Afterwards we dined at Restaurant Botin which has been operating since 1725. We were privileged to receive a tour of the “house” and were led through packed diners to the cellar full of incredibly dusty wine, 3 floors of restaurant which was packed to the brim of Spaniards. It was my first 11pm dinner reservation so I feel very spanish now. They still have ‘siesta” where businesses close for lunch anywhere between 1:30pm and 4pm. We farewelled Jaime our tour leader and agreed to meet for one last breakfast of chocolate churros in the morning.
