in March thanks to you and Yoli. I'll also be in Seville for Christmas and New Year's - thanks to you and Yoli. :) Please try to do another Seville episode before I arrive! Love you guys.
Hey James and Yoly! I'm in Madrid right now for a short stay and have been using your videos to inform my food choices for days! Reading up on flamenco now (on Yoly's website) and happened upon this video just minutes after it was posted! Looks like I might be changing my plans for tonight/tomorrow!!
Wow, when I started watching you earlier this year, i think you were at 6k subscribers, now you're over 5k! Congrats!!!! 😁👍🎈🎈🎈 totally well deserved. Love your vids and you and Yoly are the best.
Am Cuban too and my dad was born in Galicia and I could be a citizen because one of my parents is Spanish by birth,but am ok with US citizenship...anyway,go to www.expatica.com/es/moving/citizenship.....good luck.
Si tu madre es cubana... no te van a dar la nacionalidad por ello. No rebusques que no hay más. Si tienes tú la nacionalidad cubana y resides legalmente dos años en España puedes pedir la nacionalidad española, eso sí.
I’ve learned so much about Spain thanks to your videos. I plan on visiting Spain next month for the first time ever. Keep up the good work. Thanks for all your tips and suggestions.

Tbh the 2 traditionals were the best and the only one I would go to. Nothing beats a traditional spanish bar
Totally agree with you. I didn't like the modern cuisine tapas at all.
Absolutely. Those nr.2 and nr. modern thingies, being all inventive and "posh" - no way. Absolute no-go.
Hola! Really good informative and entertaining videos you have, i''ve been watching them during office hours, haha! My sister and i will be travelling to Spain in a weeks time!

Yes and 18€ for the pulpo...vaya tela...
Gracias James and Yoly. Un fuerte abrazo.
Totally with James on the Boquerones.
They were killer at El Doble!
0the more I see your videos, the more I want to just move to Spain for the food!
Thanks on my way and salivating very helpful
Wow!!! What a place. I think many Japanese might get jealous with that kind of sashimi
A good variety of foods look yummy. Good job u and yoli are big foodies enjoy thanks for sharing a good informative video
It's a torture! You make me hungry.

you are suuuper!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love this!! Will try some when I’m there next week:) can you make a video about desserts in Spain??

Fish & chips 😂😂😂
Amazing video as always!
Wait a minute i thought tapas is what you eat before your main dinner. How do you eat tapas on top of a maindinner?

I need to go back to Madrid asap! And spend all my tie in tapas bars! lol
In Galicia they will go mad if they see you eating pulpo with a metal fork. Never!! Always wood. Use a toothpick.
Ok!
También se dice que los gallegos nunca comen pulpo fuera de Galicia...
Exactamente, amigo
Thank you for putting the prices :) ...we will look for slightly cheaper options
I enjoyed Chamberí and C. Ponzano too.
But after being sick for nearly 3 months in 2018 from eating raw beef (in the U.S.A.), I will never eat chuleton or tartar again.
Please cook it!
Great vlog!!! What is up with the red shoulder bag tho?
Why am I watching someone else eat great food? I have to make better choices in life ;-)

Food looks beautiful but would be totally out of the reach for any tourist who is on a budget. You need very deep pockets indeed to eat with the locals.
I have observed you do not chew your food.
Onions are high the C

Surely thus was filmed in several days . No way two skinny people line you two can eat that much ! 😳

In Puerta Cinegia Market you'll find amazing food for half price
el bar de los champiñones en el tubo!
I am curious to know what is the bag you carry around. And what is in it.
A tomato, onion, pepper and tuna salad that costs 15€ got my head spinning. Truely ridiculous prices
It's his business logo bag.
@@RudraDirtTrails when you live here you can considere that price abusive. 15-20 € is a regular price in a restaurant with first class ingredients for a salad. North Spain is where you can eat absolutely fabolus with a lot of good restaurants and a complete collection of Michelin Starred ones.
BTW, because of my former job I've travelled Spain and a half and Madrid is one of the worst places to have a drought beer: too much froth, no consistence, poor gas and tiny glasses.
Second BYW: usually potatoes go UNDER the octopus so they can get all flavours.
Off the beaten (tourist) path but Ponzano is just 2.5 km. from Puerta del Sol...
For foreigners watching this, potatoes with alioli or mayo ARE NOT bravas.
The brava sauce was underneath - you'll see it if you watch a little longer.

This is quite a pricey neighbourhood. There are a lot of cheaper places around. Quality is good here though.
Spain Revealed - James Blick thank you for replying. I guess it’s the same in every city. I need to do more research.
