"make them feel like a posh tavern that they will remember until they die. In how many places do we remember a single dish eaten minutes ago! The same does not matter if they are tripe, malvices, woodcock, marmitako, fish soup, ajoarriero, rice with clams, veal snouts in sauce, zancarrón with tomato, stewed tail, potato scramble with truffles or hake in green sauce with clams, all dishes seek accommodation in memory and there they stay still forever.
