"Fire" Chorizo & Chili Tapas



The village of Orce is around 3000 feet above sea level making the weather somewhat cold in the winter months. The area also has its own micro climate so the weather is also very changeable.



...and when it snows, it snows!



We usually get snowed in at least once a year, ok though as the local farmer does his rounds and digs out the residents with his JCB



A quick tapa (only for the brave) to warm you up on a winters day.

*Orce "Fire" Chorizo
*Liver or Ham
*Green chilli



Keep a cold drink handy...!

Do you believe I bought chorizo from France as I cannot get any in Greece? Maybe we should start a business together... The tap looks really hot!!
