Pata Negra

Our last night in Portland Scott wanted to take us to a Spanish restaurant that he had been to before. It was wonderful with all our Spanish favorites cooked like we remember them from Barcelona! Let's here it for garlic shrimp (gambas al ajillo) and grilled vegetables (escalivada) and tortilla espanola (potato & egg omelet) and croquettes (yummy little fried vegetables & chicken)! I treated myself to a couple of bites of Crema Catalana (Catalan custard with a hard cooked sugar top)! They even had the wonderful little green olives that I loved from Spain. And I didn't gain any weight! Amazing!

Scott's friend, Halley, went with us. She is a student and soccer player at the University of Portland and is the girlfriend of his friend Logan who is now a professional soccer player in Puerto Rico. That sounds strange but it is true. He just signed a contract with the Puerto Rico Islanders.
