Central Market and Magic

Our very full day started out with a class in the market led by chef Jordi Morera and then a tasting of olives, olive oils, hams and cheeses followed.  Jordi showed us how important these are in Spain and how there are varieties and levels of quality that make a difference.  Here is a link of a NY Times article that mentions Jordi (we got him last summer for the first time before this article came out.)

We stopped in at La Lonja, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and then we returned to Jordi's restaurant for a great, imaginative Valencian lunch.

We met up again for a night of magic and dinner.  Through a good friend of mine we managed to get a private performance with some of Spain's top magicians.  It was a fantastic end to what was one of the most complete days of Woodberry in Spain history.
